Re: betta tank decoration ideas
Seconding the live plants. My tank's got a mix of crypts and dwarf hairgrass. The betta loves weaving through the grass, and it keeps the water clean.

Re: Trusted online tropical fish retailers
Yep, QT is a must. No matter where you buy from, you never know what kinda bugs they're carrying.

Re: Trusted online tropical fish retailers
Yeah, The Wet Spot is legit. I got some killer Discus from them last year. Just avoid those sketchy eBay sellers, unless you wanna gamble with your cash.

Re: Using amino acids for better coral coloration
Appreciate the feedback. Nitrates are at 2ppm, so I'll try raising them slowly. Gonna cut the aminos to once a week too.

Using amino acids for better coral coloration
Been dosing amino acids for a few weeks but my Acropora still looks kinda pale. Running a 75-gallon tank with Radion XR15s, salinity at 1.025, temp 78. Anyone got tips to boost color without messing with the balance?

Re: A brown spot on my clown costume
Thanks for breaking it down for me. I'm hoping it's just a scrape or something simple. The brown spot is pretty noticeable, and I'm certain it's not black. I've been racking my brain trying to figure out what it could be. A parasite is the last thing I want to deal with. As for the other clown, I'm ...

A brown spot on my clown costume
I just set up my 12g reef and got my pair of clowns in - after a 2-week qt, I was excited to see them swim around. But, nope, I notice this brown spot on the female. I mean, at least they're the first ones in, but what is this thing?! I've been searching online, but can't find anything, so I'm ...

Re: Frogspawn coral issue
Fortunately, the frogspawn never actually left the water, it was a pretty well-insulated setup - two bags of hot water at the bottom of the cooler, a layer of blankets to prevent overheating, and then the bag with the frogspawn. The issue was the hot water bags bursting and causing the frogspawn's ...

Frogspawn coral issue
I recently acquired some frogspawn heads from a fellow member, and I'm worried I might've botched the transport. I wrapped them in a cooler with warm water bags and a thick blanket for insulation. But during the trip, the water bags burst, drenching the blanket, and the frogspawn bag got way too ...
