Editorial: May 2003
In this editorial I want to talk to our readers about where we have been, where we are, and finally ask for suggestions about where we are going.
Feature Article: Toxicity Of Trace Elements: Truth Or Myth?
In this article I will explain that it is not always necessary that a heavy metal is toxic since this depends strongly on the form (=speciation) in which it is present. That is it is not always bio-available
Feature Aquarium: The Aquarium Of Julien Theodule, The Big Faille 1
Julien shares his tank with us this month. Translated From The French By Nicolas Will
The Breeder's Net: Propagating The Neon Goby, Gobiosoma Oceanops
The neon goby, Gobiosoma oceanops, is one of the largest species of the genus and probably the most common goby in marine aquariums. It is a cleaner species and even though of small size (2 to 3 inches as adults) the neon goby does well in a community tank.
Chemistry And The Aquarium: Metals In Limewater
This article expands on the basis of the claim that limewater may be able to deliver lower quantities of some metals compared to calcium reactors and it also provides some experimental data that demonstrates this claim.
Aquarium Fish: The Rhinopias Spp. – The Ultimate Scorpionfishes
Of course, these piscine jewels command big bucks! But if you are really in to the odd and want to display a fish in your aquarium that will break the ice at your neighborhood parties, then why not attempt to acquire a Rhinopias!
Photo Gallery Spotlight: The Longnose Hawkfish
This pair of longnose hawkfish (Oxycirrhitus typus) rarely separate for any length of time.
Aquarium Invertebrates: Green-Lipped Mussels
I was particularly motivated to write this article after overhearing a local petshop employee telling a potential customer that they were a hardy addition to any reef aquarium.
Short Take: Fireworm Husbandry?!
I think the overall attitude about them would change if people kept them long enough (in a separate tank of course) to get to know them. I will give a brief background on them and describe their husbandry requirements for people who would actually like to keep them around.
