Hallooooooo I can get stars anytime from the LFS I work at so not too big a deal there, but would like to see if they would take frozen urchin or starfish. We've got it in the store now and its been munching on a chocolate chip star that got put with it for about a week now. Not a pair...

Hallooooo Has anyone had any experiences with these shrimp? I am thinking about getting one, but would like to know how people like them. Any successes getting them to eat frozen urchin at all? I can easily get stars and urchins for them but would prefer to feed them frozen stuff if at all...

Halloooooooooo Okay so I've got to re set up the reef tank now, stocking from scratch again more or less. The plan is still the same as far as the corals are concerned, mostly mushrooms and polyps, maybe a small anemone and a few other little corals (as of yet undecided). The tank I...

Halloooooo Thanks wade, you got it right on the nose.. did a quick search of burrowing shrimp and sure enough I found a pic the one I have is an Axianassa sp http://www.nhm.org/guana/bvi-invt/bvi-surv/shri-g04.htm http://www.nhm.org/guana/bvi-invt/bvi-s ... 02060p.htm thanks again Ghost

Halloooo again the body looks pretty long and thin for a pistol shrimp, almost more reminiscent of the body shape of a mantis shrimp but with different claws. the tail is wider than the body. Ghost

Hallooooooo I was looking into my refugium today and found this big shrimp digging in the sand.. Unfortunately no camera so can't give a pic its about 1" long, with most of that being tail, white body with a pink/orange stripe down the back. 6 legs + 2 claws, the right hand one being large the...

Halloooooo I was wondering if anyone has any experience with these fish, their maximum size, reef compatibility etc.. I have a 90 gal that I may begin setting up as a reef in about 5-6 months time and was thinking about doing a small school of lyretail anthias (Pseudanthias squamipinnis) 1...

any suggestions? thanks Ghost

Hallooooo I have a 30 gal hex, with about 50-60 lbs of live rock, various polyps and mushrooms in it. The current inhabitants are a bangaii cardinal, black cap basslet, gold line neon goby, 2 gobiodon histrio, coral banded shrimp, anemone crab, boxing crab, various hermits, snails. I am...

halloooo again Thanks again, I will do some more looking into it, I might just add a few more mushrooms or small corals. Ghost

Hallooooooo Whereabouts in Ontario? I know in Ottawa there is a nice little marine store on Carling Ave. called Marinescape. Besides that there is just the Big Als for SW in Ottawa. Ghost

Hallooo I've been trying to find out a couple ideas for an anemone for a small tank. Right now I have a couple of little rock flower anemones (one only the size of my pinky nail). I am not planning on getting any clown fish so I don't need a host anemone, but I am looking at getting an...

Hallooooo I will definately be keeping an eye on the hermits and I am trying to get some Cerith snails. I am still trying to find out about the lighting so I will also look into the 250. Any other comments on stocking levels of the reef crew? Thanks Ghost

Halloooo I've got a 30 gal hex tank with about 40-45-lbs of live rock and a good 3" of sand (with about 5-6lbs of live mixed in). I have 1w/gal of lighting at the moment and am planning on investing in a 175W MH. I am wondering about what kind of cleaning crew that I should build up in...

Halloooooo Thanks for the advice, I think I will give it a try and let you know how it goes. Ghost
