Nano Clown Fish in Calgary

Hi

Have a Nano 7g tank and looking to get a small nano clown fish. The tank is over a month and it's been cycled. Have Zoa and Acan in tank only.

If anyone wants to donate to newbie

or sell it please let me know.

Thank you.

no such thing as a nano clown. I'm sure you can go buy a baby one for $20.

I was trying to say small size fish or as you have mentioned baby fish. Called Big Al's and Red Coral and they have bigger size that might be too small tank for them. any ideas where I can find?

Golds might don't think so at the moment though, or Ocean Creations (Ocean City)

If all else fails there is these guys as well. Not that I would highly recommend them.

Wai's, Pieces, Riverfront

I've read this somewhere but I've never gotten a straight answer as to why you should do this.

Yeap I know I should rinse it just to remove everything which is not food. Thx for your help.

There is a bunch of left over crap in the water. It just adds to the pollution of your tank. Not sure if its just the water they use to package or what it is.

Try thawing food and dumping it in your tank, you can see the "cloud" before it mixes in. Then do the same thing after you rinse it. You will see why you should rinse it.

Is the crap not beneficial for suspended particle filter feeders?
