my buddy has been battling ick for the past couple of months. this is his koran. i went to his house and took some pics. i know that it is not ich, i have seen ich(too many times) and know what that is. i think it may be a fungal infection. it looks to be mainly on his lower fins. there is some...

i have noticed the "dark" areas of my tank recieve alot of these. the underside of LR usually. TIA. Jon

yes we are talking about the QT. the trigger is roughly 5 in long. there is no left over food when the trigger is done eating. do you think that i should remove the damsels? i just did a 10 gal water change tonight. hopefully that will help a little bit. thanks for all your guys help. keep the...

sorry...haven't updated my sig. i now have a 125 FO tank that the clown trigger will be going into. the 55 is now my reef tank. thanks for the concern though!! Maybe i should take the damsels and the chromis out and return them to the fish store?!?!

Fellow Toledoan!! I too had a problem with my pH, so i went to the lfs and he told me the same thing about the aragamilk. just wondering what your lfs is located, being that we are both from toledo! Jon (and we both have the same first name!!)

hey thanks for the heads up squishyfish....you just saved me alot of money!! well the thought was cool anyway!

i have 2 blacklights that i got from the shed that would look way cool on the top of my 55 gal. i was just wondering if that light along with my pc lights (2 10K and 2 Actnic) would help anything or would the lights not even contribute to the well being of the tank? and does anyone know what the...

i notice that you guys take AWESOME pics of your tanks... i have tried many time to take pictures with the digicam. i have never once been able to get the quality and clarity of some of the ones on this site. my question is: what cameras does everyone use? i have a Canon PowerShot S200. is this...
