Hey all, Who here has had success with long term keeping of Copperbands? Also do you think they would clash with a Singapore angel? Thanks!!

thanks guys!

Thank you!

Hey all, I am contemplating covering the 75 tank..... Which fish are known jumpers and which ones arent? Or is it even logical to not cover tanks? I have a 20 gallon thats been uncovered for over 2 years and never had any jumper fatalities......out of my OCC. clown pair, tail spot blenny, yellow watchman and up till a month or so ago included a rainfords goby as well. Thoughts?

Thank you!

So.....my pencil urchin seems to be a magnet for hair algae. Some of his pencils are covered....issue or not?

Welcome back. I'm not really sure why WAMAS has slowed from @ 10 years ago.....I took a break also and dabbled in freshwater and reptiles....but realized my true love is saltwater. I was amazed I remembered my password here

If.....You end up parting it.....I would love the rock.

Maybe your Pistol shrimp identifies as a Mantis? Seriously tho...i just recently picked up a tiger pistol from BRK and him and his watchman buddy are doing fine. I do try and make sure food makes it near his burrow. B.

Good deal!

Sublime, When youve used ReefCleaners did you utilize their free shipping , which is not overnight....and if so did everything arrive healthy?

There is also a lesser known specie, the Pitho Crab who is said to like bubble algae. I am seeing that its either the males or females emeralds that prefer the BA? anyone else seen or heard that? Also I've always been intrigued about the popping of the bubble algae that creates the spread? I am sure the emeralds pop them? Also? B.

Hey thanks! So lets cancel the firefish (known jumpers and frantic behavior) what would be another consideration?

Opinions please, Right now in my 20 gallon , which has 20lbs of rock and a 3 inch aragonite base, I currently have 2 Occ. Clowns, 1 rainfords, 1 tailspot. The rainfords and tailspot are best of friends. The clowns just do the clown things. Everyone is happy but I want to add another fish or two. Was considering a yellow watchman and Firefish. Thoughts? thanks!

Thanks everyone!

Hey all, Whats a good filter feeder food, a food for feather dusters, clams, scallops and the like? Many moons ago I used microvert by Kent....but I'm sure that stuff is prehistoric by now? Thanks!

Thanks everyone!

Hey all... Those of you who don't run chillers what temp. fluctuations do you see in a 24 hour period? Thanks!

Great info....will explore some ideas. Calcium was low, probably due to us being gone for 3 days. Tank sitter just replenished evap. water. Water change in the works.

Everything else seems happy. Lamps were replaced in September.

Hi all, So I have a very large healthy macroalgae but over the past few weeks it has decided to fade on top? The only thing I did was switch a t5 bulb from a ATI coral plus to the purple plus.....Would this be the reason? Thoughts?

I am a big fan of Sixline wrasse. I want one so bad but my 20 gallon is, in my eyes , too small considering I have two clowns, a tail spot and a Rainfords goby. There are alot of designer clowns out there but I guess I am boring....I like the old school Ocellaris Clowns.

Hey all, Its all in one area....and they are spreading in that area. Going to look into a few more emeralds as I only have two. also going to be plucking them off in the meantime. My question is what exactly do bubble algae feed on?. Its the only nuisance algae left in my tank everything else has gone through its own stage and disappeared. So irritating!

Need some help- Removing the rock to get at bubble algae is not a viable option. I am going to try and pluck them off with some feeding tongs but I have to ask! If they pop does that mean I am doomed?? HELP!

Thats Beautiful! How old is the Tank/Silicone seal?
