Yes everything but the inverts

Well all of my fish have died even though I was trying to treat the problem so now what do I do to get rid of this before I put any other fish in the tank

Just put a new sailfin tang into my tank and he has broken it out with ick I was wanting to know if anyone had any suggestions that would help me out try to get through this cause it is very frustrating thanks any help needed have had the tank up and running for 6 months

My nitrites are off the chart but everything else is normal what should i do to make the nitrites level come down

I just started a new tank about a week and a half ago and put some rocks that were a little bit live and also 17 pounds of rock that was really live with purple i have a can filter 750 powerhead 45 gallon tank i was looking today and some of the rock looks black is there any suggestions or help...

I checked the ammonia today and it is at 1.0 ppm wondering if i should take the shrimp out and i also have live sand and live rock in there to. It is a 45 gallon tank with can filter.

Would that be till all the ammonia is fully gone cause i was told to take it out when the ammonia hits 5 ppm

How long should i leave the shrimp in the tank

Ok i just went and got a pretty big shrimp and threw it in the tank so here we go i guess its just a waiting game now any other suggestions for me i appreciate all your help

I was also going to say i probably wont do corals just live rock

For filtration i have the marineland 360 canister with filter pad ceramic rings boi balls carbon then sponge and since i have that little bit of sort of live rock i can still put the shrimp in there without hurting anything and also do you test until the ammonia is completly gone then it means...
