The eel I am referring to has a maximum size of under 10 inches and according to the book I have, a gallon rating of 20. My tank is a little below that, but I do also have a 10g sump. Based on this,...

Oh, and also the growth of algae is just nuts with this lighting system! Obviously my ten hermits are inadequate for this task, what should I look for in a CUC? In the future I was going to put a...

My tank does not have a sump, are you suggesting theres a skimmer that would fit in my filter? Haha I would take a video but unfortunately no camera... it is just boggling because I have no idea what...

Really? Nobody has any insight?

Hello everyone, I have currently set up a 16g Aqueon bowfront marine aquarium, with hopes of turning it into a nano reef system. It is not technically my first marine aquarium, but the first I am...

I've caught them and put them in my stone crab tank, they stayed alive for a few days until Kratos ate them. So I'm not sure if they need actual air too to survive but they did for awhile so its...

Most pet shops with SW sections should have snails.


Also this is a bit off topic but I have a Stone Crab named Kratos!

Thanks so much everyone for your responses. This is definitely a project in process and we are taking our time and will acquire all the necessary equipment over time, and I will be sure not to skimp....

Hi everyone, I've been a member of this community for a little while and have had freshwater aquariums since I was a kid, but now I'm making a venture into saltwater. My boyfriend and I got a deal on...

Florida stone crab, Menippe mercenaria.

Does anyone have any experience in keeping stone crabs? I've been looking for information over the web but am having trouble finding anything of any use.

Hey guys, I started off my tank with beach sand and fake castle ornaments and plastic plants.. now I have a silicate tan sand with live plants, driftwood, and one rock cave that looks not too...

Ok, that makes sense. I try to stir it up but I guess I don't do it enough! Thanks a lot everyone.

I have a uniform tan sand in my tank... but when I clean it and some from undernearth is sifted up, its grey. Why did it change color and is it still ok? It is a silica sand I bought from Wal-Mart.....

Ok.. this is my first attempt at a planted tank. I have 30 watts for it, and there is this gross black hairy looking algae on all of my wood! Then some spots of algae starting to form on the walls.....

What should I put in the water column? I did have a 15 watt bulb and everyone here told me it wasn't enough. I'm not sure what else I plan on adding but I would like a sort of "grassy" plant to cover...

I found two 15 watt fluorescents at Wal-Mart with 6500k which I have on the tank now, and it looks so much better. Will these lights be sufficient?

I have looked at the local PetsMart and they only have generic lights, like the ones I have now. Thank you so much NickFish, you really did make a lot of sense with your input.

Let me clarify,...

My local Wal-Mart has a ton of female Dwarf Gouramis! I couldn't believe it, I got quite a nice girl there for my male... she is a real pretty sleek silver with orange and blue remnants on her sides.

Its two fixtures and it can handle up to 25 watts per which 50 watts would be too much for my tank... I figured two 15s would be fine but the bulbs I have suck. Any good sites where I could order the...

Ok, I want to have a thriving, planted tank. It is definitely a work in progress. It is a 16 gallon bowfront tank, taller than it is long, and since it is a bowfront it has a specific hood. Since the...

Hello there.. I currently have a 16 gallon bowfront tank which is taller than it is long. I have two Emperor Tetras, two Dwarf Gouramis, one Cory, and two Otos. I do plan on getting another tank but...

I have a bunch of ugly brown stuff on my sand and my fake plants.. what is it? Is it a sort of algae? How do I get rid of it? My tank just recently cycled too.

Alright, thanks a lot everyone! I guess I overreacted, I just initially got the idea that a high pH was bad. I understand its probably not ideal but my fish seem ok and are pigs!

Also there is a...
