Can anyone tell me what is the on my fish. I've had the fish for well over two years and it has been there for the majority of that time. In the picture, it is the white-looking spot above the fish's eye. This is a chocolate tang...

I agree with what you stated. However, it appears that since I've used Prazipro, turned the UV sterilizer back on and the Lion fish has died, everything is on the mend! All I know is that this is the second lion fish that I've placed in a healthy fish tank, in which ich has occurred. I won't...

I have a 125 gallon fish tank that has been setup and running for about five years. I have generally had a healthy tank up until about 3 weeks ago. I added a Lion fish to the tank about two months ago and a few fish in my tank developed ich. I've have had a UV sterilizer running since I...

Just thought that the "New Life Spectrum" pellets were way different. They advertise that everything that the fish need is in there. I thought I was giving them all that was needed. Guess I will now have to come up with a different plan. Candy??? Wow...Thanks!

Will definitely pick up that tomorrow. Thanks to the both of you for your advice!

Thanks! I just started feeding it dried algae sheets. I'll try mysis shrimp as well.

I have an adult emperor angel that I have had for over a year. I was looking at some pictures I took a while back when I first got it and noticed that this fish has gradually lost it's colors. The black around it's face has faded and it's just not as vivid as it used to be. I only feed my...

I have many fish: Sohal Tang, 2 Fox face fish, Powder blue tang, Regal Tang, Emperor Angelfish, [hr] Triggerfish and a few more. This is my problem. My Chocolate Tang or Mimic Tang and Powder Brown Tang both have a small white lession on their face. It has been there for some time (more...

Why would you want to make your own food when you can buy "New Life Spectrum Fish foods?" Anything that could benefit your fish is in there. I have been keeping saltwater fish for more than twelve years and have not found anything better. I've tried frozen/flake/live foods and this food is...

I've got a Sohal, Emperor Angel, Niger Triggerfish, 2 Fox Face, Blonde Naso (very large), Hippo Tang, Powder Blue Tang, Powder Brown Tang and a Chocolate Tang. They all get along fine without any problems.

I have a regal tang in my 125G tank. I've had it for maybe four months and he was also small when I bought it. However, he has grown so fast! He is practically the size of the majority of my other fish now. I introduced him to an established tank with a large blonde naso tang, emperor...

Here's what you should do: buy a product called "Prazipro." You can usually find it through saltwater fish dealers, not chain stores. It works well without negatively harming fish, live rock, etc. You just have to turn off the skimmer and sterilizer for a week or so. I find it to be the...

I used black window tint on my 125 gal. and it worked just fine.

I don't know what happen to your fish, but I hate hearing that. I have had a couple dog-faced puffers and they have all done well during my keeping. I do know that they need meaty foods. In fact, that is all i fed mine. I would venture to say that when you bought him, he probably was already...

I was always told that once you use copper, u can never remove it from the tank without extreme measures. Be cautious in using it, you won't be able to add anything other than fish, crabs, and maybe snails. I would use a product I have found much success with called "Prazipro." I have used it...

I have T5 lighting too and will try adding calcium a and b, then see what happens. Originally Posted by tru conch it should grow. but to have it spread depends on a few things. first you need to have a rock w/coraline already on it. if you do, you can put it near a powerhead or a return with...
