The fish was colored down most the day yesterday. The first pic shows how the skin looks ripped off. The last 2 you can't see these sores as well. The last 2 are the side most fell off Lights don't turn on for a few more minutes. I hope he looks better today.

This morning they were raised bumps coming out of the skin. They are different shapes - medium to large. This fish had ich when I got him a year ago. The bumps were like ich, but huge. They were only on the fish's belly area. Now most white bumps are gone - only a few on one side of fish...

Today I woke up to these big white spots on my Foxface Rabbitfish. The spots were not there yesterday (they are huge I would have noticed at feeding like today). They are on both sides of the fish in the same area. I plan to do a freshwater dip pH and temp matched. If I can catch him that...

I have 8 day old GSM clown larvae that just started swimming into the sides and corners of the tank(5 gal about 2/3 full). Waving my hand in front of them sends them zooming to the middle again, but remove my hand and they are back. I have been feeding rotifers and started adding BBS yesterday...

Tuesday I received an order for 2 yellow kuda seahorses. They are doing great, except that they are not yellow. They arrived pale brown/dark cream. I thought it might take a few days to get adjusted, but they seem to have gotten darker. Now they are dark brown/black. How long before they...

I have Melafix and have used it for freshwater. Label says to use daily for 7 days. Should I treat the tank to prevent the other horse from getting sick or just dip the small guy a few times. Any problems with the gorgonians/sponges? The label says its fine with corals and anemones so I hope...

I got 2 yellow reidi seahorses about 2 weeks ago. One was large and one was small. The small seahorse never got as bright yellow as the larger one. The 2 seahorses are in a 10 gallon bare-bottom tank with AquaClear 300 over-the-back filter. I put in the sponge on bottom, then a Chemi-Pure Elite...

It does look better after it ate. Tentacles puffed back up a little bit. It is currently under compact fluorescents two Coralife 24" bulbs 65W 10000K and two Coralife 24" bulbs 65W Actinic - 12 hours a day. So total 130W daylight and 130W actinic. I don't remember what lighting it came from...

My water is the same as what I posted. Here are pics from the day I put it in.

I have had a Rose Bubble Tip anemone for about 10 days. Last night it completely shrunk up. I have attached two pics from before and after it deflated. The LFS I bought it from is closed today. The LFS I bought it from had a huge one in a 40 or 50 gallon tank that went sexual and the LFS...
