Too many fish! Salt water does not hold as much oxygen as fresh water. Use a lot of aeration, and stick to the clowns only. At least until you can get a bigger tank. Coral has very high and specialized lighting and nutritional needs. If you are new to the hobby, and all of us once were, stick to a fish only tank until you have a lot more experience, and have learned more by reading and talking to other hobbyists. If you can, join a local club. But read, read, read. Don't forget your weekly water changes!

Not a fish I would recommend, particularly for beginners for one major reason... they terrorize the aquarium. Many new to the hobby would be put off due to it's agressive nature towards other fish. They can go so far as taking chunks out of other fish that are introduced after it.

I am in desperate need to find out what to do to help my shark! I have had my bamboo shark for about a year now and he has always been active and a very good eater. About two weeks ago I noticed a rash on his stomach that spread to the rest of his body so I treated it with an antibacterial. That did not help much so I changed out 20 gallons of water and the rash has gotten smaller. However, my shark has not gone a week without eating. If I place any food in front of him he swims away or backs away from it. He has also been showing some odd behavior. He will sit in one spot and it will look like he is swimming in place and then when he does try to swim to the top of the water like he usually he does, he does not appear to be able to swim like he has been which I'm assuming is from going so long without eating now. He has also started breathing harder and faster in the past week as well.

A 55 gallon is way to small for a dog face puffer.

I love my tang. She is beautiful in my tank. I have two clowns, a dwarf flame back angel, a six line wrasse, a goby, two cardinals, and two chromes, and my tang . Everyone gets along just fine there is no fighting or anything its amazing.

Just got a BlueAngelfish over the holidays. And I've got to say it's one beautiful fish. The prettiest so far that I've owned

in the course of 2 weeks, the sergeant major has devoured 8 super crocea clams and stressed out 4 more. this species is hard to catch and loves to dine on unsuspecting anemones, snails, clams, and small fish. i was sold this fish by mistake.
