I set it up 4 weeks ago using water from the DT originally. I also added a sponge that has been in my DT for several months. All water changes i have used new water. I am using Seachem's copper test kit.
Yes, there are 4 fish and an eel in the hospital tank. I removed all from the DT. This...
I have been treating with Cupramine for Marine Ich for 4 weeks. I treated for a longer period at a lower concentration because I have an eel. My level has maintained between 0.3-0.5 for the duration of the treatment. 3 days ago, I noticed my small blue tang flashing. It appears to have small...
Thanks yall :) I have gotten it a bit better by doing lots of 5 gal water changes every other day. Also I covered the tank and turned off all lights for 3 days. Ditched the bioballs and added chaeto and chemi pure in the back.
Still high nitrates, but coming down and corals are making a...
BioCube 29g set up in June. Was running fantastic until about a month ago when we started having algae issues. First it was red slime, now its green hair. I did a massive overhaul yesterday and cleaned/scrubbed all three back chambers and removed the bioballs from chamber 2. The back wall of...
Snake-thanks so much for the input. Got a package on a tank/sump/pump/stand that came with a light... but I don't think I like the light. It's a Fluval Sea Marine and Reef 25000k 46W... Long story short it would have cost us more to get the package without the light (?!).
From what I can tell...
Pretty pleased with our latest purchase of an LTA :) my female was very pleased with the new addition-she's been begging for an anemone...aka wallowing on my hammer coral
Looks healthy to me-ate at the LFS... It's brown so I'm confident not a dyed anemone, but I wanted y'all's input.
Also...
My thoughts exactly Mr. Llimpid. Thanks for the advice everyone-it's really appreciated! I have both in QT now - the wrasse doesn't seem happy but hopefully he will settle in :) It's going to be a LONG 6 weeks lol
Quick thought-since my Melanurus enjoys his sand sleeping, will he be ok in a bare bottomed QT? I've read about putting a tupperware in with sand, but I dont have extra sand laying around. If I were to get sand from LFS (for the wrasse) should I get live sand or...? I'd obviously have to treat...
The angel wasn't really covered. I could only see very few dots on the tail and fins. The clowns on the other hand looked like they had a whitish film. I do not but can get my hands on one tonight.
Also, looking at pictures the clowns appeared to have brookynella-the angel I'm not sure about. It had small white dots that were almost impossible to see. Can brookynella and ich appear simultaneously? All fish ate up until death. The angel I found halfway eaten in the anemone. If brookynella...
