You take a creature from the ocean and put him in a box and you say your box is better because its two feet longer. Keep the fish and enjoy him.

Dude you don't have to get snippy. All I am saying is that adding all that livestock in the time period you did can also cause the problems you are having. I believe in waiting at least two to four...

3 weeks is not enough time either and there definitely are right and wrong ways to set up tanks. Sorry I am not saying what you want to hear but that is my opinion.

It definitely matters what his stocking habits are and he did stock too fast. Adding all that live stock two weeks after the tank cycled is bad. Period!

Of course he was teaching those values to that child. Most racism and hate is taught. Any normal human being would be disgusted with a person who would do something like that.
Oh yeah and I agree...

I think any kind of loud music will stress fish in an aquarium just as any sudden movements too close to the tank make them skittish.

I wouldn't mix clowns either. As for the anemone I would wait about a year. The clowns will be fine without it while you gain valuable experiance and you tank ages.

When you put the nori on the clip try cutting it in thin vertical strips so that when the tang grabs a piece he will only rip off the single piece and not the whole piece.

Thats cool To each his own. I just find its quicker to add salt to the container and have it ready right away rather than add salt and wait for it to mix.

Stevenpro
I dissagree with you about what you said. I think it is easier and quicker to just add more fresh water to the mixing container to lower the salinity than it is to raise it.
