    My Royal Flasher Wrasse finally died tonight :(

    My Royal flasher Wrasse died tonight in the QT, not sure what might have caused it. I have a melanurus wrasse and a Biota yellow tang in the QT currently. Not sure how to proceed. There's no mark on its body (looking for signs of ich, velvet or uronima). But when I move the body it's looks like...

    Cupramine and Prazipro

    My fish just completed a 30 day long treatment of Cupramine at 0.5ppm last week. I have added Cuprisorb and Carbon in the tank to try to absorb as much copper as possible. I have also been doing more frequent water changes. The quarantine tank is 150 gallons so I am not able to do an extremely...

    Quarantine with European available medications

    Hello, I’ve recently bought a midas blenny, a gramma loreto, a Banggai cardinalfish and a clown goby. Fishes have been doing well for about 3/4 weeks until now, and I can’t see any sign of disease so far. Apart from the clown goby, which likely suffered a prolonged shipment time and perished...

    Quarantine tank questions

    I recently upgraded from a 20 gallon IM nuvo to a 65 gallon JBJ AIO. I’ve moved the majority of live stock to the 65 gallon DT and I eventually want to use the old 20 gallon tank for a quarantine tank. I’ve found the humble fish articles, but it covers setting up a QT from scratch. I’m wondering...
