    Fish breathing fast most likely not a disease...

    Clownfish aggression

    Hi all, I recently started my tank 1 month ago, and once cycled I added two juvenile, captive bred ocellaris clownfish from my LFS (one black and white one, one gladiator).

    Clowns fighting after one started hosting nem

    Hi! I've had a pair of frostbite clowns for a few months that came with a significant enough size difference that one would clearly be dominate. The larger one was at least 1.5x the size of the smaller and still is. They're both still juvenile I think. They had slept together and stayed in one...

    Hello, I just bought a pair of ocellaris that are about 3 inches. I have them in a Fluval Evo 13.5 and I’ve been feeding them prime reef flakes until they get full, twice a day. Am I over feeding? I am assuming that the fish is full when it eats a flake and spits it out. The male doesn’t eat...

    White Spots on Maroon Clownfish

    I just noticed these small white spots on my baby maroon clownfish today. They don’t quite look like ich (cryptocaryon irritans) but I do want some outside opinions.
