Monkfish is a favorite eating fish of my younger son. But since I sent him a photo of one, I'm not sure it is still his favorite fish... Note: monkfish do have peculiar reproductive methology ~ the male attaches himself to the female, and is then gradually and completely absorbed into the...

Welcome back to the fold! What is your location, and is there anything specific in reef biota that you are looking for?

Interesting stuff indeed! But are you planning to make any bacterial adjustments? And, if so, how will you do it?

Are you feeding them? I hand feed mine two or three times a week. In a well fed tank you apparently don't need to, but mine are still in my frag tank.

Hi Eric! Happy to say I've had no issues with the Purple. I'm surprised you still have the Desjardini - I may have to come back for it...

Eric lives in Montville NJ, 07045.

Sorry, that May 13th Meeting was in 2017.

I've programmed my Apex to change 5 gallons of water a day. My pre-made SW comes from a 120 I use for water storage. Hardest part is making 50 gallons of SW every week or two to keep a decent water level in the 120. I make the SW in a separate 50G drum. Note: I'm not using any dosing pumps...

Good luck with Roxanne! The Rosy Scales are my favorite, but I've had 2 or 3, but never had much luck with them. I likewise haven't done well with the Solarensis, or the Orange Flanked variety which are similar in size. I may try a Scott's Fairy Wrasse in the future, just because they are...

We probably don't have the same setup, but... I've got a 180 with overflows in both far corners. I've had fish jump into both of them. The height of the overflow is almost two feet, and one can't reasonably get a net into either at that depth. So... I added sand to the overflow and slowly...

What are the dimensions of these containers?

Using two Eheim 1262s. They're "set-em-and-forget-em".

My favorite walking fish to date is the Epaulette Shark:

When you say they have stepped it up, are you referring to their salt or fresh water?

I prefer to buy grass shrimp at Sea Level (Home). I pay $.25/@ there, but they don't always have them in stock - the supplier isn't especially reliable, especially in the summer. I also hit Ely's (Ely's Tropical Fish). They get their's from the Florida's Everglades, but they run over $1/@...

That's very curious - I recall thinking that the right eye might have looked a little enlarged, but I couldn't confirm it as I had to look at the fish from the top view, so I let the thought go. If you do go for it, you'll definitely need to get the staff to get it swimming around before they...

Saw that same Radiata today at AF. It didn't look bad to me - it was hanging out face-down/tail-up on a vertical piece of coral. Keep in mind that Radiatas are "shrimpers" by nature. You might need to feed it live grass shrimp to get it eating. I had one many many years ago. I got it to...

This was posted this afternoon on RC: Reef Central Online Community Owner is taking down a 210 this week. Caveat: don't ask him what he's got, just show up with buckets!
