I have yet another problem. It would be great if someone could help me. Last weekend i purchased a scooter blemy to add to my tank. I now have a regal tang, 2 cleaner shrimp and some blue legged hermit crabs. Last night i noticed one of the cleaner shrimp was picking at the scooters tail. At...

Thanks for your replies but this problem cleared up weeks ago. After a few days the white spot cleared up. Thanks anyway.

Thanks for the posts. Unfortunately, i just moved all my live rock and found him dead at the back. :( Dont know what caused this as he seemed to settle into the tank very well. He was feeding well and was definatley not been harrassed by any of my other fish (regal tang and powder blue). If...

My tank is 96ltrs. I check and look at the tank everday and i cant remember seeing the clown looking sick in anyway buts its possible i just didnt notice.

The tank is 96 Ltr. To get a hostpital tank set up, it will cost much more than the cost of all my fish put together. I think ill just ride it out. The store i get all my stuff from assures me thats its mainly caused by stress and it will clear up in time. My clowns arnt showing any signs...

I am thinking of getting my first coral. In my tank i have a puffer fish, dragon wrasse, parot fish, manderin shrimp and a blue legged hermit crab. I have live rock also. Should i purchase a protein skimmer before i get some coral? Or firstly, are my fish compatible for coral? thanks
