    Maintenance

    My 90 FOWLR has been VERY stable for about 9 months. Just weekly water changes, keeping an eye on the salinity has been about all that I have needed to do. Tank is about 2 1/2 years old now. What kind of things other than water changes do I need to make sure I am doing?

    Let's talk about ick, baby

    Thanks for all the input. I have started a course where I put the ick medicine in the food (the name of the med starts with a "m", didn't bring it to work with me) and added some garlic extreme.
