Can anyone tell me a bit more about this shrimp?

Sorry yes a hospital tank

No sand or rock bare bottom with a few plastic pipes just finished another water change and will check again in the morning do you think I should feed once every other day? And what type of food ? Don't want to spike the nitrate with left overs.

No just heat light and a sponge filter I was told at the lfs that there's no point as the copper will kill all the bacteria anyhow and as long as I kept up with the water changes things should be ok. The fish were in a bad way. Tried to treat them in the DT with reef safe treatment so by the...

A Picasso a clown and a royal grammar really don't want to lose them but keeping them out of the DT for 10 weeks seems like I'm losing the battle. Their hardly eating at all

What's the best way to keep ammonia leaves down in my quarantine tank? Have been doing regular water changes with no reduction have put in some microorganism today but don't think it will help much as I'm dosing with copper to cure the dreaded ich. Any advice please.

I'm on the 4th day of copper treatment so fingers crossed

There are plenty of fish an Oscar will live with as long as the tank is big enough a large parrot ,silver dollers another Oscar or even a big angle I've got a angle in with mine and they get on great not a single scrap. Every fish is different

My Oscar does the same from time to time I think it's just getting rid of natural aggression feed him lots of live food big river shrimp even dare I say the odd goldfish.

Ps thanks melous the info was very helpful

Think I will do the same unfortunately I've lost my orange spotted goby and mt dwarf angle :-( the hippo tangs not looking good either. There not eating well either do you think trying some live food might help?

Have had an out break of ich so have quarantined fish so I can treat with copper. But how long should I leave the fish out of the DT to make sure there is no parasites in the DT water some say 2weeks others up to 8 and can I test the water to make sure the ich is gone?

I did wonder thanks

Can you use garden snail shells if cleaned as new homes for hermit crabs?

Anybody know a way to catch some cardinals I have in my tank without having to upset every piece of rock and coral. They came with the tank when I brought it but really don't like them too tropical looking for me and their taking up precious room. My local FS said they will take them but...

I was told that my clown would never host a carrabian anemone because the sting was to much for him. But he loves it and the anemone seems fine with it too.

I probably am over feeding a bit the tank is fully cycled and been running for 18mts it was moved about 3 mts ago and went through a small cycle lots of red slime alge but that's almost all gone now and touch wood have lost no fish. Will try feeding less thanks.

It's 120lt +about 40lt sump I'm new to marine keeping but the water all tests fine for nitrate nitrite the ammonia is showing .25 ppm and ph is fine how to I test for dittritus? Just seems a lot of small particles have read a lot on line and hopefully it will all settle down in a few days thanks...

Have just introduced a orange spotted goby he's doing a great job but also making the water very messy! I've done 2 water changes since I introduced him and all tests reading good will he clam down or will he make my water messy forever. I'm running a 150lt nek5 skimmer pellet reactor and live...
