    Too hot?

    Well, we've been doing good up until today. Two years, some errors and learning lessons, we've had a pretty good tank. We had an emperor angel for 8 months and she up and died the other day without any signs of problems. We've heard from some people that angels will do that from time to time...

    LR or No LR??

    My finace and I were looking in to getting some LR for our 55g FO tank. We currently have a powerhead, 2 emperor 400 bio wheel filters and we use tap water. We've heard the cost of LR is unecessary when you have FO setup because all it adds is a grazing ground for your fish, yet others have...

I was wondering if there was some kind of liquid nutrition that I could get to supplement them until they are feeling better and want to eat. Right now the only thing I have been doing is adding Zoe to the tank water and some to the...

    Hypo Question

    My whiteface tang has ick and we decided to hypo the tank. I am using a refractometer that I purchased from this website to measure the salinity. My fiance calibrated it and I also checked it out, it looked good to go. My whiteface tang has had a very mild case of ikc b/c I was originally...

    Black Ick?

    What is black ick and can hypo solve that problem and well as white ick? I think my tang might have both. I looked at the pictures Beth provided and the spots on my tang look a little bigger than salt specks. Curious....

    I dropped the salinity in my tank and right now it's 1.010. It has been at this level since last Thursday. My tank was originally treated with copper and I stopped that treatment(which was keeping the ick controlled off my tang) and decided to go with hypo instead. My questions is am I supposed...

    2 Tangs... Help Please :)

    I have a whiteface tang in my tank and a diamond goby, that's it. My good friend is moving and she didn't want to get rid of her blue hippo that she was really attached to.

    Copper in sand??

    I have treated my main tank (as I sure most of you know from all my posts in the past month) with SeaCure. I have now come to realize that my dead coral is absorbing this dissapating copper.
