Only reason I'm asking is because I just bought a male and added him into the tank. And my original mandarin got what I believe to be hostile. Started biting the new guy. The new guy is slightly bigger and definitely male with the long fin Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Can someone help me confirm that this is a Female mandarin dragonet? I know the female is not suppose to have a long dorsal fin and this one doesn't. I'm hoping that it's a female and not just a male with the fin broken or a juvenile male without a fin. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I had one ocellaris clown fish in my tank after its mate died. Bought another smaller one to replace it and the two clown fish just bonded like they were lost friends. No problems at all Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

What water conditioners do you guys use when u use tap water? I know anti chlorine is a must. How about anti silicates? And any others? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Oh my gosh. Stuck in the rock?! And now his skeleton's there? Didn't that like totally pollute your tank? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I was doing small water changes at least once a week but my no3 kept high probably because of over stock fish. (About 40cm of fish for 120l). That's too high right? Got abit over zealous and did a big water change to try to get the no3 back down. I stir my sand bed occasionally because I thought it was a shallow sandbed so not much toxic stuff trapped inside (1 inch). Then I'll let the wave maker carry the dirt to the overflow. Also because I'm having a diatom problem. Probably because of the high no3. And and I wanted to get the stuff off my sand bed. Vinegar I used was artificial now that I checked it *bish*. I just dipper a totally new sponge in abit of vinegar and started wiping. Did that about maybe 2 times. My wife came back at night and only glanced at the tank and was like "what did you do?!?!" I only told her i did a water change that afternoon. That was how badly the fish were reacting. They all seem to be in a daze at the corner of the tank. Sigh. Gonna wait a while before doing anything. Let the tank settle down first. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

My Cory wrasse hides in the sand. Could never find out exactly where even when I sift through the sand. But I always see him after a while. But then again I had a garden eel that disappeared a while back and I only just found his body. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Ok don't judge too badly... 1. Wanted to do major water change because NO3 was 50ppm. Anemone and fish weren't looking too good. 2. Siphoned out 1/2 of the water to do the water change. 3. When the water was low, stirred the sand bed (1 inch thick) to try and siphon out the sediments. 4. Tried to clean the salt crystals at the top of my tank with vinegar because it was the most organic thing I could find. And I thought it was safe for reef fish because people are like dosing vinegar and all that. 5. Mixed a fresh batch of salt water and added it into the tank via the refugium. Death list: 1 mandarin (wife's favorite fish) 1 clown fish 1 black damsel 2 yellow tail damsel 1 Cory wrasse 1 doctor shrimp 1 sabae anemone 1 blue sponge 1 turbo snail Think combination of 3, 4 and 5 killed everything Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Did something really stupid... *vent* tank crash! Everything died except for boxing shrimp, 1 (out of 2) clown fish, 1 starfish and nassarius snail. Didn't think my actions would have killed them, but on hindsight I can't believe it did it Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Blue sponge turned 50% yellow in like a few days. Sigh. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
