Have been told through reef central this is fungus and so now they are in a 5 gallon hospital bucket. I am using rid ich which has the "green" in it. The fungus has seemed to stop growing but is still their. Behavior the same, it has been 3 days.
Don't know why I have ammonia, maybe because I am due for a wc, but the 3 gallons I made up I have left ageing, thinking I may need to make a poor amns QT 50% tank water 50% new. I can not get a pick. on "ree cenrtal online" there seems to be a consensus that it is a fungus if cotton like...
Nothing like the ich I have seen before, I have been keeping fish for 20 years and salt for two. I do not think this is ich, no scratching, seriously this thing prtrudes 5mm from the skin, can ich do that?
They are eating like hungry little clowns, cruising the tank relentlesly. They are definately growths, the first one on his head is getting larger, and turning a hint of pink. It looks like two or three little cotton balls bigger than a piece of sand protruding from his head on the white...

I soak my food in algea often when I think their might be added stress to the fish. New additions, ect. I also have had to fight a similar algea. A weekly harvest is all that seems to keep it under control, I suppose it is good for the compost pile?:)
sorry to hear about the jawfish. They are great fish and around here it has been hard to find them lately. I have heard of people using cellofane over their tank, and changing it each week, sounds like a good idea to me?!
On a small piece of LR I had 3 little round shiny blackish brown marbles. They looked out of place. I do not know where they came from I added a couple pieces of LR a couple months ago. I also added some turbo snails, an emerald crab, and some blue leg crabs. It is a 20 gallon hex with two...
Beth, do you say it is not velvet because the fish is surviving? If not is it similar, Ich? The only change I see tonight is an increase in the # of tiny spots. I forgot to mention I have also increased temp to 80. Should I continue water changes?
I a Klarki Clown who looks like he is on his way out. He is in a
20 gal reef. My Jawfish disappeared about a month ago. The
Klarki(Bert) is breathing rapidly, his fins look faded. Tiny white dot
seem to have formed around his head, and eyes look clouded. Since it is a reef
I have just...
