    Plate Coral?

    I had a short tentacle for about a year. Had it under T5's and it wasnt happy, so I put in on the sand bed of my 19 gallon with 150w MH's and it did much better. Then it started withering away. But it has 3 babies on the skeleton. Its back in my large tank with the T5s, up high with lots of...

    Restocking after disaster!

    Well, if anyone ever hangs out on the disease thread forum, back in October I started a thread of a diary of hypo on all the fish in my DT. This was done in a QT. Didnt do the hypo correctly, all in all, lost all fish but one Goby. This goby is now in my 19 gallon. I plan to restock my DT in...

    ocellaris clownfish lazy or sick?

    I had four in a tank at one time, all purchased together. Eventually, I had one that kept getting picked on by the others. He pretty much always stayed in one area. I ended up splitting them into pairs in two different tanks. Much better!

    can gobies get ich?

    As the title states I'm wondering about this. I have a yellow watchman goby that has survived the horror of my QT tank hypo experience. He has never had any signs of ich on him, but I removed all fish from my DT, so he got to be part of the fun. I know mandarins cant get it because they have...

    ?balast shot

    Bulb is brand new. This was happening before, so I replaced the bulb. 3rd bulb I've replaced now over a 1 year span. I think its the fixture, but cant figure out whats wrong. I'm going to have to take out all of the coral. I've been without light in this tank for 4 days now.

    ?balast shot

    I bought my 19 gallon bowfront tank with 175w MH light last December used from a friend. I think the ballast is shot on the tank because the last 4 days the light wont turn on, it just flashes periodically. Is this in fact the ballast, and how long do these generally last. I have no idea how...

    2nd round of hypo

    I think there was a few factors here. I didnt have a QT tank started from the beginning, so it was a thrown together QT. I did use as much water as possible from my DT, but all the same. I dont think water got above 1.010 or 1.011. It is a 45 gallon tank that had 2 tangs and several other...

    How do you make mushrooms stick to rocks?

    I rubberband mine to rocks. 90% of the time they stay, if its too tight or too loose sometimes the mushroom can pop out. Works pretty well IMO. Goodluck

    2nd round of hypo

    I do think I will order the cupramine on line so I can treat the remaining fish and kill the ich that is in the QT tank. At least I have a QT set up now. Trying to decide what fish quest to take after this whole mess is cleared up. I love tangs, but they are so prone to ich. I've go awhile...

    2nd round of hypo

    I have 2 pet stores in my area, neither sell cupramine. I was going to order it online but then these guys all started dying. I'm not sure if its truly the ich completely at this point or how long they have been in hypo. I've started the process of raising the salinity. The 3 remaining fish...

    2nd round of hypo

    so I just found the cupramine online and found the test kit too, (Thanks AlMc ) Came accross a medication called Euthanese. So out of curiousity I clicked on it. Its a medicine to put your fish to sleep to euthanise it. I cant believe they make such a product! Then I found a product to...
