My saddled toby, Aphrodite has pretty poor aim. Both my DPs are pretty adept.

Re: Toby and Fiddler Crab buddy
RIP Fiddler crab buddy. He interested her about as long as the other guy before being eaten... but she played with this one in MUCH weirder ways.

Toby and Fiddler Crab buddy
My full-grown C. Vallentini has a spotty track record about eating crustaceans. She always attacks Ghost Shrimp, but the one experience I had with harder-shelled prey ( a male Fiddler Crab ) was pretty inconclusive. She killed him all right, but it was a 7 day process, nipping off appendages and eye...

Re: drift wood....???
+ 1 RTR! It's always important to note that it's NOT like "zapping" rock with copper. The things baking and boiling do for wood in a FW or low-brackish setup have no effect on the decay rate. But it's nice to know your not bringing pathogens into your system.

From Diatoms to Hair
Well folks... My 29g Marine tank finished off it's post-cycle shebang with a nice Diatom bloom, then when that died off ( whew thank gawd ) and I started to relax, I noticed hair algae on SOME of the LR. It only seems to be cultivating on certain surfaces. At on point I took a large-ish chunk out an...

Re: drift wood....???
Soft wood decays at a faster rate and releases more tannins. This will lower your ph a lot so just be sure to use something hard unless your going for acidic water

Re: GSP Swimming up and down side of the tank
Very good! When you go full marine, as your puffer matures, I advise the use of a refugium/sump, it definitley helps buffer against their slovenly eating habits. Best of luck!

Re: GSP Swimming up and down side of the tank
I am going start to make it SW in the next couple days i just got him a couple days ago. Your going to need to make it brackish first. Also the corys will have to be going, they don't like salt in ANY measurable amounts. Make sure to get a hydrometer ( or better, a refractometer that you know is ca...
