If I would know that it would survive for more than a year, I would. It is a very nice angel. Is it a hybrid? Never mind I just saw that it is.

Originally Posted by sepulatian Yes, I said it above. Being that tangs are very susceptible to ich I didn't want to take any chances. In the remote possibility that one single parasite may be waiting to reproduce, I dropped the SG down even further to be sure that it would be impossible for...

Originally Posted by THEREEFER9 Then what sets us apart from the rest of the world. Many other countries as previously mentioned consider soccer as a religion of sorts and it already has a global support so what makes it imposible to gain mainstream support here? I do agree though it would be...

Originally Posted by sepulatian No, they will be fine. I just finished hyposalinity for four weeks on a Scopas tang. The last week I kept the SG at 1.007. No particular research involved in that. I just wanted to be certain that if any ich was to be "late bloomers" that they would not be able...

Originally Posted by Beth And, likely quinine sulfate was the big secret cure to begin with. No real secret, though. Could it be quinine sulfate and something else?

Originally Posted by SWFein No I didnt. The bottom ones are touching the bottom of tank (not sand) and some of the middle ones are resting against the back of the tank. I gave it a pretty good shake and nothing happened so I guess we will see over time. Im keeping my fingers crossed. I sure...

Originally Posted by gmann1139 pH tends to correlate to specific gravity, meaning as specific gravity increases, so does the pH. Alkalinity, or carbonate hardness, is the bridge between the two. Hi there, Can you explain "tends to correlate". If I understand your point correctly, pH level...

Originally Posted by roberteb I just did another 44 gallon freshwater exchange and my salinity has dropped to 1.011. I will do the final water change tonight to get salinity to 1.009. Ammonia is at 0. pH is at 8.2-8.3 All fish are behaving "normal". My yellow tangs, which did not do well at...

Originally Posted by SCSInet IMO, if I lived in an open area where I could really go for this sort of thing, I'd do wind power. It seems like you can get a LOT more for a LOT less, but I'd imagine that a wind tower with moving parts would have higher maintenance costs. Is wind power more...

Hi there, That I did it not someone else.

Hi there, One point of advise since the tank has been running for 4 years. I do not know how deep your subtrate is nor if it had been vacumed on a regular basis. If it has not been cleaned on a regular basis and it is at least 2"-3" deep, be very carefull cleaning it as you might crash your...

Hi there, I will answear your questions as best as I can. Originally Posted by FPG 1. For the Biological Filter, is it ok to get a small Live Rock and mix Live Sand with Standard white sand for the substrate? That will be fine, I would use minium 7-10 lbs of LR. I am not sure what you mean by...

Originally Posted by Flower No way is the Sg reading what you posted. First recheck the SG. Most hydometers have a safe zone marked right on it. Is your Sg in the safe zone? A PH that low should have the answer of not in the safe zone. That would mean for you to add more salt. Hi there, Why...

It won't hurt anything to be very high. I was told salt creep could become a problem from too high alk. If you don't mind, can you explain this for me I am confused.
