I have an exquisite firefish who is spending his entire day in his little cave because my bristletooth Tomini tang is bullying him. He used to come out for feeding time, but lately I’ve started spot feeding into his cave because he stopped coming out at feeding. This can’t go on forever because...

We have a couple saltwater tanks set up for a couple years now. But about a week ago, we recused a large amount of coral, a clam, and an eel. But the clam seems to not want to open all the way. We have all the coral and the clam in our rescue tank and everyone else seems to be doing fine. Any...

I've recently gotten a shy new tomini tang from diver's den. I have a 29 gallon quarantine tank but there had been an incident with my pair of captive bred mandarins. I had gotten a pair about a week or so before but my male was missing his right pectoral fin and was very small and thin ( I...

So 6 days ago I bought a blood red fire shrimp, acclimated it for 90 minutes and added it to my display (I didn't QT as it had been at my LFS for a month showing no problems and was eating well) Its eating when I feed the tank and found itself a cave that it never strays a inch from.

Looking for a little help with my shy fish. I had them set up in a 72 gallon and the they would come out to meet me all the time. My Blue tang would follow me up and down the tank. If I took my phone out for pictures he would try and get in the way and always wanted his picture taken. The...
