Sponges

I'm getting real interested in expanding into this area, expecially since I have a FOWLR tank. I already have one lavender circular silver dollar sponge that came with some live rock which my yellow and naso tang, foxface, and singapore angel do not nibble on in the least. Does anyone have much expe...

EEL/ FISH GRUB

Gerwin mentioned I should pass on this recipe. My eel loves it and surprising to me eats it very readily while frozen (doesn't seem to mind the brain freeze.)

Feeding options

Any advice on when to branch out from simply using dried flakes ? I got a beauitiful singapore (vermiculated) angel a few days ago and it is "grazing" but what about actively feeding it ? including algae from the asian stores or otherwise? I have a mandarin fish. Is my live rock alone goin...

What about placing your new fish in an isolation container with-in the larger tank until the old fish get used to their presence......... I saw this referenced some where else on line and it made some sense. While on the subject of dividing up your tank........ does anyone ever partition their tank ...
