............ i have no sand bed on one whole side of the tank heres the most recent. I just moved and the new sand bed looked great!! for 2-3 days..... lol

several times a week i have to take the turkey baster and uncover a few LPS that are on the sandbed where mine decides to sweep up around her house and covers them up

she broke off a piece on montipora the other day that was to close to the sand bed. I dont mind tho.

great discussion. i have a 3" white stripped maroon clown in my 100 gallon tank with 1 rbta and 2 gbtas. i would like to pair it up and was wondering what any of you might recommend. a person at the lfs advised me to remove my current clown, put a smaller maroon clown in, and then re-introduce my 3".

my maroon clown has never showed any aggression to me when i feed, clean the tank, or when aquascaping. it is peaceful to all tank mates and corals. also, it does not move rockwork or kick up sand.

thanks for any advice!

putting the female in a container in the tank letting the male have free roam can help too. so will the opposite. there is a whole sticky thread on pairing maroons. just be ready to save him!
