It's weird, I've had 2 clown triggers before (not at the same time though) and both were sweethearts.....I had a Picasso Trigger in there with them and he was a holy terror. Nigers are pretty mellow for triggers, so are pinktails. Undulated, blue-lines, and queens would have to be the worst.

Hot peppers! Mama mia !!

mujtba, I thought maybe you had called the company and asked them......but then, they might not tell you anyway because it would be giving away their "trade secret" I know that when you have a fish in hypo the ich literally burst due to the low salinity and osmotic concentration.....but if...

mujtba, Thanks, but that is exactly what I thought they were saying, so I didn't misinterpret, I just question that statement from them......I would like to know exactly how it removes ich from the sick fish. Do you know?

o2ngk, I agree completely.....as I stated several times, I really believe the original poster was genuinely trying to be helpful. If it seems like it helped, then I say great! If it added more slime coat to a fish, that in itself is a good thing. I have more of a problem with the company...

fish4ever, Well, I never said it didn't work for him.....in a previous post, I speculated as to why his solution may have worked.......I just know it didn't work for me, unfortunately.....there have been several inaccuracies in this thread, one of which being that ich is an invert which it is...

fish4ever, I think you're confusing "arrogance" with "opinion"....look, the original poster came on here in what I believe was a spirit of helpfulness and related their experience with a particular product. That's their right....I'm glad he posted it. However, my personal experience with this...

Every time I read threads like this, it reminds me of an argument I got into with the "veteran" at my LFS......this was several years ago.....he was getting onto me for taking my fish (mostly tangs) out of the display and into a QT tank.....he said that it was useless because the ich would still...

Chiller is SOLD

crimzy, Nice setup there......especially the eppie. psusocr1, Nice pics, love the eel and shark.....great photography too BTW TriGGer29, The shark is a 22" horn shark, the ray is a 10" yellow ray.....they should be OK the rest of their lives in there....the tank is a 480gal, 8' X 2' X 4'

Here's some pics of my horn shark:

I would definitely go with a closed loop in a shark/ray tank, for a couple of reasons. 1) the shark/ray will either bump the powerhead, get tangled in the power cord, or worse yet, bite the power cord, and 2) sharks are VERY sensitive to electromagnetic impulses, all the way to 1 millionth of...

Price drop to $500 + shipping.....lowest it will go....if it doesn't sell I'll try ---- or keep it as a backup in case of emergency.

I'm selling my Pacific Coast 1/2hp chiller, model C-050. It works great but is just not big enough for my tank, a 480gal with 100gal sump. I bought it used...the guy I bought it from said it was 2-3 years old......it's in pretty good shape and runs great. Asking $550 plus shipping......I paid...

On my 480 I had them "round-off" the overflows by putting them in the corners at a 45 degree angle, thus minimizing the amount of 90 degree angles in the tank.....it's not true rounding but it's close.....sharks/rays don't much appreciate 90 degree angles......just a thought for your tank design.

I'm probably going to sell my Pacific Coast 1/2hp chiller very soon....if you're interested let me know.

psusocr1, Yeah, I know what you're talking about.....and I wasn't directing my post to anyone except the original poster....I just wanted to relate my experience so far with sharks....I really love mine, he is beautiful, surprisingly agile yet powerful, and is my favorite tank inhabitant......I...

I set up my 480gal for a shark/ray combination.....it's 8' long, 2' tall, and 4' front-to-back.....after I set it up I thought "man this is a huge tank, I can put anything I want in it".....well after a few tangs/foxfaces/tusk I added a 9" yellow ray....all of a sudden the tank didn't look quite...

Do you think my chiller needs a freon charge? I'm just trying to get a good gauge of its performance.....

I don't know of any benthic (bottom dwelling) small sharks that are not nocturnal.....most all sharks are more active at night....
