Starting over, questions abound!

You should just run two skimmers!

Help! Not sure what is in my bird wrasse's mouth, or what happened to his nose, but think he's having trouble getting it down. Should i try to catch and pull it out for him?

He must've managed to swallow whatever he had lodged in his throat. Still curious why his nose is pale. Almost looks like skin is missing. Only tankmates are bullethead goby, zebra eel, and a couple bubbletip nems.

New addition today! Only been in tank about 5 hours, already swims to glass to check out anyone looking in!

Anyone know what might be causing my T5 light to do this? The black squares are just the end caps unscrewed. Plug it in, few inches light up for a few seconds, then shuts itself off.

That's exactly what mine is! Bought it used, so have no idea what may have happened before i got it. Was told it worked, and have no reason to doubt the seller.

Was cleaning up my computer desktop and found this pic I had forgotten about. How do you know your toadfish has eaten your antennata lionfish? Look at its mouth! Needless to say, neither survived.
