A few of my animals

Got a big batch of frogspawn going on, around 10-15 heads on it.

Here's my blue spot naso tang - ignore the microbubbles, by the way.

And another shot of the blue spot naso, with a chromis swimming in the background.

No microbubbles in this one, though.

Keeping a beaugregory damselfish in a 75 gallon tank

I'm having a tough time figuring out the difference between beaugregory damselfish and cocoa damselfish, especially when they're young. Are they two distinct species or is the beaugregory just a dominant male cocoa damselfish?

I've been trying to find some info on beaugregory damselfish, but it's ...

Re: is keeping sharks as pets allowed?

I've got another question - what saltwater fish lays eggs that are like the size of small marbles and have a greenish color with grey in them? I recently got some live rock from my LPS and they always seem to throw in weird stuff. Last time it was some sort of conch flake, now it's this purple ...

Re: is keeping sharks as pets allowed?

Thanks for the info, guys. I had no idea about the whole hanging them upside down thing. I'm still thinking of getting a small shark someday. Just wondering, would a small shark eat an adult horseshoe crab or hardhead catfish?

Re: raising chromis successfully

You could sell that first tank-raised chromis for a pretty penny, I'm sure someone would jump at the chance. It'd be a milestone, like the first man on the moon, but in our little fish-keeping world. If chromis ever become rare, people could follow in his footsteps and learn from his experience.

Re: raising chromis successfully

That's a lot to take in. I'll have to ask my friend if he's got any plankton cultures going on.

Re: raising chromis successfully

Thanks for the info, I really appreciate it.

So my friend has Kent Marine phyto and zoo plankton bottles - would these be small enough for the chromis larvae to eat if he managed to hatch some?
