cipro

Just wanted to share my experience so far with a Ritteri Anemone, as I know they're a challenging one to keep. I tried once before about a year ago or so, but I think I was a bit too greedy with what I was doing. I added it to my 40g breeder that I turned it into an AIO by building an overflow...

Hi all. Well, I got it....BJD. I brought in a new Acan Lords a week ago, and everything was looking good, but then a few days later I noticed brown jelly across the back of it., It has also spread to a nearby Euphyllia garden that had 9 heads of frogspawn and 3 purple/green hammers. Anyway, I...

Came home from the long Memorial day weekend to 3 bleached OG bounces. Rest of the shrooms in the tank are okay for now. Decided to try an experiment to see which works better. Luckily I picked up this dosing container from the Coral Farmers Market this weekend which works perfectly for this...

Hello, I purchased a ritteri on Monday. Water was clear tentacles extended and inflated when arrived. Acclimated to temp and salinity. Monday looked great extended and inflated. Tentacles sticky. Tuesday no deflation noted no water change. Tentacles sticky. Wouldn’t eat picked up food...

I'd like to know if doing a Cipro treatment on DT has any effect on fishes and invertebrates? I'm doing Cipro for the first time as i have recently lost a hammer and torch and i suspect its BJD. I have tried iodine dip and coral rx, unfortunately have been unsuccessful. I have decided to do...

I would like to do an in tank treatment of Cipro for my Euphylia. I successfully completed a 6 day cycle of it about a month ago but I have a few torches that appear as if they could benefit from another treatment. Within this time I’ve also developed mild cyano which doesn’t appear to be...

Hello Okay so I bought a mangifica nem about a month ago and when it got here it was mush. So now I have a chance to get a new one but I'm scared that the same thing will happen. I have been reading alot of these threads and all suggest that something goes wrong during shipping. So now I'm...

It is surprisingly frequent the use of antibiotics on DIPs these days. Some users know me as a reefer only, but I am also a doctor. I will not enter the discussion on holobiont and why bacteria are important for the corals… But I would like to create a HUGE ALERT about dipping corals on...

Looking for help as to why I am slowly losing my torches, hammers, and frogspawns. They are also losing color. My tank is 16 months old. It has been doing great. Back in January I lost a torch that just bailed. Ever since then I have been losing a coral about once a week. My phosphates used to...

In Tank Cipro treatment simplified. This is used for brown jelly disease. Can be use for other things like torch bacteria infection.This is how I did it simplify from the Original thread. I have to give credit to the original thread because they help me treat brown-jelly disease in my tank and...

Ciprofloxacin bubble tip Anemone Bacteria Infection Treatment Hello my name is Danh and this is my way of doing cipro treatment for my bubble tipe anemone. I have a csb anemone that had bacteria infection 2 times and I was able to save it both times. I would like to share my treatment here to...

The protocol is as follows: dosing of ciprofloxacin solution to achieve a dosage of .125mg/L (roughly 5mg per 10 gallons) in the system being treated, administered every 12 hours for 5-14 days. I recommend following this protocol in a quarantine system for all new S. haddoni carpet anemones...

I had a branching hammer retract, bleach and was pretty bad off. It looked moments away from death. It didn't extend at all for almost a week, when It extended slightly It was bleached on every head. It had 3 heads. Woke up one day and one head had BJD. In a panic I ordered some cipro online...

Two week ago my LSF received a bleached ritteri that I decided to take with some racked up store credit I had from my constantly splitting BTA's and GSP. After two days in the display and multiple inflation/deflation cycles and a constant puffy and gaping mouth I decided to pull it out and...

My first rainbow BTA started out beautiful, but quickly declined over 2 weeks to the point where it was barely attached to a rock. I decided to treat him with ciprofloxacin according to @OrionN protocol (link below). Cipro treatment for anemones is hotly debated, so I’m going to post it’s...

I'm dealing with a case of BJD and found this gem of an article (below) I want to give it a go but there is no reference to a brand of cipro (Ciprofloxacin)... I was gonna snag a bottle of Thomas Labs but then decided to take it to the forum. Experimenting with in-tank antibiotic treatments...

This is a re-post of what I wrote in ReefCentral on 3/09/2013 Many anemone keepers know, the collection and shipping process from ocean to local fish store (LFS) is a stressful event. Most host anemones do not survive this process without help, especially H. magnifica and S. gigantea. Other...

I have a pair of cc flame tip clones that were delayed in shipping. So instead of arriving Tuesday morning they didn't arrive until Wednesday morning. Upon arrival their water was extremely cloudy and discolored. But as I am not one to give up easily I immediately started to get them fresh...
