I am sorry for your loss. I can sympathize, when I was still in law school i had my nano on top of a bookcase... and watched the bookcase sway, topple, and collapse. I kept the survivors in a 4G lobster pot (yes, ironic I know) with a power filter and the live rock for 4 days, then went and...

Wendy, I am so sorry for you loss. As a fellow bird person, I know how devastating it can be when we lose one of our feathered family members, even more so when we lose them unexpectedly. You, Hunter and Quincy are in my thoughts and prayers. Nikki

That is absolutely georgous, congrats.

We got new fish at MACNA!!!!! We will post pics tonight. ;D

Welcome back to the fish world! I had success keeping a false perc with a damsel and a goby in my 10g for several years, if you add the clown last, you should do ok with two fish in that tank. Check out the nano thread to see what your fellow small-tankers are doing. Nikki

I've had some success with territorial clowns by essentially quarantining them inside of the tank while a new fish gets settled. Essentially, I added a large glass container inside of the tank with netting secured over the top to keep the fish in and feed/allow water exchange through, and kept...

Can you post a pick of the calcium on your tank walls? I have tiny feather dusters that spawn in my tank that settle and grow EVERYWHERE including the glass. they start by looking like little white dots, then gradually you can see the pretty red crowns on them. You may have something similar if...

One more thought and several more questions... Tangs primarily feed on algae, and your tank might not have been up and running long enough to support a tang. When did you add the tang? how is your algae growth? What kind of anathia did you lose? How long did you have each of these fish before...

I am no expert, but here is what I see, and the questions that your post raises in my mind. MNAT did not mention that your copper is very high. Where did you get your water from? If you are mixing how are you mixing? what kind of salt? RO/DI water? Distilled? Tap? Did you buy a used tank/live...

While keeping your big tank would certainly be nice as I'm 100% sure you can do more with it than a nano, I have to point out that a nano can be kept for a fraction of the cost. Over the course of a year, I spend less than $20 a week on tank maintence for my 20g. Thats it. In the last 12...

Welcome to the Nano world! As far as tanks go, I'm very happy with my little 20G high. It is no where near as much of a visual impact as some of the fancy tanks out there, but I have had pretty good luck with it over hte years. I would be most concerned about lighting for a small tank- I have...

Re: Looking to give away 1 green paly frag w/15 polyps, 2 watermelon mushrooms 0 Great Pic Greg! Thank you for treating the palys for Mike, and i hope you enjoy the Zoo frags. The colony you fraged from is looking great today, the blenny was making himself comfortable in the empty space earlier...

They are free to a good home as they are cluttering up my little 20g tank. For pics of the mushrooms, take a look at the "Her 20" thread in the Nano forum. The mushrooms are attached to a seashell and a small piece of rubble. The palys are attached to a plug. They are green with white centers...

Thank you for the PE recomendation. We picked up the PE on Tuesday, so far we have fed it twice (Rod's two times, PE slated again for the third time tonight) and the Blasto has not lost any more flesh. No real increase in flesh yet, I'd imagine that will take time and pristine water. The...

I'm on your side... and you LOVE me. :)

C'mon John, just because you've learned my tricks does not mean you need to tell everyone else :) and the saving clause is: "This Agreement is the entire agreement and superceeds all prior agreements between the parties. This contract will be interpreted in accordance with the laws of the state...

my 20g tank seems to do really well with water changes of about 15% every ten days. It is open top, so I end up adding RO/DI into the refugium to keep specific gravity constant every 2-3 days.

for anyone who has been following along, the Stretch Armstrong Paly on the right side is now the cluster of palys on the right side... and has its superhero attibutes

Hi all, I bought a candy cane frag from OG in April with two heads. It now has four, and I was really excited about how well it was doing, but about three weeks ago our air conditioning broke... and the little 20G nano spiked in temp. I came back from being away to find that the tank was 86...

I'm sorry for you loss, looks like it was a lovely fish.
