Thank, I woke up this morning and his color is back, I had just done a water change so he was probably freaking out with that. The female is out and about since he left and besides a torn caudal fin, is doing much better since he was removed- she swims with the clownfish and they get along...

I had gotten a pair of banggai cardinals (not mated, I think they are opposite gender?? I asked my FS for that and he grabbed them...I'm not good at sexing cardinals) and everything seemed fine for the first week I got them (March 11th). Every time I turn around now, the male hunts the female...

My Skunk Cleaner Shrimp Pepe had black spot disease randomly two weeks ago. He shed and everything was fine. He JUST shed again and now it looks like there's a flap of it on him? I pulled the whole shed out. Do I move him to QT? Do I remove it from him manually? How do I help him please? Last...

I'm finally able to put in my RO unit in my new place. I am putting in a small RO unit and I am trying to figure out if a 3 stage or a 6 stage filtration RO unit would be more beneficial for my tank. Any ideas? What do you use for RO units? My tank is a 34 gallon saltwater with fish and corals...

Thank you very much for your help; I do 25% water changes once a week, but for the past few weeks I've been doing that plus a 5% change mid week. These two are crazy with the pump, they watch me clean the tank and don't even freak out. It's been stressful for me because I had no idea what was...

Thank you very much, that would make the most sense, since he is acting pretty normal. He even eats a lot; it says on that page that it is contagious....should I move him back to QT? The only issue is he and Nami (the female) get very stressed.

I have thought that it may just be extra skin on him, I don't want to subject him to another treatment if he isn't sick because it's stressful to move from tank to QT and back, PLUS the medicine :ermm:

I had sought help on this before but didn't find any answers; I have a clownfish who has had this bump since I got him in December. I noticed it after I put him in the tank. It hasn't grown or shrunk, nor has anyone else shown any signs of disease. :confused: I asked here but received no...

Did you do your test before or after your pwc? --- Before I did 2 small water changes shortly after moving them as well; I like to keep things clean which is why I'm worried. I had a slight salinity change of 1.027 after my tank top broke (took me a few days to replace) which happened a few...

Photo I did my best but he likes to move around so it is quite difficult to get a clear shot :nono: I did zoom in best I could it's a small bump above his mouth!

I can try, hold on one moment please!

have a new Ocellaris Clownfish (ORA), only had him and his paired female for about two weeks. I didn't notice until I got home he has a bit of raised white on his face. It's been two weeks and it's still there and I want to figure out if I should place him back in the QT and treat him for...

Thank you for your response; I forgot to put my picture on here! Theres only 3 turbo snails, 5 nassarius, one lawnmower blenny and my cleaner shrimp in there! Wanted to wait a bit before introducing clownfish.

I completely agree with this!!

Also, please remember brooklynellosis cannot be treated in reef aquariums because formalin is highly toxic to invertebrates! So be careful when using this treatment for them

That disease is terrible. Both of my clownfish had gotten it after I fed them a new bag of frozen shrimp even though my tank was healthy....within 48 hours they died. Formalin is the preferred medication for treating brooklynellosis, and may be used on the aquarium fish either as a dip or a...

I noticed my Toadstool Leather has pieces of his head just fall off? I'm not sure what's wrong with him, does anyone know? It happened kinda suddenly, though he's been pretty happy.... Tanks been running since January 34Gallon Long Uses: RO Water with Instant Ocean, Ph 8.4, stability Ammo: 0...

Thanks!

Really? :o I just worry about my shrimp is all n.n; I may add in one of the rocks now then to start and just add a little each day. All I have is one large Toadstool and my little cleaner shrimp along with some marine plants and a bunch of rocks (along with a few astarina sea stars here and...

Thanks! Thanks so much!

Cocktail Shrimp You mean a piece of food or an actual live shrimp? I have a skunk cleaner shrimp but my parents got him for me in December and he was $40 so I do not wish to try putting him in there first..... I thought in small tanks there couldn't be any more than one shrimp per tank? Thank...

Hello, I have had a 10 gallon saltwater running for over a year with just a cleaner shrimp and toadstool coral and some rock. I am upgrading to a 35 gallon which was started last night with live sand, a c2 pump, some dry rock (thoroughly washed and dried) and Seachem Prime and heater. My...
