    Is this aggression normal (cardinalfish vs wrasse)?

    Hey all, I'm not sure if my fish are having aggression issues or if this is normal behaviour. Any advice is appreciated! I recently downsized from a 24g to a Fluval 13.5. In it I have plenty of live rock with many crevices, tunnels, and hideyholes, my corals (mostly small except for a "large"...

    Hanna Test Kit (1st Results)

    I finally pulled the trigger and bought myself a Hanna test kit (Salinity, PH, Nitrate, Phosphate, Calcium, Alk). I must say, overall, I am pleased with how accurate and easy these little guys are to use. However...(BIG HOWEVER)...the nitrate test had me having flashbacks to high school biology...

    Evo 13.5 updated stock to marine 3.0

    Was sick of the levels of white of the stock light. Wanted to keep the hood so I updated to the fluval marine 3.0. The fit is great but I am not 100% sure on pro settings. Any recommendations? Post your marine 3.0 settings below.

    Fluval Evo 13.5 stand

    I was tight on space and looked high and low for a good size match for Fluval Evo 13.5. Just wanted to save others time if they are in the same boat. This worked very well as an Evo stand; nearly the same size so little extra wasted space...

    Should I rescape?

    Hi, I’ve been having trouble with deciding whether or not to redo my Fluval 13.5 aquascape. This has especially been in mind since my last water change, when my big structure tipped and now feels like an accident waiting to happen. Here’s how it currently looks: I’m conflicted, because I...

    Will my set up support a Ponape Birdsnest?

    Hi all, my coworker is taking down his set up and offered me a baseball sized Ponape Birdsnest for free. I’d like to take it but only if it’ll do well in my tank. I wasn’t planning on sps for this tank, but i’ve heard this is one of the easiest. My issue is that I only have a fluval evo 13.5 so...

    Acan ID and questions

    Good afternoon, I would like any help on an ID on this Acan I just picked up. I was wondering if it is safe to put other acans on the same rock or what else would be safe around it. I also have a toadstool about 10” away, could that be a problem? I have a 13.5 gallon fluval. Thanks much everyone.

    Yasha Goby jumped into filter compartment, is he ok?

    Hi, Unfortunately today I found my Yasha goby In the back compartments of my tank (Fluval evo 50 litre). I quickly removed the media at the back and scooped him out, he then went back to doing his usual thing, swimming round the bottom. I then tried feeding him and he ate what he normally...

    Hi, I am getting a wrasse for my fluval evo 13.5. I will have it with 1 clownfish and a shrimp goby pair. I am deciding between a pyjama pinstripe wrasse or a tanakas Pygmy possum wrasse. Which would be better or does it not matter?
