He's doing quite well now. I was surprised at how much he did hide for the first month, pretty much only came out at feeding. At times he still retreats to his hole but usually not for very long. He...

I need to treat a Crosshatch Trigger for a cloudy eye. Both eyes have been cloudy since I got him. I thought once he went from qt to the display it would clear-up on it's own, but it hasn't. I want...

Thicker or not, your still creating a greater vortex (not a literal vortex, but you know what I mean) That sucks the surface scum as well as detritus from a distance a slow flow does not. Sure the...

I like a higher flow because the overflows skim the surface much better. There is a better oxygen exchange with higher flows into the sump. I also utilize the extra flow from the returns by spitting...

Overstocking to reduce territories

I have been noticing some comments lately claiming that slightly overstocking will reduce territorial aggression. Do many people buy into this?. Assuming adequate filtration, is there any validity to...
