(ALL GONE)
I'm moving across the country in a couple months and am having to break down my tank. Now that I have unloaded a decent chunk of my corals, I'm starting to sell off my fish and inverts.
I'm happy to be super transparent, as I'd like these fish and inverts to go to fellow hobbyists...

Im 95% sure my fishes have gill flukes. Started with a new fish added. Head twitching, swimming into wavemaker, scratching side of head/gills on rock. So i started hypo @1.009 like 5 days days ago. I did see some change. Fish were scratching less. Fw dipped my scopas(culprit), foxface and coral...
Ive had this tang for 5 days now. Since the day i got it, it has been doing these 2 things. Along with my other tang and angel but these two not very often. Quite rare to see them doing it now but still happens. I suspected ich or flukes so i started hypo at full 1.009 yesterday evening. They...
I wanna get a yellow mimic tang for my fowlr but i read that many people have no luck keeping them cause they drop dead from cyanide poisoning. Particularly the ones from the Philippines. How do i know if the fish was caught using cyanide? Will they show signs of cyanide poisoning in the lfs...
Today I noticed something strange on my Foxface Rabbitfish. His behavior is normal and he’s acting fine. There are small-medium spots scattered on his side and they look brownish/beige. They are like nothing I’ve seen before as it doesn’t look like ick or anything else I can think of. It’s only...
I bought a foxface that looks like it banged its lips up on the glass pretty hard and the skin tore abit. Its nothing serious that i can see. Unfortunately every foxface had abit of their lip skin torn. Im guessing either happened when in the exporter or in the lfs. The fish just arrived...
My recently purchased bubble tip nem seems to be having some problems. Only 2 days old and looks to have shrunken/deformed spots??? Also stretches for light a lot? The light seems okay for everything else.
Hi, so I just started my 15g AIO cube with a friends 8 year old sump live rock that’s got tons of bacteria on it and copapods. I was given as a gift 2 clowns and a green bubble top nem. Tank is only a week old with the 8 year old rock, bacteria filled sea water filled, and dr Tim’s was used as...
Tank is about a week old. Used bacteria live sea water, and a buddy with a 300 gal gave me live rock that’s been in his sump for 8 years filled with copapods. Seeing this algae that almost looks like burnt rock. Is this normal?
I bought a blue eye tang about 10 days ago and put it in my 50g lagoon while i was preparing space to set up a 120g wide(4x3x1.5) lagoon to replace the 50g one so i can keep a tang or two. Yesterday i made the switch over to the 120g and put the tang and other fish in there. The tang didnt pace...
Hi all - I could really use some help here. I have a 15g nano cube which had 2 small clowns and a royal gamma (soft and lps coral too) up until yesterday. Had the clowns for about 2 months, the gamma maybe one month.
I just got the water box 20 cube as a small upgrade and new home for them...
So I’ve had this pair of clownfish (long fin and black storm). Up until this point they have been paired and have had no issues with them for 10 straight months. All of a sudden the female (black storm) started attacking the long fin, I didn’t think too much of so I left it alone but the next...

Hey Guys! I'm not new to the fish hobby but just got into saltwater. My tanks been up and running for 4 months now and my parameters are all within the desired specifications.
However, I've had quite a fallout with multiple fish...
Lost 6 and this is the latest. Mind you, I haven't lost any...
Hi All,
I'm in the process of deciding what size of tank to buy. For me, fish are equal important to the tank as corals are, and I would like to have a lot of them.
I wondering what the real max amount of fish in a 4 or 5 feet long tank is. I know the usual answer for this is max inch per 3...
Going to be setting up a 24 x 24 frag tank. (no SPS)
I have a couple questions
1) is it sustainable to have this tank operate without fish?
2) what’s the best way to get enough nutrients in the system?.. use filtration to strip it and use dosing, or would feeding the corals be enough? (setting...
I have a Midas named Sherbie of whom I’ve really grown to love… their quirky personality, the way they swim, their color, their big blue eyes, and how chonky they are is becoming one of my favorite parts of my tank… what do you think of yours? Feel free to share pics ❤️ here is mine (:
We had a brooklynella break out in our tank. We lost a few fish before we figured out it was brook.
Here’s the history of what we did while we tried to treat and figure out what was wrong:
We lost our first fish Nov. 7th. On Nov 11th I put my hand in the tank without shoes on and got shocked...
Fish Nutrition – Short Bites
Proper nutrition of captive fish is a very complicated subject. Virtually everything known about this topic is derived from fisheries science and therefore is related to growing fish for human food – where the fastest growth rate is most important. Long-term captive...
As much as I love my tank, unfortunately, I just haven't had the time to keep up with it in the past year. I am looking for someone in the Central Florida area that would take the entire setup. (I don't want to part it out and get stuck holding a partial aquarium, so i'm selling stand, stock...
Aiptasia took over my tank after a crash 10 days ago after the corals died. Now i only have a candy cane and one small colony of favites. Aiptasia for some reason grew so fast and big during the crash. Thinking of adding a aiptasia eating filefish to clear the aiptasia before i add corals. When...
