nice.. whos is that?

 

[devildog01]

Its on the big auction site.

 

[treybomb]

okay well i cant get a non-blurry shot
it looks like smal white pimples/zits

 

[treybomb]

should i net them and then take a pic? and see if that helps or too much stress on them>??

 

[devildog01]

even a crappy-in fact even the worlds crappiest pic would help...Does it look like the size of salt, or smaller, or bigger? Also, where is it on the fish...spreadout or mostly on the fins or what?

 

[treybomb]

no when i zoom in and take all you see is a big blurry orange blob
yeah aboutthe size of salt ... its only in the section inbetween the stripes section right behind the head stripe section (confusing)

 

[devildog01]

Sounds like ich. Do you have a little 10 gallon or something u can quick set up to do a q-tank?

 

[devildog01]

Actually if there is only a few spots, go to your LFS tomorrow and pick up a cleaner shrimp. That'll take care if it!! They work like a charm!!

 

[treybomb]

nope... can i treat the whole tank?? i have a little 2 gallon(too small)
thats it..... : (

okay !! yeah hopefully that will work....tomorrows halloween..................................................................................
well i guess ill just go right when i get home

 

[treybomb]

any certain type of cleaner shrimp?

 

[devildog01]

hmm...there is NO way for you to get to your LFS tomorrow? I think a cleaner shrimp would be your best bet, or you can go to ***** or whatever and buy a 10 gallon and a hang on filter and a cheap heater-its up to you, oh and if you do that you'll need medication. I would just go and spend 20 bucks on a shrimp rather than 40 on all that other crap.

 

[treybomb]

no i meant ill go to the lfs right when i get home... what else should i buy there besides the cleaner shrimp?? should i get my clean up crew while im there?

Cleaner shrimp...just a regular one. They do the best job. You can get a cleanup crew, but they cleaner shrimp is a must. I suppose if you have the money you might as well get a clean up crew while your there, and yes you can net the fish to take a pic... DO NOT get any fish while your there...if this is ich you dont want anything else getting it...but if they have any mushrooms or anything I listed before you could get with your lights, then get those too if u want.

wouldnt that be a bit of a bioload shock?? cleaner shrimp, cleanup crew, and mushrooms and zoos?

nah...a cleaner shrimp and a cleanup crew only add a TINY MICROSCOPIC bit to it, and corals and stuff dont add virtually any bioload.

 

[treybomb]

okay... can cleanup crew and corals die from ich?

 

[treybomb]

my lfs sells cleaner shrimp for 15$$ im gonna get it no matter what but is that a good price?

 

[devildog01]

nope, they cant even get it!
