ugly aquarium looks dead

[JustaWonderfullGuy]

I have a question does a cleaner shrimp eat a parasite on the body of a fish?

[norxington]

I see there is a butterfly fish in there and I have read that generally they are not reef compatible

is this true?

[danpepall]

@norxington depends on the butterfly fish, I keep copperbands and they are reef safe in general, yellows are touch and go as it sounds sad but all fish develop their own personality in the tank

Hello, I have a Coralife Compact Fluorescent True Actinic Blue Light Straight Pin Base Bulb and I don't know how to take it off because I'm buying a Regular Fluorescent Bulb to replace it. It's a CF 65W True Actinic. Sorry, I don't know that much about changing these kinds of bulbs that are connected by wires instead. Please Help ASAP! Thank You.

[MrFishjim]

@Asilex100 It must be a straight pin bulb configuration for it to work. Carefully remove the bulb from the clips. Be careful removing the bulb from the fixture, because the plastic recepticle gets brittle from the heat. I have broken a few myself. I use a screwdriver to pry the plastic ends of the bulb off the 'tombstone'(the part that the pins fit into). Coralife does have replacements though; I have had to get them.

First off i'm not a monkey. Second Good video.

[seanyroche]

This guy know his stuff, great videos! thanks

[abard21]

Why not spice it up with some soft corals. The fish observed won't mess with them.

[TylerThe14]

omg NICE TANK where did u get some of that live rock at the top by your head

[Ryan4321]

thats some boring fish for this big of a tank

but the tank does look awesome

[TheCatz69]

tell him to get corals!!!

[engrchun]

is 1/2inch ordinary glass enough for that 400gal tank?

or hows tempered glass for that size??

[Arteolike]

@engrchun NO 1/2" is nothing for a 400 G tank you want to use no less then 1" glass. If its above 18" use 3/4" and every inch taller 1/8" thicker glass. so if you have a 30" tall aquarium you'll need like 2" thick glass. A Tank this size is more then likely acrylic, acrylic is stronger then glass and around 1 1/2" thick

[rudedude101]

[hawkwind999]

[TheWhitevoices]

That tank is cool as fuck

[pro194757]

dun use high dosage of copper for tangs..their stomuch bacteria might die n they cant digest plant matter

[CyborgNinja7]

Is it worth quarantining a fish each time they are purchased for a period of time?

[creativebeing1]

@CyborgNinja7 it definently is depending on how old and how much you have spent on your main tank. you may have spend $5000-$6000 on a tank, then throw a clown fish and it will infect everything, and you would rather not throw medications in the water, so depends how much you value your current tank. although it is a law in Australia that all fish in the actual aquarium shop are quarantined before you buy them, i dont know where you are so, not sure about the laws.

[JohnTap123]

whats a good salt water fish for 20 gallons?

[Zachhay11]

clow fish. percula

[JohnTap123]

thanks

[whatthehelluwaitin4]

yeh i would say something fairly inexpensive such as clown fish , damsels or anything which is a community fish. Community fish are better within smaller aquariums as they are less likely to get stressed out over tank mates, it is also wise for a smaller aquarium to obviously keep smaller fish due to stress or even cleaning crew like small hermits.

[JohnTap123]

thanks

[Zachhay11]

damsels are good. i suggest blue damsels or yellow tails. keep no more then 2 or 3 togethier in a small tank though, they can be agreesive, also be selctive. some damsels such as the domino are very agressive. but damsels and clowns go well together they are actually related. thats why they look similar in shape and are both very hardy and good in community tanks:)

[JohnTap123]

o thanks i might get a 20 and a 30 gallon one for my cons and the other for salt water thanks

[jasonkirchman]

great white :)

[cpiMan666]

@JohnTap123 30 gallons is kinda minium

[jonathancantalk]

@JohnTap123 Clown Fishes are good :)

[monstercolenutt]

hi, if it is live sand you dow dot what to give it a quick stir.

[jamil316]

WoW Nice i wanna buy somthing like that

[havoc2092]

hi there. i have a 85 gallon FOWLR. the sand i used when i first set it up last june was given to me by a neighbor and now he has moved out. i dont have a clue if the sand is live sand or just normal sand since i was thinking of giving it a quick stir. is there a way that i can check if the sand is actually live sand. regards
