drfunk Posted January 3, 2004 Share Posted January 3, 2004 what is a mandarin clownfish? Link to comment
LIVEROCKER Posted January 3, 2004 Share Posted January 3, 2004 same question as drfunk. Link to comment
Volcom Posted January 3, 2004 Share Posted January 3, 2004 Poor clown fish. I dont think any kind of salt water fish should be kept in a 3 gallon. You should take it back and get a shrimp instead. Link to comment
ninhsavestheday Posted January 3, 2004 Share Posted January 3, 2004 inter breeding between a clown and mandrian? Link to comment
Acoustic Posted January 3, 2004 Share Posted January 3, 2004 I think he means Green Clown Goby. Link to comment
reefsrule Posted January 3, 2004 Share Posted January 3, 2004 I second the clownfish question Nice candycane Link to comment
BruceRee Posted January 4, 2004 Author Share Posted January 4, 2004 hmm. maybe I'm wrong about the type of clown fish. That's what my LFS (Aquarium Concepts) had labeled the outside of the display. Link to comment
greylor Posted January 4, 2004 Share Posted January 4, 2004 i believe your unidentified coral with the xenia is actually a type of sponge unless i'm lookin at the wrong thing Link to comment
PFB Posted January 7, 2004 Share Posted January 7, 2004 Awesome 3 gal. Eclipse. I had one set up, not sure if you have enough light. Link to comment
drfunk Posted January 7, 2004 Share Posted January 7, 2004 that clown looks giant. in such a small enviroment. i would rethink that fish selection.... maybe a neon goby or a clown goby would be better? Link to comment
supernip Posted January 7, 2004 Share Posted January 7, 2004 aquarium concept wouldnt call an ocellaris clown a mandarin clown, maybe just a percula. I know cause Im local to you Link to comment
Jahkaya Posted January 7, 2004 Share Posted January 7, 2004 True perc is my guess. Neon Gobies and Red Striped Gobies would be fine for a 3 gallon. Just do weekly water changes and pray. Link to comment
movingshadow Posted January 12, 2004 Share Posted January 12, 2004 I agree on the sponge theory for the unidentified coral and the other frag further down in your thread looks like a small capnella(kenia-tree). Watch the sponge as it looks like a non-photosynthetic which will likely decompose if in direct light (algae clogs the syphons and they die). I also forward the motion of getting a smaller fish (or even better, shrimp) for your tank as the swimming space is very limited. I'd also keep an eye on your bubble, it's usually not that great of a sign when the skeleton is showing... HTH Link to comment
