Hi John, I was doing he water change. Tanks are ok. I got BJD maybe 2 weeks before Joe came to Dubai. Lost 1 torch, 1 frogspawn and 1 hammer (20 heads) this one bothered me but hopefully it stopped after. I tried to frag asap but 2 days later they went out. I don't have Cipro here so... I have a bit of algae problem on the back wall and a bit of cyano on the small tank (no skimmer no wave maker) and I cannot put my hand as one clown is very mean so I add a dotty back lol . Here pics before and after water change this morning.

Dang Remi, BJD sucks. About 2 1/2 years ago it wiped out all of mine. Fortunately I gave or sold very cheap frags with the stipulation if anything happened to my colony I could get back a frag for free or the same price. I got all back except for one hammer that I hadn’t fragged. I bought all the ingredients for the KFC dip to keep on hand. Since you can’t get Cipro perhaps you could get the rest of the ingredients to keep on hand.
 
Been dealing with something similar the last 3 days, plus high fever, But I went to work anyway because I think if I lie down in bed it's worse.
Get well Luis!

Luckily no fever here, just a cough, sore throat, and exhausted. A week and a half that feels like a lifetime...
