i have really found this is a live and learn hobby. when i can finally get my fish out of the qt tank, i am setting up a permanent qt. i have a couple of fish in my healthy 55 that i dont want, a chromis and some kind of damsel, came with the tank. so i will use them to cycle the tank. i am...

ok. i didn't know how long the copper treatment needed to be applied. so i have like 2 weeks to go. now, is it too late to do the hyposalinity???? I guess i wasn't sure that was an option. so if i take out 4 gallons, i copper treat for 4 gallons, correct?? gosh, now i know why it is so...

beth wow, my fish look great, looks like we saved 4 of them. they have been in copper now 8 days and i see no signs of anything on them. the tank they were in is going to sit with no fish, my question is, i only have one fish in my other 55, its in good shape and well established. can i move my...

no, i moved the fish to a 29 qt tank. pvc pipe and some fake stuff for them to hide in, barebottom. nemo died. my coral beauty has spots, and one of her fins had spots and it looked like it was being ate off. dory has spots on her tail, but her eyes look clear now, my lffairywrasse, has spots...

oooo, i had already used coppersafe. is that bad?? right now i don't see much, they seem to be eating and doing well. the only thing i can say i saw is a patch of skin missing from on nemos head, but that could be from trying to catch his butt. my wrasse has some white spots on him, and dory has...

hi parameters are good. i set up a 29 gallon qt, and my fish are in it, not real happy, but in it. they actually looked better today, but i said, to heck iwth it, tore everything apart, caught them and took them downstairs to the qt tank where it is quiet. used coppersafe in there. is there...

hi beth. the only thing i can tell you is i am seeing white cloudy spots on the eyes. otherwise the fish seem ok. the yellow goby has skin around his head mostly that has come off in chunks, its just hanging on him. like he got a sunburn and its peeling, only pretty deep. hes not really yellow...

help!! so far i have lost my royal gramma, i think my hi fin my star fish is missing two legs, like they are rotting off, its still alive, but sheesh. my little clown goby, i can't believe he is still alive. looks like he got a sunburn and his skin is peeling off. my clown now has the spotty...

my friend has a brittle star whos mid section seems to be like disinigrating, but the legs are still flexible and moving. what could be going on with it??

hi it did survive, it began to eat really well, but then another fish started pickingon it and it died. pre ella was pretty sick over it.

Hi PreElla!!! looks like you are getting some good advice here!!! wow, i didn't realize you could wait a whole month!! i want to come see her, oh yeah, i will see her tomorrow!! of the next day when our order is here!! dani

hi zelfin its a place on line called Ocean Pods essentiallivefeeds(dot)com they are a great help!!! 25 bucks(plus shipping) for a bottle of 1000. but well worth it!! if you luv mandarins, this is a must!!!

so i got sucked in to spending 5 bucks on nothing. they saw me coming. so, IF my fish get worse again as beth said they may, i will have to move my mandarin into the main tank, put my tang and goby in the qt tank and start to reduce salinity? what about a fresh water dip (with ich medication)...

amen to that aquafox. i got my but out of pure ignorance, and did not know he would starve!! so i purchased pods, poored half the bottle in my quarentine tank half inthe main tank and viola! pods. keeping an eye out to make sure they maintain~

hi beth you can call me dani. i will read it. hope it is not ich. if it is, what do you do?

ok ok, i am sure tatoo is male, he has a very long stalk, and i was pretty positive this was female, because she didn't, but by the way he reacted I thought i was missing something:notsure: . anyway, thanks for reassuring this is a female. someone also said females are hard to find in stores...

Hi all!! I am assuming you all believe this IS a female, correct?? thanks for all the good advice, i had thought about putting the male in the pod tank when i put the female in the main tank. letting her establish some territory and then putting him back in. this aggression was kinda bad. he...

Anyone???

lemonpeel angels are hardy and very cute. if i had a bigger tank i think i would consider a hawk fish, have lots of personality!! ooo a fairy wrasse would be awesome!
