Previously on day 3 added 45ml of excel not 7ml Day 4 added 20 ml no new growth of staghorn is noticeable. How long should I keep overdosing? Or from now on just 5ml per 40 gal? -Drew

Thank you both for your responses! I'm on the lookout for not so common species so the pet stores will buy from me. That I think is going to be my biggest issue! What about shipping live fish.. I understand that overnighting something is never cheap but, should shipping be always avoided? -Drew
