    Ick and Anemone?

    So if I remove my live rock and 1 anemone to treat a main display tank for ick using hypo treatment, I read it's okay to leave the live rock in a bucket of salt water with a PH. What about the anemone? Doesn't it need light? If I don't us medications, just the hypo treatment, besides removing...

    Is Ick contangious?

    I think there is 0 chance the small tank got infected. I have a royal gramma (in the 60g) that I first saw small white spots (really hard to tell). I moved my Por. Puffer in the tank on Saturday. On Sunday I decided to put the power heads I removed back in the tank. The puffer got stuck in one...

    Is Ick contangious?

    Bottom line: 60 gallon tank, 5 fish, at least 1 (possable 2) with ick. No hospital tank, but only a few pounds of live rock and 1 anemone in the main tank. I have a 30 gallon, but it has 4 fish doing okay (yes, I should have kept it for a hospital tank, but I got over excited and kept buying...

    Is Ick contangious?

    Will Ick eventually kill fish? If a fish has it, and you remove the fish, could the other fish have gotten it?

    Bad to eat blue leg hermit crabs?

    I just moved my Porcupine Puffer into a new tank. It had been cycling now for 2 months, and as a small cleaning crew. Mostly large turbo snails and a few Ast. snails (no shrimps, or clams). My question is, I also have about 1 dozen small blue leg hermit crabs, will the puffer try and eat them? I...

    Running Carbon - yes or no

    Thank you, I ran carbon for about a month and by the end, the water looked great. I removed the carbon (but did not replace it) after the 3rd week. After a day or two the water started to look not quite as clear (polished). I wondered if it was the carbon, so now I will probobly run it with...

    tap water

    What? Re-explain Do you have salt water that has been sitting around, or do you have tap water? Always purify tap water, and always double check the salt level with a hydrometer (or refractometer, that's if you have salt water pre-mixed).

    Extra Filter???

    I was wondering is it good or bad to "overkill" on filters? And what would be a better supplemental filter? I have a 60 gallon FOWLR (and I am going to start a 90G FOWLR). I was am using a canister filter for the main filteration, and of course a protein skimmer. I was debating between a "power...

    Strange question, should I care?

    The opening is not blocked, and he could squeeze out I guess. He doesn't seem to try. As far as not wanting him, he just doesn't seem to do much but hide in the rock.

    Strange question, should I care?

    Long story short. I have a 60g FOWLR. I got a small cleaning crew, including a small serpent star. He crawled into a small hole in the LR and was not come out. The hole is so small even if I wanted to, I can not reach him. I got more LR and wanted to rearrange my LR. In doing so, I turned the...
