    Building a tank around lionfish. Ideas? Suggestions?

    Hey, R2R. Back again trying to learn what I can. Ok, I’m convinced I’m getting 125g tank and I want a lionfish to be the “star” of the tank (at least for me) so I’m building around it. This is going to be a living room tank so it needs to have kind of a “wow” factor to it. My partner thinks the...

    Snowflake eel tumor?

    Hello, I’ve got an 18” snowflake eel, who seems quite healthy, except for something that looks kinda like a tumor on the roof of her mouth. Seems to be growing. Still eating and doesn’t seem to have changed behavior. Anyone know if there’s anything I can or should do?

    Lionfish/ Eel Not Eating

    About 2 weeks ago I bought a snowflake eel from an LFS that had it eating krill just dropped into it's small tank (not from tongs or skewer). I introduced him into the tank and he has not eaten yet. At first I attributed it to getting accustomed to the tank and I did change my rock work a few...

    Golden Dwarf Moray stopped eating

    I've had my Maui for about 6-7 months now. When I first got him he was healthy and started eating right away, something you eel keepers will know doesn't happen often with new eels. He stayed in a 10g tank with live rock and macros for a month or two while my display cycled. Once the display was...

    Snowflake eel question

    So, I just got a snowflake eel today from my lfs. He’s had him for 3 weeks and doing well. I fed him tonight. I was wondering how much should you feed him. Since he’s only like a foot if that maybe give or take some. I cut up a small raw shrimp and gave him about a third of that shrimp. Just...

    Bleaching Coraline and water parameters

    Hey all, My coraline algae that was once purpleish, is now bleaching white or a faded grey. I'm assuming it's my lighting because parts that have less light are still purple. Behind my anemone when it shrinks up, the coraline is still purple behind it. It started with white spots taking...

    Krill for Eel.

    So I've been feeding my smaller eels Rod's foods for the past few years, however it is expensive as hell. I go through one pack of predator blend in just two weeks just for my eels alone (I have a lot more predator fish). It's not really worth it anymore. My Snowflakes (2 eels) and Golden Dwarfs...
