Sounds like you have alot going on with your tank, have you disturbed the LR or LS, that may be that cause of the cloudiness! My clowns get all annoyed when i mess with the tank to much! They have even started swatting at me! I think it's funny!

Nice timing, i was just going to post myself, i have 2 btas that never had bubbles at the tips! Always all streched out !

Anyone know what i means when a bta rolls up on itself, i have had them for about 3 week snow , eating real good and look great, But just when i got home i see them all rolled up , tenicales all pulled inside! Seemed to have relaxed now, was wondering if they are going to split?!?!

I am with you folks on this, it concerns me that it lived past 8 weeks! How do you fight something that you can even test for until you put your fish in! I have noticed the only time i see the ick is with my achilles tang, Beautiful fish but just has to go!

Red and Hairy, Sounds like Cryno Bacteria, there is a product out there called red slime remover, works great! If you have shrimp, snails and LR you can not treat Ick in the main tank! You need to QT the fish! But, the real quiestion is why do you have ick, to many fish, water quality, what type...

I have been battling the Phophates aswell, very good thread, i never even thought about a the reactor! A sea hare is a slug that is supposed to be great at eating hair alge! BUT you need to have pre filters on your powerheads, if it gets sucked up and dies it will pollute your tank ! Can you...

Woohooooo at that price i will take 2!

7 lbs a gal+/- for your LR and LS, I would suggest building the frame out of 4x4's to insure you will support the wieght!

I have a 60 now but i am wanting to upgrade here in a few months, Are Uv Sterlizers worth it and can i get one that will handle say 150 gal tank and use on my 60 for now? Or should i just get one for the 60 since it will become my sump/fuge with the upgrade? Thanks

It does get better! Mine was tearing up my tank nonstop! The cloudiness has dropped and everything looks so nice! And yes the are tile surfers! Get some egg crate for the top of your tank!

what are you going to do when they grow up, feeding twice a day will surly speed that process! I don't know about the bi-color angel, but the lion and naso tang get quite large!

I like this Thread, It makes people think about what they are actually doing! I have personally stopped people from buying in the LFS , I asked how big is your tank, how old is it, what kind of lighting! I only did this because the LFS did not! What bothers me is that, there are alot of folks...

a fresh water dip causes even more stress! You don't really want to do it unless it is a last resort! Jusr from you discription it could be brooknella (sp) here is a link to look at https://forums.saltwaterfish.com/t/127010/diseased-fish-pictures

Not if your carrful! It's coraline alge probably, it will come off easy with a razor blade

#1 Your tank was in the process of cycling, Ammonia was at .25 i think you said, You added 9 fish, which increased the bioload, Probably shot the Ammonia up over .50+/- Ammonia in any lvls can kill quicly! #2 He did not lie to you , he merely sold you fish! It is your job to research and...

You still never said what kind of snails!

I did read that sticky, good info there! I had tried to feed them and they where not taking the food, so i was looking for more info! I just needed to be more like krill to get them to take it! I am going to pickup some silversides and mysis , i think i am going to make up some food of my own...

I did finally get my bta's to eat, just took some patience! Had to act like a shrimp for a bit!
