First of all, read what I said. When these snails fall over, they have a hard time righting themselves. When they're on their back for a couple days, they tend to die by starving. And with 300...

Also a good point... I don't know that the snail in my picture would have ended up dead. I do know that snails have died unexplained. But that could be normal after introducing 200 at one time. ...

Could be... I'm going to keep an eye on the snail that I removed. I was assuming that the worms were killing the snails. But I guess this snail could have easily pulled away from this worm, or...

Bristle Worms hard at work...

So, you think bristle worms aren't that destructive? I used to think the same thing until just a few hours ago. I never had any problems with them and told fellow reefers to not worry about them. ...

I have 4 tangs (well all of my fish) in a 30 gallon hospital tank now treating with Coppersafe. The Ick was gone within about a week. The Coppersafe will kill the free swimming form of the Ick. ...

All of the above reasons is why I am treating this way. I quarrantined the PBT for 4 weeks before putting it into my display tank. It was ick free and healthy until about a week after putting it in...

Wish me luck....

Well, I've had my 180 reef set up now for almost 5 years and it has been doing very well. About a year ago, I successfully introduced a powder blue tang to the tank. Ever since then, he's had an...

I guess I'm one of those "evil" people. Hard to argue against experience. If I do a 10% water change a year, I'd be surprised. I'm baffled every day at how much people throw away money by doing...

I had an achilles for about 6 months before it starved itself. The biggest problem with them is that they are a more timid tang. I had mine with a more aggressive red sea sailfin, morpho and purple...

I bought that clam about 5 years ago for $20.00 when it was about 3 inches long. Now it has grown at least 7 or 8 inches. I'm pretty amazed at how quickly it has grown, too.

Now you have to...
