    Hi, Today, I noticed my male mandarin died. I found him on the bottom of the tank when I woke up. It is a big loose for me, as he was a part of mated pair, which has been spawning several times. On 21.11.2023 I noticed ich breakdown in my tank. I have tried to manage it, and I haven't had any...

    Leaving fish in hyposalinity

    Can leaving fish in hypo salinity (1.009) for more than 30 days be harmful to the fish? I have had baby burrfish in hypo salinity for 30 days.

    EMERGENCY Ich Ich Ich ?&/@!

    My 55 gallon salt water DT has Ich!?! I have lost 3 fish in one week. I am convinced that the only thing that will cure Ich is to treat ALL my fish with copper in a QT. I cannot treat the DT as I have lots of invertebrates that will die from the the copper. I believe I have to starve the...

    Do you QT aquacultured fish?

    Let me preface this by saying typically for all new fish I do a full QT that includes copper and meds such as metroplex in my separate QT. I’ve never purchased a fish before that has been aquacultured, especially by a big name brand and not just my LFS. However, I just purchased a baby Yellow...

    Trying to make my QT tank look nicer, can I add live rock?

    I'm about to set up a 10G QT tank since I'm dealing with ich in my display tank. Since the QT will be near my display, I wanted to set up something that looks nice. So far the only fish I'll be treating is a filefish. I'm also going to be using copper. That being said, can I add a piece of...
