I am on the other side, I use live only. I use live sand, and instant cycle products, when I set up a tank, especially when there is livestock going in right away.

Hi Anthony! Welcome! You can post the Tang in the Don't Break the Chain forum and more people will see that you are looking for a home for him. For a skimmer, you can also look into a HOB; we had great luck with a hang-on-the-back Aqua-C Remora. If you join the club as a member, you will...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY! May the Raffle Gods be with you :)

Looks good!

YES to both. I've even got a (belated) birthday bottle of wine kicking around for you Darren :)

Kids are welcome. We usually get some age-approrpiate toys, so if you post your kiddo's age(s), that would help :)

They both swim upside down.

Nice! We have that exact tank tied into our system, and we love it. Very, very cool tank, and I think it will make a great display! In addition to using it as a frag tank, it also houses some neat fish- we have a blue stripe pipe fish in there, a bangaii cardinal I raised from a baby the size...

I have no intention of replacing our ELOS system in five years. That is exactly why we selected it, so that we would not feel we needed to replace it after a short number of years. It is exceptionally sturdy, and it is very well made. From the beveled edges on the glass to the rimless...

LMAO!!!

Sorry to hear about the blenny. If you add a wrasse, a cover would be a good idea. I like flasher wrasses for that size tank. The Tanka's and the Possum are also neat fish. Our porcelain crabs coexist with our wrasses. The crabs arrived first. That doesn't guarantee that the wrasses will...

Believe me, I know how you feel, I was out from 2000 to 2006, and that was a big learning curve for me too. If they are housed in larger tanks, with good water quality, their lifespan increases dramatically. French Angels and Emperors have been kept in captivity successfully in large tanks for...

In the 1990s, I kept a maroon clown, a butterfly, and two damsels in a 20g tank for 5 years, so I understand where you are coming from with your stock list. However, today I probably would not put the fish you listed list in a 90g, with the exception of the Gramma. The French angel is...

Feel better!

Yes they should be ok

As Barry said, take it slow. He knows clowns better than anyone else on this board IMHO. I paired maroons (a LONG time ago) using a breeder net. I kept the adolescent in a net for 2 weeks, then the female into a breeder net for the next two weeks, then the adolescent into the net for the next...

It sounds like you need a PAR meter.

We have a bunch of the rock dwelling porceline crabs. We have at least six of them, and we do actually see them. We got them in 2011 at Trop.

If you can remove the coral & inverts, I have had good luck with hypo.

Looks good!
