my fish that were left have been in the qt for the same period as the dt has been running without fish. going on 3 months. I have also treated them with copper as well and they seem to be doing fine. I have clear air bubbles all over the tank. They just started showing up. I'm assuming...

Well, I report almost 3 months ago that I had ich and I took the advice to remove the fish left and let the tank sit. Well I hope I'm ready to try a fish again. I'm very reluctant. My 2 fish are in the qt and have been treated and are doing well and staring at the bigger tank wondering when...

where can I see a picture of the different pods because I think I have a similar issue that this thread started with but I don't know what I'm looking at. thanks

then I think what I am seeing on the glass is something else then. Someone mentioned copapod??? Does anyone know what they look like?

I posted a couple of weeks ago about having to start my 90 gal over again because of the presence of ich. All my recently purchased fish have died and am left with most of the originals that went through the cycling. I'm setting up other smaller tanks so I can dismantle and start over. My...

Is there a general rule of thumb for the amount of lighting an acquarium should have? I have a 90 gal reef tank.

I'm getting ready to remove my fish and quarantine them for ich and letting my dt sit for the recommended time frame. I have been reading the articles on the process but wasn't exactly sure what to do with the LR, corals, and inverts. If I understand correctly its the fish that are the host...

Yes, he/she only lasted a couple of weeks unfortunately. It was beautiful. Is there any tricks to keeping them that you know of?

Just saw the really nice picture of the cleaner wrasse. I have had two at different times and can't keep them alive. They do really well for a couple of weeks and then die. Whats up? My water params are fine and everyone else is good. Any thoughts?

I have a 90 gal. And I realized yesterday that my anemone is a florida condy, not the sebae they called it at the store. I'm finding I need to do more and more research on my own to educate myself than relay on the store. They are costing me money....I did enjoy watching the tomato in the...

Based on the colorations I do have the little False Nemo :). Thank you both for all the information on who goes where. Now since of have the False Nemo can I have another type of clown that will go to my Sebae without a problem other than the tomato that I had?

Are there particular clowns that will host particular nems? I had a tomato clown and he/she really took to the nem that I had. It became to aggressive with my other fish and I had to remove it. I got a little percula that is small and cute but has shown no interest at all for the nem that I have.

So Ca and Mg are then the most important things to test for once the 4 regular ones are stable, right? Then how about any supplements to add? I have heard of strontium and iodine must be added...Is this true. If so are these things that need to be tested first or added on some frequency.

I'm newish still and have a couple of corals now. What all do I need to test for , besides amnomia, ph, nitrites, nitrates, calcium....and specific supplements that I need to add to make sure they continue to do well. Also some advice on what people are feeding and having good success with.

This was all alot to digest given I'm new to all this and only 3 months into with my 90g tank. Im really trying to grasp how to hospitalize all my fish for 6+ weeks when my hospital tank is only 10g and its use I thought was to only be occasional. I don't have the means to quarantine all of...

unfortunately most have at least ended up with it and I have used different stores for purchase. The ones that I have qt'ed have lasted longer at this point. However a tomato clown I just bought 3 days ago and did not qt is showing signs of those little spots.......... :)
