Nothing is attacking him, he is kind of pulling away from the edge of his shell. Around the outside. And he does not extend his mantle as much as he use to.

My Derasa clam seems to be shrinking and does not look good. Any ideas? I have had him for three months and he has been doing great. I dose the tank with kent's calcium and also phyto-plancton. The tank is a 90 gallon and is lit with metal halid lights and flourescents. He is located at the...

My maxima clam looks to be dying and I have noticed there is an aptasia connected to the side of the clam's shell. Does anyone know if the aptasia could possible be stining and killing the clam?

If you want to catch the tang, wait till the lights go off and then get out the flashlight. All you have to do is locate him and scoop. I use this method all the time when I need to remove a fish from my reef. It takes just minutes rather then hours.

I've had them for three months now, caught them in florida, and am planning to go trade them in tomorrow to the lfs for something to put in my 90 gallon. Wasn't planning on keeping them this long, but I kind...

Any one else with experience

My next question would be should I remove the whole rock and place it in another tank or could I pull the eggs off and put them in one off those hatcheries you use for fresh water fish and keep them in the main tank? Also what is the best method to feed the newly hatched fish and what should be...

I am so excited! My clowns a couple of days ago laid eggs and are now taking care of them. I can actually see the babies eyes and bodies in the eggs. I have a couple of questions. First how long does it take for the eggs to hatch and second do I have a chance of them staying alive. Do clowns...

Thanks for all the input. and for the link to Reef Central. I did acclimate the linkia's for five hours. So far they are doing o.k. I purchased two from captive bred corals.

Just wanted to know if anyone out there has had luck with keeping the blue starfish or are they something to stay away from?

How long should the nori be soaked in the garlic water?
