First thing what size tank do you have and how long has been up and running, what fish are already in it?

That's a nice house warming gift when will it be delivered

I'm feeling a lot more confident about this now. I think I'm gonna try to upgrade it just sounds easier and I'd love to get a bigger tank.

If I can find a good deal on a tank I'll upgrade. I don't think I can keep my fish out of the for a month I have to many fish it would be to expensive and space consuming to buy holding tanks and other equipment to keep them alive. So would it be possible to move the tank and get the back in it...

I'm gonna be moving in a month or two and I'm just curious to know if anyone has any tips or advice on how to move a tank without it resulting in a crash. My other thought was maybe use this opportunity to upgrade to either a bigger tank. So any thoughts or opinions would be very helpful.

Try dosing prazi

It looks like he has black ich to me try dosing prazi. The thing on his side looks like a scratch wound but I'm not sure.

Actually triggers, puffers and some large angels are known to pick at sharks and rays and possibly kill them. Not every shark is an apex predator cat sharks are not aggressive and neither are rays. When choosing tank mates for such animals your concern isn't about the shark or Ray attacking...

A rectangle isn't necessarily bad it's really only bad for the open water sharks like black tips it will be fine for these. I would say no if it's a venomous one since all it would take is your shark or Ray swimming over it once for them to die.

A coral cat(Atelomycterus marmoratus) or a marbled cat shark( atelomycterus macleayi) would be better since they stay small by shark standards anyways at around 2' for rays a haller's stingray (urobatis halleri) is a good Ray that again stays small compared to others at around 12" disc size. A...

Good to hear

Update? How's the guy doing?

I wouldn't consider them harsh chemicals hydrogen peroxide will completely remove itself in 48 hours and bleach can be removed very easily with a dechlorinator and if he's gonna restart the tank I think this might be an easier way

What about hydrogen peroxide or bleach? You could dump some of either in and it will kill the algae and possibly the apsatia.

my new picasso trigger

Damsels are very aggressive little fish I would recommend returning them since they will attack each other and anything else you put in the tank. Also there are much better ways of cycling your tank for example you can feed the tank like you have a fish or you can take a piece of shrimp and...

But a uv isn't gonna keep your fish from getting infested parasites

I've never used one and haven't had a bacterial outbreak so I just don't see a need for it. As far as parasites go a uv won't cure the fish it will simply cut down on the parasites numbers and a qt will solve the issue of needing one for parasites. So again just don't see a need for one.

I font know much about sumps or in sump equipment since I don't have one but I can tell you the uv will be a waste of money. I'm also looking forward to updates.

What about one of the Genicanthus angels?
