    feeding snowflake question

    I tried a SFE a long time ago. I ended up having to take him back to my lfs because he was a little too active. By that I mean he went surfing a couple times and was aggresive when hungry. anyways... I hand-fed him twice a day (I had to or he would attack the other fish) 2-3 small pieces of...

    best temp for fish

    Originally posted by stillfrodo I used to stop feeding my pond fish when the temp got below 60. From what I have read lower temp keeps metabolism slower and less waste. Thats right But you can feed until the temp reaches about 50 as long as you feed them a food low in protein (wheat germ)...

    Whao! That is an awesome Emperor and Tank. I'm very impressed! :eek: What size was he when you got him? He looks very small to have that much transformation.

    Purple Tang

    I have used Zoe to treat HLLE and seen improvement. I'm sure your fish will improve with either additive. Plus I'm sure your water is better than the lfs you got the fish from.

    Freshwater fish!

    The Basics are not that much different, true... BUT, I have come to realize that the health keeping of SW fish is much more involved and challenging. Yeah, if you stick with hardy fish and plain LR, you shouldn't have to worry too much.

    Freshwater fish!

    I was your age when I got into fish. :) I tried swordtails, gourmeys (sp?), and goldfish. Very easy and entertaining. Now I do both, I have several Japanese Koi in a 4,000 gal pond and a 55gal FOWRL. It's good that your gonna give fresh a try before salt. Saltwater is much much more demanding...

    French Angel looks sick

    That or the skin of your French has been destroyed by ich. Put all of your fish in a QT and treat for the ich and the secondary infections that will follow.
