Yes you are correct, it is based on people experience and I do appreciate that, you can not argue a personal experience unless the person is really lying. I guess when one person tells you to do something from their experience then the next person who helps you asks what you did and they don't...

This is the problem I have learning about all this as a beginner. I am not saying either one of you are incorrect (obviously I don't know either way 100%) but all the research you do to try and learn about this always conflicts with someone else's opinion and you can never know what the actual...

Okay....I bought that UV after your advice on my fresh water tank. I hope it starts clearing up soon. Your right the water change made it worse. The ammonia problem is only in the QT. Does UV not kill parasites??

I regret to have to tell you that I went to bed and tang was still swimming, woke up this morning and he was dead. My fox face and sand goby are the only ones left look to be doing fine, fox face just looks a little stressed and hides but no signs of disease. I would really still like to know...

@Innovator, what is your thoughts on what my fish is suffering from?? ICH? ammonia poison/burn? flex?

Yes, I did know that but I was under the impression the it boost the immune system to kick it themselves, a lot of positive on that method I read. Well, that maybe but then why the heck can they sell that with that claim of its purpose?? THANKS for the moral support....... Sorry, I wasn't...

Does high ammonia eat away at the fins like that too??

Ya, I have researched and found mixed reviews on this Kick-ich med. Some say it works others say not. There is more positve then negative. The most people that have negative are ones that had some sensative corals and they died but I just have live rock right now. I really dont think I have...

Also, now that I have taken them back out of the QT and back into the main tank & have been treating with the kick-ich, my levels are all good, no high ammonia nor nitrate. Yellow tangs skin seems to get worse but his eyes are better, is that a good sign?? I figure if it is a type of burn that...

Good research thank you!! The reason I believe it has to be ammonia poison is because both the Yellow tang and the clown were pretty much perfectly fine (besides a few spots of ich starting) until I put the in the QT. 24hours later you see the results of my yellow and my clown is dead.

Okay, after adding a blue hippo 2 weeks ago, I believe I encountered ich on him. I tried treating with water changes and garlic but it got worst and spread to my clown and yellow. I set up a 25g quarantine tank and after much research decided I would treat in there with a product I had...

Thank you, I plan on getting a larger tank very soon at least a 100 gallon-200. I am just looking for a good deal on a nice tank. I missed one not to long ago which I kick myself in the butt. The tang and fox face do get along quite well, the research I did and was confirmed by my lfs was...

I have 90 gallon tank with Africans. Its been good until a month ago I did a larger water change due to it looking brownish. All levels are fine but since that water change it went from clear to cloudy, to green and I have not been able to get rid of the green. I have tried frequent water...

I have slowly started a 55 gallon SWT since Oct to the best of my reasearch and advice from LFS (I know conflict of interest)...anyway, I have 60-70lbs live rock no reef tank and I have used my well water with PH at about 8.4. I have slowly introduced the following: 1 yellow tang, 1 nemo clown...
