well, since i posted last, i've lost every fish in my tank except 2 clownfish and hippo tang <img src="graemlins//dead.gif" border="0" alt="[dead]" /> (i also have a royal gramma and bicolor blenny missing). i know it was ich or marine velvet - they were all doing great, water was perfect, no problems ever, unil i ordered from the crappiest saltwater website in the world(not swf!) i've put the remaining fish into a tank with a copper treatment after the rest died, and they are doing really well. my question is, how do i start over? I AM NOT GIVING UP! <img src="graemlins//bah.gif" border="0" alt="[bah]" /> i still have anemones, a snowflake eel, and tons of inverts in my tank - also 75 lbs. of lr and ls. does this mean the parasite will stay in the tank, even without fish in it? i know i can't treat it with them in there(don't want to use chemicals anyway), but i don't want to take them out either. as far as the tank they are in right now, i wanted to use it for corals and seahorses, but i put copper in it. do i have to empty it and start over(i mean lr and everything)? i am anxious to get my tanks back - this has sucked royally! 
btw, i's cool there are so many people from mn on here - it would be cool to compare tanks(although obviously not right now!! ) i did not realize that fish and friends had swf - it's only a few minutes from my house! anyhow, i will appreciate any (good) advice - thanks!
