    did the lfs do me wrong?

    I use the current-usa satellite... it is very similiar to the lights you have. Im not sure but i think the only difference is that the satellite comes with a fan and lunar lights. the fan gets rid of excess heat. The lights however give you about 4-5 watts per gallon which will allow you to...

    clown gone

    sometimes fish die for no reason. Do you have a clean up crew? If the fish did die then it is possible that he could have become food for your invertebrates.

    Arrow Crab.... although their temperment is very bold, if anything spooks them they will poke it with its legs. My arrow has calmed down now and lets my cleaner shrimp jump all over him....

    new to Anenomnes

    you don't need medal halides to keep an anemone. If you have about 4-5 watts per gallon you can get away with a bubble tip. They require less lighting than others. I wouldn't recomend any other anemone other than the bubble tip if you dont go with mh lighting. Perfect water conditions are...

    Any Comments

    It is very similiar to Kick- Ich. The active ingrediant is an antiobiotic similiar to metrodonizale, but only for water. It kills Ich in its free swimming mode which breaks the ich cycle. It takes about a month of treatment to kill all the ich so don't listen to the instructions on the back...

    Sickly Foxface

    I know I am going to hear it for even saying this but if it ws my fish i would defenilty mediacte the fish with meracyn-2. The stuff will get thie fish to eat and make it healthy once again.

    strange crab?

    well if your tang did die the crab did his job. Crabs generally are part of a clean up crew that eat sick, dead, or dying fish. They also eat left over food and keep the tank clean. I doubt that 2 inch bristle crab would take down a tang. See if you can post a pic of the crab and i'm sure...

    ICH!!!! Not again

    garlic in food is usually given to entice a fish to eat who is not eating. It also has been shown to improve a fish's immune system. i only dose the food twice a week and it seems to help the fish out. If you have to use kick-ich make sure you use it for the whole month, as someone has...

    r banded cat sharks hardy?

    60 gallon tank is a real small tank for any type of shark. Try feeding him to squid to get him going.

    ICH!!!! Not again

    Kick Ich worked for more after using it for a full month. Why wouldn't it work? It is an antibiotic which kills parasites, bacteria, and amoeba's. It doesn't kill the ich off the fish. It just kills the parasite when it is in its free-swimming stage. By doing this it breaks the cycle and...
