    I am worried about this clown

    I have had this clown for a year, and now he is swiming inside a Live Rock with his head down and his body straight up and he has decreased his eating. He may have early signs of ick on him but none at all on the black and white clown, or the gobie, or the mandarin that I have. I have a QT tank...

    Testing the water

    What do you use to get your water readings? I have the strips and a Red Sea Marine Lab, that it is hard to read those looking down into the test tube, sometimes I get a color that is not even on the color chart. When do you use the PH Buffer, when the PH is high or low? I am grateful to have...

    Little white specks?

    Thank you so much for all your help. Ok then should I add sand for the star fish since now he goes in the tub with all non fish critters? Does he need sand to live, and do I need to feed all the non fish critters? What about those damsels, I am reading bad things about them. That they are mean.

    Little white specks?

    My emperor angle has tiny white specks on his tail fin and just a few on his body, I did do a 20% water change today. Did not notice them until I did the water change. No one else has them. Any thoughts on this? I noticed that he is hanging by the cleaner shrimp and getting groomed a good bit.
