Re: Finally - Pics of my FREE 100 gal. Tank
Thanks. I'll pick up some Nori. Andy has some at his house he said I could stop by and get. How do I feed it to him? I read stuff about veggie clips, but i'm not familiar with them. Go to Wal-Mart and go to the small asian section on the food side. They have a nice package of Sushi for like $3-5. L...

Finally - Pics of my FREE 100 gal. Tank
This was the tank posted on here about a month or so ago. It's set up with a few new creatures in it. Doing ok so far. I did lose a Thompson's tang due to ich and my Yellow tang has it now. He's improved as have all of my other fish that had spots. I'm staying on top of water changes, feeding them w...

Re: Live Aquaria Group Order
Thanks for the advice. I wouldn't mind picking up that 30 gal. if you want to send me a message with the details. The yellow tang is looking better; he has some spots but he's not too bad. He's pretty active and is eating. Out of those tangs you listed, I'd probably rather have the blue hippo and po...

Re: Live Aquaria Group Order
Well thank you all for your helpful advice without saying it in a smartass kind of way. I guess I should have gotten a larger tank then since most of the stuff I want requires an even larger tank. :( With the blue hippo, I was going to get a small one. The clown tang, I've kind of scratched off the ...

Well according to the a***h***s on Reef Central, I am going to kill all of my fish; just a matter of how stressful I am going to make them while doing it and that most of what I want will not do well in a 100 gal or smaller tank. I think I'm about done asking questions on these reef sites, especiall...

Re: Live Aquaria Group Order
I will check on here then over the next few weeks. If there's enough orders to get the free shipping, I definitely will want to order something. Still scared to order another tang but we'll see. There's tons of stuff I want from Live Aquaria. I'm going to go out on a limb and try a blue linkia since...

Re: Sick Tang
Thanks for the replies. What you guys posted regarding ich is pretty much what I've read. Although best, I don't plan on trying to quarantine all of my fish. I have close to 10 fish in my 100 gal already and would like more. I'm afraid trying to cram all those fish in a qt tank will stress them out ...

Re: Sick Tang
I'm finding in this hobby that there are tons of different options, opinions, and views on things. Some say quaratine is the only way to cure it and that if you don't have a quarantine tank, you should scrap the hobby. Others have never quarantined fish, and when they got sick, they stayed on top of...

Re: Live Aquaria Group Order
When are you doing the group order? If it's going to be a few weeks, I may order another Thompson's tang to replace the one I lost yesterday.
I need to do several water changes, get the rest of my fish over this ich, and let the tank stabilize a little more before I add anything else.

Re: Sick Tang
I lost my Thompson's tang yesterday and was quite pissed. They are unique and can be difficult to find at the LFS. I got mine at B&B, and he was about 50 bucks. They said they had him approx. 3 weeks and he was doing fine when I first put him in the tank. I acclimated him for 45 min to an hour a...

Re: Live Aquaria Group Order
I have seriously considered buying some fish from LiveAquaria. Their price sand shipping are reasonable. Reefs2Go seems to have prices more comparable to the LFS--not really any good deals. I'm wanting to pick up a blue hippo and a powder blue from LiveAquaria as these are often on sale and are dece...

Re: What Do You Spend a Month on Maintenance?
Thanks. I will post some pics soon of it set up in the house. I am going to pick up a few things for the tank today: a few fish, maybe some inverts, food, etc. As long as my electricity bill doesn't jump $100 a month, I'm ok. I don't think it will with this setup. This week I had to go down to Ft. L...

What Do You Spend a Month on Maintenance?
So now that I scored this free 100 gal. setup that's so far looking pretty nice, I'd like to get an idea of what each of you spend a month just to maintain it. This does not include buying more livestock. Thankfully, I have my friend Andy to help me with everything. I've heard this hobby can be as c...
