    Clown pair getting picked on

    Hi all, I've got a clown pair and for some reason my majestic and flame angels both have it in for them. They are in a 240 now but the clowns lived with the majestic for years in a previous 300. The majestic was always a bit of a bully but the clowns made their home in a big clump of bryopsis on...

    Hi all! My female clown is breathing heavy and mostly just hanging around at the bottom of my tank. Did a freshwater dip, and I believe some flukes came out. I thought she'd perk back up after that, but an hour later and she's still exhibiting the same behavior. Is there anything else I can do...

    How does clownfish breeding really happen?

    Hey everyone, I’m planning to start a small reef tank (around 15 gallons) and want to eventually try breeding clownfish. I’m wondering — if I just buy 2 clownfish, will they eventually pair up and breed on their own? I’ve heard that one becomes female and the other stays male, but I’m not sure...

    Okay reef team, I’ve got a damsel aggression issue but I’m not willing to give up on my cute little yellow tail just yet! Which totally sucks because I was just celebrating how great the tank has been and then this week happened. She was the first fish in the tank. Probably my first mistake...

    So I started small at first in a 13 gallon. Then I moved up to a 32 gallon and now here I am in a 60 gallon. I’ve already set it up and had it going for a few months. Everything was transferred over (probably to quickly. I’m impatient.). Here are the picture of my tank.
