Originally Posted by hardcrab67 Sorry for your loss, How many fish per bucket(how big a bucket) did you acclimate at a time? You said for a couple hrs acclimation, bigger fish require more O2 and will use it up more rapidly. Suffication could be the stress here and the new tank was just too...

I dont know what the toxin could be, I dont use windex or anything like that... simple green cause of the baby being in the house and the dogs... Like I said everyone else is doing great establishing territorys and such. I am going to have to get a new tang though cause the lunare wrasse is...

Originally Posted by milomlo I am thinking since you changed out your substrate that maybe you didn't have enough bacteria and it started to cycle. That is all I can think of. But of course above you say your ammonia and everything is 0. What about the saltmix - did you change?? IDK if that...

Originally Posted by ophiura Was the tank rinsed with anything? What are the symptoms the fish are showing? How soon after addition to the tank did they start to die? No the tank was only cleaned and wiped down with a saltwater mix, which is what I used on the skimmer and everything else that I...

Add one Domino Damsel RIP spot you will be missed! Anyone got any ideas why this happened? All other fish look great swimming in the caves and all around they ate when i fed them this morning... They look happy. Not showing any indication that they are going to croak like the other ones.

Took water to LFS, they said it was great. I dont remember the exact parameters the temp is good.... maybe it was just the stress of catching everyone? I mean I had to chase some of these guys down. Plus it wouldnt make sense why some died but the 5 that are left are thriving. Maybe they got...

I would have a huge tank built in the middle of a house and so that in all the rooms that touched it you would be able to see the tank. And upstairs you would have a great view from a balcony on your way to the other rooms. Even the basement would have a view of all the cool bottom dwellers and...

its just devastationg that such a beautiful hobby has so much death associated with it. Not only do you lose fish do to uncompatibility but when you upgrade you lose them to. Some of those fish were with me for over a year. They had grown from little bitty guys to some 3+ inches in length. I...

{Edit language} .... Saltwater fish.com should have a place where we can post reviews about places that we deal with, couldnt they just have a disclaimer that says that they cannot stand behind whether or not the places reputation is good or bad, I got this from a web site not the auction site...
