I'm in sending info

if you saw cloudy eye that would indicated a bacterial infection and you would of needed to treat for bacteria as well. sorry for your loss. I spoke to the manufacturer before using the product and they were very helpful.

I think I am dealing with tail end of a ich epidemic. I bought a maroon clown that I though was fine, but the next day he was completely covered and had infected my scopas tang. funny thing through all this my pair of fire fish were completely fine. I bought stop parasite and it seems to have...

how big of a water change should I do and how often. we did are first water change today of 50% and didn't budge the reading. the ph reading was 8 also, I use strictly store bought ro/di until I can by an ro/di system for myself for the saltwater. I also tested my tap water just now and...

I have city water I tested the tap water a number of times including hr ago and it reads 0 every time. I have been getting consistent readings of 8+ for atleast 2 months. I only have the high ph test so I don't think that will work on my water correct? I do have a betta, 5 gopies, 2 tetra and 1...

should I do another water change?

api bottles.

the thing that was confusing me is that we had the tank for over 3 months and we still had a high ammonia level and 0 nitrites and 0 nitrates

Okay so here is the back story. I setup a 20 gallon fresh about 4 months ago. The ammonia for 3 of those months has stayed at 4 or greater. I was told that the tank needed to cycle and leave it alone. Today I purchased a 36 gallon tank that I cleaned with vinegar and water. I put 10 gallons of...

he is in a tank with 3 orange guppys, 2 fancy guppy tails, 2 red finned tetras, 1 molly, and a betta. They are in a 30 gallon with logs, plants, and other decor.

I have a red finned tetra that is missing an eye. I know he had it yesterday and now today it is gone. Is he going to be okay? Should I quarantine the fish?

I have been taking ammonia reading every day since the first fish died. and the ammonia has been reading 0. I did have a low nitrate reading of 5 or 10, but after a water change that became o also. I am watching my fish like a hawk and hopefully this passes. is there anything I can do to...

I tried to get a picture of him last night but I just couldn't get a good one. He is a little lethargic; however, he seems to be a little better. I will keep observing him and if I can snap a pic I will.

non- of my invertebrates were effected. Is there anything I can do help my live stock?

don't have a uv sterilizer. would feeding garlic soaked food help? any other remedies? he made it through the night so will see what happens.

the fire fish had a red spot along his kill when he died. when I can home to see the clown dead over 2 days later he was pail white with no red on him. the wrasse is still alive and rather lethargic. when I woke up with morning he was leaning against the front glass. not like him at all. is...

everything was going great until I the fire fish. besides a 10% water change I did about 3 weeks ago and toping off with ro/di and feeding with mysis shrimp and flake that all I have been doing.

I did the 25% water change. the wrasse is propping himself against a rock to hold him self upright. the fire fish seem fine

background 55g tank ground started tank about 2 months ago. used cured live rock and cycled tank in about 2 weeks. after perimeters were constant for about a week I added a solor fairy wrasse and ocellaris clown. they were doing good for about a month so I figured I would be good to add some...

rimless are so nice. it just sucks when you loss a fish. they need to invent an invisible force field that keeps fish from jumping out. lol

I think for a 20g-29 if you got like an ac110 you probably could do just a hob filter only, but you would want at least some live rock like 10lbs min for some bio filtration. also, their is a reason he keeps devil fish in there. they don't die. lol

you need to keep in mind that nems are not needed for clowns in saltwater tank and it is hit and miss that a clown will even host. they will just as likely host frogspawn, hammer coral, or any other coral that looks similar to a nem. It is hit or miss for hosting. It can even stress out the...

I thought safe start was for fresh water only. I know dr times makes 2 products 1 for fresh and for salt.

you can try a small frag just put it way up top in your tank.

just one quick word of caution about the ebay powerheads. make sure you watch out for stray voltage leaking into your tank. I have read many complaints of this accruing both from reviews as well as comments on the sellers ebay accounts. I'm not saying they won't work just watch out for that...
