    powder brown&yellow-eye tangs-white spots

    Add fresh garlic juice to your food and it will help your fish fight off the ich. The garlic will enhibate the ich's ability to attach itself to the fish causing it to fall to the bottom and die faster. Good luck.

    tang question

    The sailfin would be fine in the 125 as long as it in not too large. You should be able to keep both of those fish in the 125, they are different shapes and will establish their own areas. Just watch them and be sure to feed them well. Good luck.

    Will This Do?

    Watts per gallon doesn't mean anything if you are serious about your corals. You want to focus on par if you really want your corals to be healthy and grow well. On a 75 gallon softy tank, you could get away with CF lighting. That is a tank of mushrooms and some zoanthids, maybe a leather. A 75...

    Super skimmer 65

    You can make one at home out of a film canaster, you just use floss in them as a silencer. You can also use cotton (needs replaced very often), biobale or simply a piece of a green scrub pad rolled up in there. I have use an old filter sock cut up and loosely stuffed inside, worked great.
