So I changed out 10 gallons of water tonight and started raising my specific gravity. No one is this area sells the cupramine. I'm going to have to order it on line. Al Mc, did you purchase some sort of test kit to go with this? I'm just hoping my last tang can hold on until I can get these...

Just checking back in after a few days. Have had the fish at the 1.009, solid. They look terrible and are started to be very negatively affected, ? either from longtern hypo or ich or both. Lost one of my 2 tangs yesterday, and a very old zebra damsel (he was prob about 6yrs old!). Other...

I'm with you sepulation on the copper. I feel extremely hesitant to do the copper. I have never had good luck with this. I have lowered the SG back to the 1.009 again. This was completed yesterday. The two tangs looked even worse this morning. They both seem absolutely covered in the ick...

Wow, great video. I sat awed for the whole 9min.! I also loved the yellow and black tang! I want one, I want one! So not to seem stupid, but whats deltec?

I am definitely feeling worried about the lengh of time in hypo. The tangs look pretty bad today. The other fish dont seem too bad. I'm going to give them a few more days at the 1.oo9 and see if they improve. If not, then I think I will move to a chemical treatment. I do already have copper...

Well, I almost made it through the whole QT getting rid of ich process. My fish have been in hyposalinity for about 6 weeks now. I slacked overr a few weeks and didnt stay ontop of the water evaporation and my lovely ich is back! Definitely not as bad as when the fish first went in, but all...

very nice tank. What kind of coral is that in the first pic between the gorg and snail shell?

I would have to sneak it! I've tried to talk tank stuff with him before (he's my friends husband), I dont think he is the type of person who would take my advise on whats going on in the tank. There was a corner of this stuff flipped over one time and I thought it was a rotting fish! Can...

I'll try and get a pic sometime when I'm over there. I took care of their animals last week which is why I noticed this algae again. Weird stuff. Very difficult to describe unless you see it. Their fish got sick at one point and they put these tabs in to cure the fish. These tabs killed the...

Quick question after reading some of these threads about cyano or some other types of algaes. I have a friend who has a salt tank and he gets this thick red hairy looking algae that grows over every surface in the tank. Apparently when they clean the tank this stuff is so thick he rolls it...

I got mine from Ibew. Check with him. Good prices, good job on shipping and they are all doing very well in my tank. I would highly recommend him.

I dont thinks its a lemon peel because it doesnt have the blue and white markings that these typically have around the eyes. Looks like a yellow pygmy angel. I have one, looks just like it. Nice fish, great personality. Just an FYI you cannot have more than one angel fish in a tank.

those valances are too cute. They will look and match very nicely in the room. Looks great! Now all you need is a baby to put in there.

Hey all, just read this post. I didnt know about not having condy's and clowns. I had a condy, at least what I thought was a condy, and I had a clown fish always hosting it and at times my black domino damsel hosted it too! Maybe it wasnt a condy. I'll try to find some pics and post them. I...

congratulations and great job. They look really good.

Hey Scarbone, How did it go today? Everyone pull through?

You can send them to me!!!!

trust me, I do think about generators, but that just isnt in the budget! Some day and some day I'll have that 500 gallon tank!!! Good luck, I'm sure all will work out just fine.
