    Ready for Display Tank?

    I had a case of Ich and put my Clown in Hypo for 7 weeks (6 weeks Ich free). The DT tank has been fish free during that time. I slowly raised the Salinity up from 1.009 to 1.024 (same as the DT) over the past week. When can I put him back into the DT? Should I wait a week or can I transfer him...

    Brooklynella Treatment

    I just lost a Gramma and will lose a Goby by morning since the stores are closed. I still have a clown that I hope I can save. Do you move the fish to a QT or just get them from the DT to do the bath? Can Brooklynella only host on a fish or should I treat my Tank somehow?

    What do you feed your Royal Gramma and are they bottom feeders? I had my Gramma in the QT and she mainly picked the pellets from the bottom. Yesterday I transfered her to the DT and she really hasn't come out to feed. I understand that being in a new invironment she may not come out for a bit...

    ID Please!

    I found a total of four of these so far. They just popped up probably within the past few weeks since I added a Diamond Goby. He probably stirred something up when he started tunneling under all the RL. I also added a few Nassarius Snails also... If I need to take them out what method should I...
