    Quarantining fish from the beach...questions...

    I see...I'm new to this quarantining thing, I used to just throw them inside before...;) So if I catch a fish with ich, if it gets clean water, it will be able to get rid of the ich and not spread it to the other fish in the tank? Thanks, Jon

    Quarantining fish from the beach...questions...

    well, it's too late to not buy the chemicals as I already have them...and I figure it can't hurt to "help them out"...my main concern is if I can run both chemicals at the same time...the instructions on either don't mention that it would be bad to mix them with other chemicals, but I'm not sure...

    Quarantining fish from the beach...questions...

    Thanks for the concern guys, but what I'm doing is 100% legal...I also have the aquarium license for home use(although I'm not using netting to catch these guys). I also make sure the fish I'm catching are not under closure or are not smaller than legal size...trust me, I've done my research on...

    Quarantining fish from the beach...questions...

    Hi guys, I've decided it would be cheaper and much more fun to catch my fish for my tank...I'm in Hawaii, so there is quite a selection to choose from... That being said, now that my tank is running, I want to quarantine any new fish coming into the tank...I'd hate to introduce something bad...

    Will a florescent light allow algae/live rock to grow?

    Hi guys, I bought a hood for my saltwater tank and it came with a florescent bulb...will this kinda light/bulb allow plants to grow? I was under the impression that I needed special UV lights to do this?

    Over flow box question...easy, I promise..;)

    Hi guys, As I mentioned in a thread below, I was thinking about getting a wet/dry filter...my problem is that my tank is made of plexi(w/black back) and has some plexi on the top...I have a small rectangular opening for a filter/s...It's about...1' or so by 3"? As far as I can tell, almost...

    Ok...I feel pretty stupid asking this, but I can't figure it

    Hara, which side of the J tube is below the water? Also, thanks for the help guys...I think maybe I'll just buy one and assume this works..;)

    chase, thanks for the reply. I guess I should be more clear...the tank to sump is done by gravity, not suction. I've done this in the past when draining my tank or doing some cleaning, etc...however, I noticed that when I got near the bottom of the tank(almost no water left), the hose would...

    Ok...I feel pretty stupid asking this, but I can't figure it

    Hey guys, I was thinking about getting a wet/dry filter with a sump under my tank. I've looked online, but I still don't think I've found a satisfactory answer that answers my question... I understand that the water intake from tank to sump is done with suction...no problem there...
