So fast and its propagating? Upz for u bro.. never update ur tank thread?
-
should be posted at "Setup of a marine tank" Why not invest more on a proper nice looking tank rather for a so call local tank? Plastic tank get easily scratch also. With fish only, no need lightings (only for viewing pleasure) Rocks/sands on beach, infested with parasites. Rocks put in tank, will turn also smelly like rotting... unless dried ones still can go for a quick fresh water dip to remove parASITE. You can explore more than u can imagine with just only local fishes. Try a nice nano tank, start with some easy corals and fishes.. zoas and clownfishes. I started with one nano, now 2 nano already.. Hope u have a good start.

Ask yourself in the 1st place, why u are hosting a shark in ur 2.5 feet tANK? 2.5 feet tank converted to inches will be 30 inches, and u are hosting a shark that will turn adult approximately 41 inches in length. Expecting a full grown shark with 41 inches in a 30 inches of tank (2.5 feet)? Encourage you to do some readup before buying your live stock. Please feel free to look up http://saltaquarium.about.com/od/sharkprofiles/p/bbbambooshark.htm Advice you to give up the sharks to someone who can provide a better home. Average Size: Growing as much as 12 inches in a year's time, adults reach approximately 41 inches in length. Minimum Tank Size Suggested: 180 gallons. Habitat: Being a nocturnal, bottom-dwelling species that inhabits deeper waters where little light is present, the Brownbanded Bamboo Shark is light sensitive. Typically it stays hidden in an aquarium with bright lights on, and therefore should be provided with an adequately sized cave or light-sheltered space where it can hide. | Course textures can scratch this shark's belly, which can lead to infection, so it requires a soft sand substrate.

Cyphastrea and GSP? They are too close, likely they will sting each other. Not sure who will be the winner.. As for Sun coral and bubble coral, winner will be bubble. Some of my sun corals melted.. bubble tentacles only will be torn.. Nice Setup!

Help!! on clown fish
stevenchia replied to stevenchia's topic in Disease treatment/parasite/pest control
Hope this will help. Try get a pair choose one big and 1 small. TOMATO CLOWN (Amphiprion frenatus) The Tomato Clownfish is also found throughout the Pacific in association with the Bubbletip Sea Anemone. This clownfish has also been known to use coral in the absence of a host anemone. Another hardy clownfish that can attain a length of 5” in nature. Characteristics are one white vertical stripe behind the eye. Another clownfish that can be territorial and aggressive with other members of its own kind PINK SKUNK CLOWN (Amphiprion perideraion) This Clownfish is peach/orange in color and has one white stripe running the entire length of its head and back. Another stripe is located behind the eyes. They can be semi-aggressive toward their own kind and are easily intimidated by rowdy tank mates. They can attain a length of 4” in nature MAROON CLOWN (Premnas biaculatus) Known also as the Spine-Cheeked Anemonefish, it has a bold, red body color with a wide stripe on the forehead and white midsection stripes. The Maroon Clown can attain a length of 6” in nature. Another clownfish that is aggressive toward other clownfish and, unless you obtain a mated pair, are difficult to maintain sharing the same aquarium. Care must be taken when moving this fish as the cheek spines easily become tangled in mesh nets. Plastic perforated nets are recommended. Clark's Clownfish (Amphiprion clarkii) Clark's Clownfish, also known as the Clarkii Clown, is brown with wide white stripes and an orange head. The ###### fin is yellow and has a white to yellow tail and can attain a length of 6” in nature. These fish can be aggressive toward one another unless they are a mated pair. Another hardy and easy to keep clownfish. This fish is often misidentified as the Sebae clown, which is actually another species. False Percula Clown (Amphiprion ocellaris) and Percula Clown (Amphiprion percula) A. ocellaris is the most commonly kept clownfish and is found associating with anemones throughout the Indo-Pacific. In nature they can attain a length of up to 3.2” but rarely exceed 2” in our captive systems. These two fish are very similar and are sometimes mistaken for each other. The color patterns are similar but A. Percula is not as bright orange. The black outlines on white are also thinner on the Ocellaris when compared to the Percula. The Ocellaris is hardier than the Percula.Ocellaris clowns are much more common and less expensive than Perculas. -

Currently my 2 Juvenile picasso are only 1 month new to the tank. Color is still morphing. Still feeding them hard to gain their body mass. -

stevenchia replied to stevenchia's topic in Disease treatment/parasite/pest control
Sometimes is the source where you get from and also the type of species. I think percular clown fish are quite easy and tomato clown. And this type of clown which i attach, personally i think is more prone to disease. My 2 cents. This is what i have observe during shipment arrival, most of them always have white spot, fin rot, swimming unbalanced or look very stress. Observation and patience is also the key to success. Hope you find a good one. -

It is important to make sure species can peacefully cohabitate before adding livestock to an aquarium. Use this handy species compatibility checker to determine if the animals on your wish list will play nice together.
