There's a metal channel under the leg that slides into a groove on the light. You can screw it down once you slide it into position

Let me know if he flakes!

I don't have that light but I do have a 72" odyssea light that had the same thing. And it took me a minute to figure out that it was a peice of vinyl. I took mine off and the light looks great.

Did the sale go through?

Not that I can think of, My honest opinion is that this all started when i bought a raccoon butterfly. He was the first to go, i think whatever it was that fish had it and brought it into my system. I always scoffed at the idea of quarantining fish for a while, if my LFS does it before they...

here is a pic of the pearlscale. It isnt as bad as it was on the rest of the fish before they died, hopefully i got it out quick enough. I bought instant ocean lifeguard, as it said it helps with fungal and bacterial problems, So i put that in the QT. I'm just impressed that its still alive, by...

alright, well i got all my fish into my q tank. i had to destroy my big tank to catch them all but i got em. The pearl scale is still alive this morning! If it makes it until tomorrow, something I have done has worked on some level.

okay one more question. is there a specific type of medicine i should get? my LFS is closed on Tuesdays....(dumb i know) So I'm basically held up to Petsmart and or Petco. everything that I've read says treat with copper sulfate or antibiotics. I'm pretty sure i"ve seen an anti fungus copper...

okay so i buy a QT tank, going to throw in some PVC for them to hide, should i just use the water from my tank since im going to treat it? and ive read that my main tank should be fishless for up to 8 weeks... Can i leave my fish in QT for that long?

Well i saw my pearlscale swimming around this morning before i left for work, the spot has gotten bigger, if its still alive when i get home, i should be able to finally get a pic of it. the closest thing i can find is cotton wool disease. but Im not sure if thats what it actually is. ill be...

i have a 30 gallon biocube that i set up this morning, so its not cycled. i have a peice of PVC in the tank, they can all fit, i dont know how long they will be happy in there. Should i just put them all in even if it hasnt cycled? from what ive read and seen, i dont think that its velvet. it...

okay, so should i move all my fish out into a qt tank? if so should i still use the water from the tank? by no fish for 6 to 8 weeks do you mean that all i need to do is leave my big tank without fish for that long and it will eventually die off? or do i just take the one that looks sick out...

no one else has any ideas?

Hey all, ive got something going on in my tank. Over the last 4 days i have had 4 fish die. It only gets one at a time, and it starts with a white blotch on the head of my fish, then it gets worse like the flesh is decaying. its killed 3 lyretails, and a raccoon butterfly. Everyone looks fine...

Nice! Did you make that up or buy it?
