i'll put up regarding my tap water experiences...i started out 6 years using tap water. i only really had FOWLR over the years and most of my fish seemed OK with the tap water. It wasn't until almost 2 years ago when i purchased an Achilles tang and for the first year and a half i had constant...

Another update today... last night i noticed that the spots on the hippo tang became a lot smaller than the previous dayand then were gone this morning. that was exactly 48 hours from the initial "sighting" of spots that they were gone. the boxfish has one new spot on his pectoral fin that...

I'm not Beth or Terry...but i'll tell you what i've experienced and researched. I've hypo'd my display i tihkn 4 times in the year now (had some bad luck with ich, mostly my fault) and my fish have shown no negative effects. i've read that there were some experiments where angelfish were kept...

i just finished hypo'ing my tank for ich. the salinity (not SG) was at 12-13ppt for a period of 5 weeks. i checked the salinity daily and made sure the refractometer was calibrated properly. i removed my inverts (3 urchins and a few snails) out of the display for the entire hypo treatment and...
