    IMO how to set up a tank to be immune and have healthy fish.

    I'm a firm beleiver in healthy tank/ healthy fish and corals. I also beleive that stress has a lot do to do with illness. Many get sick when taking a plane- I think it's more about stress than being exposed to germs/ viruses. In over 4 years I've never quaranteed fish., never had any problem...

    Nuisance Sponges

    I've had a sponge in the overflow chamber since the beginning, it looks like white tree roots. I just noticed recently that it's almost gone. There is a huge asterina star in there- coincidence? Or maybe the asterina eats sponge- the walls are covered with spirobid worms and there are some...

    Oasis aquatics year anniversary

    i have to agree with @Salted. I stopped by once by myself- they just got a shipment of fish and were so excited they didn't even know I was in the store. Second time was with Tom, 3 of them never left the counter, even when we had questions- corals were overpriced, same with fish. I prefer to...

    40 has water in it, but hasn't been run in ages- would have to do a complete new cycle etc. Actually thought about it since things seem to be doing well in the 70, but it's Spring and I'm busy with other things now- should have happened 3 months ago when I couldn't walk lol. I have lights...

    Bubblegum Digi

    I'm new to being able to get sps to live neverless grow. My bubblegum digi 's right arm seemed to die off at first and I was thinking it was dying and was tempted to cut the blackish stick off. The frag is now showing signs of new growth at the bottom and the 'stick' seems to be growing- leave...

    Melanurus Wrasse

    I've had it for almost a year, now full grown- beautiful fish, but I think my tank is too small for it- 75g with a lot of rock- it spend most of the day doing laps. I think it would be better in a 90/120g. problem is catching it- I can't/ won't pull the tank apart to get it- then when I do catch...
