    If only ich was the lotto!

    Thanks! I'm leaning towards a tear down and go fish only an setup a new nano for my reef. Ich is kicked my butt, and it would be so easy to just have fish only in a 75. Then I can treat in tank. I don't know.

    If only ich was the lotto!

    It appears I need more than 6 weeks to keep my reef tank empty, as I finally found my mysterious death and it's ich! Apparently, my long time Chromis haven't been affected. Anyway, going to shut down the DT again this time for 12 weeks. The big question is should I pull my Chromis? Plus, I'm...

    Tangs mysterious death!

    I'm going to go with that. There is a kid and he talks too much and slipped out that Tomini's were 50/50. I think I'm going to work on coral and try again later down the road. Personally, I'm thinking the few fish the better on the reef setup.

    Tangs mysterious death!

    Seriously though. I've heard it all from all tanks have ich keep the fish healthy to crazy food concoctions. Back in my day we waited 1yr before ever putting anything in there more than a damsel. Then, the Damsels came out and the other fish added. It seems to me that even though my tank is...

    Tangs mysterious death!

    I know that's what everyone says about the Chromis, but it was very strange to watch the literally follow the Tangs around at all times. They have established a territory too. I never have had a Tomini, but it was very mellow. I'm tempted to throw a small yellow in there for a month and see...

    Tangs mysterious death!

    Yes on the Nori. I've been very anal with them. I didn't reach in the tank until I felt they were at ease. Both Tangs were eating Mysis and the LFS had them feeding flake. Cycling is another issue. I've never had what I call a cycle. This tank had great tests week one. I don't know if it...

    Tangs mysterious death!

    My last tank was fish only, and it was bigger and I only kept basic Fish and no problems. Is it safe to say that most of the Tangs, Angels, etc are just hit or miss?

    Tangs mysterious death!

    75 gallon with a pro clear RS 200 sump, skimmer. Nrw orbit pro lighting. The tank contents was from my old 100 that was left to fallow about 6 months with about 90 of live rock. I have my LFS check my water once a week and I do it daily. Last problem was a small drop in Ph. Each fish lasted 7...

    No worries! Thanks for the advice.

    Tangs mysterious death!

    That's my thought, but they would hover over the Tangs and follow them everywhere. I'm thinking they caused stress? Could it be the sea salad? On both my tries they both had a clip of seaweed and the seaweed was gone and the Tangs dead. I'm at a loss. Both were happy healthy b4 bed. Do I...

    The Tomini is a Bristle Tooth. I agree it's going to be an all nighter, but that would take getting another Tomini. It's probably best to yank the Chromis. They were hovering and following both Tominis araound. I don't suppose they wanted to be friends.

    Actually, both of these guys were held 30 days and in my QT. I think it's the Chromis. Thanks!

    Tangs mysterious death!

    I've had my tank up for 5 months. It's a 75 gallon....water checked by LFS and myself. Currently stocked with 90lbs of live rock...2 chromis, 2 clowns. I'm trying to get a Tomini Tang. I've tried 2. Both hid for the first 2 days and started coming out and act normal for 4 days...
