Powerheads! As much surface agitation as you can possibly get.
You will suffocate them without serious movement.

Did I read that your QT was only 20 gallons??
11 fish, 3 of them large, will not do well over the next 6 weeks.
Is there any way the LFS will hold some for you and you can QT them seperately?

That may be in your best interest. in the next 2 weeks your gonna have the ammonia spike from hell!
That's very dangerous.
I would seriously consider cutting down as much as you can, treating, and then getting new fish and treating individually or in couples when this round is over.
Your risking loosing all of them.

The twin didn't make it. Everyone else is fine. Swimming around and stuff. They all ate well (except for the twin spot) at 8pm when I fed them.
I also did a quick test on some of the levels:
Salinity 1.019
Ammonia 0
Nitrites 0
I added amquel this afternoon but this morning the nitrite and ammonia were both at .25. It's good to see they're back at 0.

What are you, Spider, Beth and I doing posting at 10pm on a Saturday night?
We need to 'get a life'
I'm one of the computer geeks too, run both Mac and PC.
Anyways, I do need to get a life, that is for sure
Hubby is on the road (Sonoma, CA to be specific), my twins are bed and I'm too tired to program. I actually did go to bed before 11pm ET last night so I didn't get to join you guys for the party.

Sorry you lost the Goby. Beautiful specimen! I have a similar one paired up with a pistol shrimp. I have a Tomiyama Shrimp Goby (also known as Monster Goby)

Well we're on day 3 and no deaths since the twin spot goby. Salinity is down to 1.016 at a constant 83 degrees.
Good. You will have to bring the SG down to 1.009 for the treatment to begin to work. Be sure to watch your PH.

Another interesting thing about my tanks is that all of my corals are doing REALLY well... I'm amazed at how fast and huge my plate coral has grown, in addition to some of my frogspawn... not to mention my rose bubble tip anemone is awesome looking. It looks like it's about to split... do anemones do that?

salinity is between 1.012 and 1.013 - we're getting close... and everyone's doing fine. BTW my tank has been getting a little cloudy. Param's are all good, but I think it's the GVH garlic/vitamin stuff I've been using. I let it soak in with the food, and when I feed them, it slightly clouds the tank. Because I don't have a skimmer (just a HOB filter), I think the garlic and vitamins just hang out in the tank which probably isn't a bad thing, is it?

How much are you adding at once? I use vitamins for every meal and have never had it cloud the water. Also, if your SG is still not down to 1.009 then you cannot start counting the three weeks quite yet (your thread in D&T).
