Re: Keeping a breeding pair of clownfish in a 15-gallon tank


I think you'll figure out if they're comfortable enough to spawn, but really, a 50 gallon or larger would be ideal, especially with a reef or other fish. They lay their eggs on live rock, so a reef is necessary. I'm setting up my first saltwater fish and reef tank, a 32 gallon nano tank with a ...

Re: Keeping a breeding pair of clownfish in a 15-gallon tank



I recently made the switch from an 8 gallon to a 15 gallon, and I'm really hoping to get my clownfish to breed. I've been thinking about trying a male and female pair in a live rock 15 gallon - do you think that's doable?


Honestly, I think this is a pretty ambitious plan. Clownfish aren't ...

Re: Are Zoanthids safe with SPS?

My Zoas and SPS have been fine together, but I dose amino acids to keep everyone happy. Tank's a 40-gallon breeder with Kessil A360X, 0.03 nitrate, and daily feeding. Maybe it's the extra nutrients that help?

Re: Can endlers thrive in low ph environments?

To better understand your water parameters, what's your GH reading? It's often considered more crucial than pH in determining water hardness. I came across an interesting article on Seriously Fish, which recommends a pH of 7-8.5 and a GH of 15-35 for Endler's Livebearers, suggesting they thrive in ...

Can endlers thrive in low ph environments?

I've got a 23 gallon tank that's pretty heavily planted, it's home to 4 neon tetras, 5 corydoras, 3 otocinclus and 2 honey gouramis. The pH is 6, I'm thinking of adding some endlers, wondering if that'd work out.

I've got a few questions to get some advice from you all. Can I put 2 clownfish, 1 ...

Re: Is my browning plant dying?


I've got a plant in my tank that's in a silent cycle right now and I'm not sure what it is (anyone know the species?). The lower leaves are browning - should I cut them off? I've also got some hornwort with wilting lower leaves, is this a light issue because the upper leaves are blocking them ...

Re: Is my browning plant dying?

Your water parameters look good. Do you use any fertilizers in your aquarium? What's your aquarium lighting schedule like, how many hours a day do you keep the lights on?
