All my fellas ️ have ich now and I gotta nab them out and start treating them.
2 ocelaris
Scopas
Desjardini
Blue hippo
Diamond goby
Clown goby
Molly miller blenny
Long nose hawkfish
I have 2 20 gallon long tanks and a 15 gallon tank that I’ll probably use because I don’t want any tang aggression to occur. How would I go about setting this up? This was my potential plan but I know there’s something wrong with it I just don’t know what. All my tangs are also about the size of a dollar coin and the blue hippo is the size of a quarter.
1. Set up all 3 tanks with a heater, air stone, hob filter, ammonia badge, and lid.
2. Add in bio media from existing DT? I have bags of seachem matrix in there, no sponges.
3. Transfer one tang per tank, one goby per tank, and the rest go in the one with the smallest fish.
Tank 1 (20 gal): 2 ocelaris, diamond goby, blue hippo
Tank 2 (20 gal): desjardini, clown goby, hawkfish
Tank 3 (15 gal): scopas and molly miller blenny
I could also put the scopas and blue hippo together and the blenny in tank 2, they all didn’t really have any aggression, mostly just worried the two zebrasomas in one tank will turn into 1 or no zebrasomas lol.
4. Dose copper power once since it says it doesn’t precipitate. Do water change weekly 50% and re dose copper power?
Do I just keep dosing copper power until the 76 days of fishless DT are over? Should I still feed my DT some food so the corals and shrimps can continue with their parameters? Should I also shorten the time I leave the Refugium light on?
Thank you and all help is appreciated.
