Hi How the hell are you ment to get the plate off to swap sides without chewing it up?

I currently have a 20g standard tank with 2 clownfish, a firefish, and a Tailspot blenny. I was wondering if it’s possible to add a 5th fish and if so is it possible to add a pearl jaw fish. Have found them to be quite cute lately. Is it possible to get one?

I've just got a quick question for some people. I have a new tank. No animals in it yet (that I know of), just bacteria. My cycle should be finished by the end of the week (If it doesn't stall again.) What are people's advice for the first livestock I should add? My LFS recommended I start...

Hello everyone. I'm here feeling daunted and excited in equal measure having had our 85L tank set up and cycling for a good few weeks. I would love it if anyone could tell me whether we're cycled. I have a 10 and a 6 year old here busting a gut to shop for first fishies tomorrow! Are we...

Hi everyone! I was talking to another customer at my LFS and he mentioned that he added Bristle worms to his tank a few months ago and is loving the work that they do for him. It was a pretty short conversation, and I'm on the fence after doing my own research at home. From what I've found, they...

I saw him open up a bit last night and this morning, but I would just wish to make sure that this is good. I had my water tested, it should be good. This is more of a means to make sure I’m doing this correctly. Thank you for any input.

I'm starting to plan out my long-term coral layout and need some advice or thoughts. This is my first tank so I'm new to planning it all out. I have fallen in love with Hammers, Torches, and Frogspawn and definitely want to do a Zoa Garden. Below are pictures of my scape and what I'm thinking...

So this guy is getting out of the hobby and is asking 60 for these theee Arizona sunbursts! Just making sure that I’m not crazy and this is an insane deal.

Hi. So yesterday i bought my first saltwater tank from kijiji. I have 20 freshwater tanks and have always wanted to do the jump. It came with 2x clownfish, a blue damsel, 3 hermitcrabs and sand. I just put 18 lb of live rock and im running a tidal 55 and a aquaclear (small) for carbon. Once is...

Who all out there is keeping gonadactylus viridis and what are their temperaments and activity levels?

I’m new to the salt water community and need help identifying if this algae is a beneficial algae or a bad algae in my tank. It looks like little puff balls.

I all, I ordered an empourer angelfish and I was curious if anyone had tips for destressing it and keeping him successfully. I have had angels in the past but they have all been dawrfs.

Hello guys we have just found this in our saltwater tank. We have just took it out, but if its safe we want to put it back in.
