Meh.. the rams are acting out of necessity (survival instinct). I wouldn't add the unnecessary stress man. They will fight to the death and the flying fox will probably out last them.

I understand. Just saying the rams will never back down, nor will the doosher. Constant battling can wear..I've seen it with corys. Wait til they drop eggs!

Sodium hypochlorite is bleach.
Usaully when some one recommend SH they mean a stronger version then standard bleach more like pool shock(much stronger then bleach).


NaOCl Wt. %

Common Uses

2% Shock Chlorination of Wells
3-6% Household Disinfectant, Laundering Clothes, Dentistry Root Canal Treatment, Antisepsis of Mammary Glands in Dairy Industry, Disinfectant in Hospitals, Food Processing, Mushroom Production, Hog, Beef, and Poultry Productions, Maple Syrup Production, Fish Processing, etc.
12-16% Disinfectant in Swimming Pools, Water Treatment, Waste Water Treatment

Note: The higher the sodium hypochlorite strength, the faster the decomposition rate becomes. See Decomposition of Sodium Hypochlorite for more information.


Taken from What is Sodium Hypochlorite (Bleach)?

What are we killing or sterilizing??

What are you thinking of using the bleach for?
 
Chihiros Doctor’s Cleaning & Replacement
1) Cleaning Solution is diluted 5CC sodium hypochlorite with 250CC water to soak for 5 hours and use soft sponge wipe the round plastic part, do not wipe the electrode.

You are correct sir!
Came this close to pulling the trigger on one last night!
Where did you order from if you don't mind?
They were on sale(?) on ebay for $69?

You got the plant version correct?

What can we guess is the difference between the shrimp/plant/fish???
It looks like the replacement disc is the same for all......


Should be pretty simple clean as per instructions.

From my understanding the preprogrammed algorithms in the control box vary from setup to setup..

OK not much to update other than the best method I've found for cleaning the diode is a 50/50 mixture of CLR & warm water...
Hopefully the tds meter & ph tester will be here tomorrow (hopefully)...
Ohh almost spaced it,the rams love the doctor...they swoop in and hover in the mist created by the doctor!!! I'll try ato catch em doing it without getting their attention..

Did you find a link on the CLR??

Funny on dem rams!!
When I inject H2O2 my fish swim right into it.

My fish in 120 reef swim into my vodka dosing also!!

Sometimes I wonder if it is all no harm or the fish has no control over its instinct to swim towards the flow regardless of danger:eek:.
I never lost a fish with heavy H2O2 dosing in the past.

I'm interested in the addition of trace elements by the Dr. also besides the reduction inTDS.
Found a TDS link the other day where it said to lower a couple units(18 down to 15).
I sorta see something like this in a breeding application....

Ha, now that's interesting. I was wondering if the fish would "feel" anything from the Dr.'s mist.
