Hi phislet, Have you figured it out yet? The square piece (devider) goes in the bottom of the center tube . neither the center tube or the plastic square (devider)is glued into the skimmer so it can fall out if jarred or during cleaning . (1) take the cup off the top .(2)then grab hold and...

tanzy, I did the same thing one night .And noticed some crabs .I caught 7 over a 2 week span . there might be a couple left but I don't see them anymore .On one of my nightly visits with a flash light I also noticed hundreds of baby maroon clowns .They've been laying eggs for over a year and...

Pathos, Before putting the bottle in your tank, make a small feeder and feed them for a couple weeks or so. you can use a pouch made of window material screening or a netting material . Put a piece of shrimp or fish in the pouch along with a couple stainles steel nuts,screws or rock to sink...

my guess would be the move.It stired everything up .

I'd place it in a spot with some movement,not a real lot of movement and better than normal lighting .Your right kjb they are just xenia and they should be fine anywhere in your tank .they grow like weeds in mine .I don't feed them anything ,my filtration isn't the best and I only use VHOs for...

schism, you are so right .I started out with one small bta,it split into three .two of them are the size of basketballs and one I'd say is the size of a soccer ball . My tank is 125 gl.six feet long and devoted primaraly to these three anems and a pair of maroon clowns .They take up 2 and 1/2...
