I have a filamented flasher wrasse. So I assume it's safe to add another male filamented flasher wrasse and not have to worry about aggressive behavior toward each other? Thanks.

Currently have a 30 gallon tank with a paired b&w clownfish hosting an anemone, coral beauty, and a flasher wrasse. Is it safe to add another flasher wrasse to the tank? If yes, does it have to be an opposite sex flasher to the one I currently have? If yes, how do you sex a flasher wrasse...

Water parameters look okay. I'll move the candy cane lower and hopefully, it'll recover its color. Thanks.

My neon candy cane coral is slowly receding its neon colors from the base up. What is causing this? What can be done to stop this and promote growth? Do I need to feed it? I have a 30 gallon cube with 250watts mh. The candy cane is placed near the top of the tank, about 10 inches from the...

My LFS advised that I can keep a 2 inch purple tang in my 30 gallon tank. And because the fish is so small to start with, the size of my tank would limit the growth, thus not require a larger environment moving forward. Also, the LFS said the odds of the fish surviving the 1st week is 50/50...

So the cleaner shrimp is a sure goner? What's the length of a fire shrimp to be considered big? Mine is about 2-2.5 inches long. Although I rarely see it. Thanks.

Will a cleaner and fire shrimp be safe from a relatively large mystery wrasse (3-3.5 inches) ? Thanks.

The tank is a 30 gallon cube running for over a year and a half. The fire fish was the first fish introduced to to the tank and was the dominant fish. The jaw fish and hawk fish was introduced a few months ago. I haven't notice any fighting/bullying. From my observation, the jaw fish remains...

My firefish is not eating. It simply watches the mysis float on by and has shrunk in size. It also only swims on the sand bed, doesn't swim above and mostly hides in the rocks. I noticed it's dorsal fin was damaged, but can't figure out by what. I don't notice any fish picking on it. Tank...
