Originally posted by Bang Guy But then, I'm in it for the long haul. I will be disappointed if my Tang doesn't live to be 30 or 40. how old are u going to be when that happens? i think u should put in your will that i get the tang when u croak, along with the lagoon....;)

they look like yellow polyps too me...harmless.

thanks terry how often should i does and for how long...i'm currently finishing the first week of hypo. should i continue for another 3-4weeks or start with the copper immediately?

Originally posted by Bang Guy I have a different take on that but my opinion fits in well with yours. I believe Tangs grow slower when they are stressed. Placing them in a smaller tank is going to cause significant stress. i agree

i think tangs (and most large fish) grow slower in small tanks...my hippo tang only grew about an inch in the 2yrs he was in my 55gal. in the past eight months in the 125gal he's grown another inch (7" now) and "bulked up" a bit, the same happened with my boxfish. also both fish look much better...

is it better to have them alternate for every few minutes? i'm basically trying to replicate "surge zones" for my achilles tang. the tank is a 125gal FOWLR. what would be the best way to set something like this up? like i said i'm ignorant with this stuff ;)

i want to get a wavemaker on my dispaly tank..i currently have 6 maxi-jets (3 on each end) and want to set up a wavemaker that will alternate each side in 6 hour intervals. i'm not too familiar with wave-makers so any ideas would be very helpful brian

very sorry for your loss...what probably happened was that there was a small cycle in the 20gal with the introduction of the fish (which is why you have nitrites a fully cycled tank has no ammonia or nitrites). this put stress on the fish and combined with being moved into a smaller tank casued...

i really like the bettas as well...i have heard some people say that they have been able to keep them with cleaner shirmp witout problems but also some that couldn't. i guess its hit or miss with them.

i used it before...took all the inverts out. all the stuff did was give my skimmer a workout, cured nothing. waste of money IMO

Originally posted by smoothounds i wouldnt suggest it. I have a couple in a 200 gallon and they swim around allot. I couldnt imagine stuffing them in such a small tank. i agree smoothounds....when i moved my hippo tang from my 55gal to my 125gal i witnessed such a change in behavior. he...

Originally posted by Terry B Do you have another tank in your house that has had ich in it? A: I have a 55gal QT that has a couple fish in it...i havent seen any evidence of "ich" in there How sure you are that it is not something other than ich? It could be something other than ich. Can you...
