    THANKS!
  2. Does anyone keep Jawfish?

    Hi, Mitch. Thank you for responding so fast. Your jawfish looks really happy. I am so pleased to know that I could keep at least 1 jawfish in the 10 gallon. I was thinking about having a midas blenny and a couple of snails and shrimps in the same tank with the jawfish. I was thinking about...
  3. Does anyone keep Jawfish?

    I have a 10 gallon tank and a 20 gallon tank, so far without inhabitants. I would like to keep a Jawfish and am wondering if either of my tank sizes would be suitable. Also I would appreciate knowing what tankmates and general conditions they like and any interesting experiences you have had...

  9. REALLY High Alkalinity

    I've been keeping a 100 gallon reef tank since March 2002 and I have had very high alkalinity almost from the start. The last test I performed was with the LaMotte test kit and the result was 520 ppm. I divided that by 17.85 to get the dKH — 29! This doesn't surprize me since I have getting...
