Just an update. The potters angel is still doing very well. He still does not seem to be eating the brine or mysis but I see him picking at the glass and rocks all the time. Figure a fish can't surive for 4 weeks without food so he has to be eating something.........

I have a refractometer that should be configured correctly at 68 degrees... I am just a little worried about the ammonia and lowering the sal any more..... Thanks for the response....... Cory

I do have a question about this hypo stuff. I only have a 10 gallon for my QT and do not have a skimmer for it. I have found high levels of Ammonia every other day so I do a complete water change using water from my DT and RODI to bring the levels down to what the fish is in now. I have had...

WOW what a tank.........

I am not an expert but I will share a recent lesson learned about Hypo. I have a long nose butterfly that showed signs of ICH (got real bad). I placed it in a QT and started using copper to treat him, however since I am not the best at measuring and the copper test kit showed that there was...

Not that I am an expert or anything but was the rock cured. I have had to cure rock for several weeks before putting it in my tank to make sure that anything that was in the rock that died (during shipping) was gone so it didn't cause an chemical spike. Put the rock in a 5 gallon bucket with...

It is kind of a bummer that frozen brine has no nutrit. value. I soak the Brine in Selcon for about a hour before feeding. I do put Mysis in the tank but it seems that no one in the tank wants to eat it. I will keep trying with the Mysis because I know it's better for the fish. Thanks for...

Not the best pictures in the world. Had to take them with my phone. Don't even know if you will be able to see the attachments, but he seems to be doing GREAT. Going to add a long Nose Butterfly tonight........

Just wanted to let you all know that so far the potters is doing VERY WELL. After reading Alyssa's post I do hope that he survives the long haul but so far he is eating frozen brine soaked in garlic, picking at the rock and seems to have a lot of energy. I have a 90 with about 125 lbs of rock...

I took the jump and put him in the main tank. The other dwarf angels are leaving him alone and he seems to be pecking at the rock and the bottom so maybe all he needed was some tender loving care and lots of prayers. I will re-post any changes. Thanks to all. I love this site cause you folks...

Right now he is in a quar. tank with no live rock but he seems to have gotten rid of all the white spots (I think because of the fresh water dip) so I was thinking about putting him back in the main tank. I just didn't want to rush putting him in the main and then him breaking out with ICK or...

I bought a potters angel from my LFS. He had been quar. and eating but after acc. him for 3 1/2 hours, I placed him in my main tank. Leaving the lights off for 24 hours he looked great and the other fish were not aggressive towards him but he stopped eating. On the third day I noticed he was...

I have a 10 gallon QT. I keep an extra piece of live rock in my sump as well as an extra sponge filter and move it to the QT when I set it up. I take water from my 90 and then add enough RO/DI water to it to equal the SAL level the fish are coming from. I slowly bring up the SAL level to...

I guess now it's a mute point. All the water quality was perfect. I bought a Hippo at the same time. He was eating last night like it was going out of style but die today. I have not had any luck with QT's. There is an 85% loss rate using it. When I qcclimate them to my 90 i have an 85%...

Yesterday I posted a thread about my lemon peel. So far he is still alive but not eating. I bought a Hippo as the same time and had both in a QT. The Hippo was eating like a champ but when the lights came on this morning he was gone. The lemon peel I decided to move to my big tank in hopes...

I think after reading Emporer11's thread I am going to wait a while until I try again with a big angel... The thing is they are just so cool to look at.....If they last..... Thanks E11

I just got a Lemon Peel last Saturday and have him in a Qt. He has not eaten since I put him in the tank. I have tried Flake, Frozen Briine soaked in Selcon, open mussells, Nori, and he just won't eat anything. Any suggestions.........

Guess I am adding some stuff to my wish list......

There is probably a post on this already but I was not able to find one. Is it true that they gave a 15 Day Guarantee on their saltwater fish. I have never heard of such a thing....I have read the guarentee and it states anything that says NG in not gurarnteed. I looked at several of the fish...

how did you get them to replace it????? Did it not look good when you got the fish. My problem is they are sooooo cool I just don't know if I can walk into a lfs and walk out if they hove one in stock.......
