man if i let my mum run my 60gal tank i would have a crosshatch trigger, a few lions and a school of anthias. oh and it would be full of gorgonians and dendros supported by 65W of light. mothers, mothers though they are, should not be allowed to run tanks (unless they are the reefers themselves of course). just tell her that if you get it, the thing will end up bullying the other fish to death (not unlikely). then ask if she really supports that kind of behaviour. lol, guilt trip her into not wanting it.

shrimp hold on to the eggs until they hatch. fish eat the larvae and love it

have you cycled the tank yet?

Mik_101 07-01-2007 08:42 PM

HAHA ok il teller that!:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:


No i havent cycled my tank(ok 3 days) but i do have live rock that is about 5 years old and nicly incrusted with coralline algea.

never add any livestock (fish, cuc, corals) to a tank that is or hasnt cycled. only after.

They don't release them overtly, so I never watched the fish go crazy for them. The corals, mostly LPS, near where the shrimp made their home did eat the eggs. I'm sure the fish had some, but I mostly saw my LPS, frogspawn, and my hammer, enjoying the eggs.

sweet fish. but go return them. I dont mean to flame you, but you really should have known that NO fish or other livestock can go into a cycling tank. start this hobby right and return the fish before they die.

Mik,

Have you tested your your parameters lately? What are they reading at? I'm also going to have to second JustinL's comment about returning them. If your tank is still cycling then they shouldn't be in there.
