just realized that this post is still being kept alive......Sohal and all other fish were sold for asking prices. as far as tank is concerned, I do have a 55g w/ iron stand for sale. Let me know if anyone interested. No shipping. would have to pick up. thx.

Thanks. It's actually a friend who asked and is doing it. I also told him he would have to hypo anyway.

Beth or anyone- If you dip infected fish in freshwater for 5 minutes and them place them into normal salinity while leaving the display fishless for 6 weeks, will that do the trick? Fish were already dipped in f/w and are doing fine in normal salinity/clean 55g- Q tank. Quick response w/b...

I'm not aware of any reef safe medication that works in combating ich. jcrim-Chem marine---How long did you use it? when you state it worked, what type of fish had ich and how long have you been w/o ich? intrigued but not convinced.....thx.

Unfortunately there are no gaurentees that clown will host. ALso, what kinf of anenome?

it's ok to leave it all day for grazing. be sure to change it every day if there is left over as it does tend to decompose and eventually smell. go the nori route....much better on the pocket and it's the same thing you are getting - the LFS.

emperor should not be considered hardy. I've had little luck w/ them. seem to do better when you get them as juvi's. the only problem is that you are not gauranteed that they their adult colors will fully mature. especially the face mask. koran hardier but emperor more striking in appearance...

best thing is to go to chinese deli and get nori--seaweed sheets used for sushi. Usual color is green and is much cheeper then LFS.

HAve had mine for 4+ years now and he's great! Eats like a pig. Is hardy. About 5 inches now...kind of a slow grower. Max he'll get is 8-10 inches in tank. Great fish that adapted well from the begining. WOuld recommend.

junkiebeas- how are the tangs in your 55? cleaner wrasse seems to be quite busy. Naso also looked like it has had a constant case of ich...this is based on looking at the picture....admit it could be quality of pic. how about an update....I'm really interested since you apparently have had all...

definately not a true pair as there is too much of a size differential and I don't think the female is mature enough to breed. In any event they do get along really well and it's quite neat to see them together. I have no expectations of breeding just neat to have 2 of them in the same tank. As...

everthing is accurate accept I would not consider them as "easy". they are very prone to ich and stress easily. &0g may also be a bit on the small size for a fish as active and big as the hippo.

as raw fish decomposes it creates amonia which is needed to start the cycle. However agree that you should buy some more L/r AND ALLOW IT TO CYCLE THE TANK FOR YOU. aS FAR AS FISH ....RG and firish s/b ok. you need to wait 3-4 months or so before you can add pygmy. needs a more established tank...

thry don't return e-mails, have no phone number to contact them in case of emergency, had DOA cleaner shrimp they claimed they never received and as a result no credit, requested on a sunday to cancel my order which was still in pending status and still delivered it on a tuesday. .....all of...

I have a 55g on the bottom of a 125g. There is not enough clearence to allow me to put a hang on skimmer. Collection cup will not fit. As such I'm forced to go w/ an itnernal skimmer. No sump. Any suggestions on a good internal skimmer for a 55g? Any experience w/ visi jet internal skimmer?

I will be putting a pair of scribble angels(male is 6 inches, female is 3 inches) and a pair of true percs in my 125g on Friday. really looking forward to it. They've been q'd and ready to go. Wish me luck.

Neat tank. I think if you add the yellow tang and a damsel, you'll be overstocked. The heniochus will outgrow your tank as it is. I would pesonally hold off on any tangs. If you want some yellow and blue in a small fish, try the yellow belly blue damsel. They are also on the "tame side " as far...

My tank raised hosts w/ RBTA. Ty to aquaculture when possible. These little guys deseve to be left in the sea if we can get them otherwise. In this case we can! good luck.

Hey Jw and others.....I'm cautiously trying to get back into it. I am not getting the powder blue....too risky(ich magnet and all). I am going w/ the scribble and majestic in 125g, along with 2 percs, and a yellow belly damsel....that's it. We'll see how it goes. as stated majestic about 5...

Thx. Any other thoughts?
