nipping

Sad. I really liked this fish too. Good luck to my fish trap lol...

Have a pair of storm clownfish one black the other orange and the black one is a tad bit on the bigger side. Since day one they have always been by each other’s side showing no ounce of aggression. Just recently I’ve noticed the orange clown with a nipped causal fin. After some observation at...

My wife recently picked up this beautiful clown. Not sure what kind he is but his pattern is quite unique. He was sold as a “premium” clown from Petco at one of their magnet stores meaning they get all the good stuff. Their tanks are pretty immaculate and they even have saltwater specialists...

just got a bunch of corals sent home. I have acans, torches, zoas and Duncans that the angelfish does not eat. BUT, my newly added scolymia is often being nipped at by my angelfish. THE VICTIM: THE PERPETRATOR: What should I do? it is taken a very harsh toll on the scaly sadly. no...

I love the way that Emerald crabs look and I think they are pretty fascinating to watch. I’ve also read they are great for keeping algae in check. I just added two small ones into my 20 gallon cube tank and one of them IMMEDIATELY went to my blasto frag and started cleaning the base. In a ten...

Hi guys, I have two ocellaris clownfish. One black/white and regular one. Black is smaller and always being attacked and trapped in the corner.I have never seen him vibrate. The aggressor sometimes vibrates. From what I have read the black one should eventually start submitting and the...
