    Carlos 60 gallon new tank

    I'm thinking on adding more flow to my tank and I just saw these new Hydor Kolaria pumps online. Right now I have my return pump which is close to 600gph and 2 maxijets 900. Which ones to do you think I should get?

    HELP!!! Problems with my new True Perculas

    Thanks for your response Lee. I decided to go ahead and do 5 baths just to be sure. Today I gave their the fourth one. I can't believe how different they look now; they are so active swimming all over the QT, still eating well (he still eats more than she does but I guess they are just...

    HELP!!! Problems with my new True Perculas

    The instructions suggested 3 to 5 baths. I have already giving them 3 and the spots are not spreading anymore but the skin where they used to be still looks funky. As I mentioned before they are very active and eating well. No more Formalin baths then?

    HELP!!! Problems with my new True Perculas

    The clowns are looking way better and eating well. I was just wondering if I should continue with the Formalin baths?

    HELP!!! Problems with my new True Perculas

    I gave them their third Formalin bath Tonight. They really seem to be getting better, they look a lot more active and both are eating now. The female is kind of picky about food and she only eats small pieces, the male will it whatever I offer. The spots in the skin went away but they left...

    Carlos 60 gallon new tank

    As I mentioned recently the hair algae in the tank is pretty much all gone and now the crabs and snails are turning against each other so I was wondering what can I find them with?

    HELP!!! Problems with my new True Perculas

    Good news, the female ate this morning, not a lot but she ate so I expect her to start eating normally soon. Today I will give them their third Formalin bath and I pick up the frozen Anti-Parasite Medicated Fish Food.

    HELP!!! Problems with my new True Perculas

    BTTRFLYGRL, I got the Cyclopeeze and the male went nuts, he loved it but she did not eat it at all. Lee, the problem is that she is still not eating. My LFS can get me the Anti-Parasite Medicated Fish Food as well as the Gel-Tek Ultra Cure PX but I think I should try something a treatment for...

    Carlos 60 gallon new tank

    I took a picture of my tank last night. The hair algae finally went away. Coraline is growing like crazy all over the rock. Also the cleaning crew have done a great job eating the algae. Actually I am planing on taking out a few of the Emerald crabs as well as the Sally Lightfood that I thought...

    HELP!!! Problems with my new True Perculas

    Lee, I called all of my LFS and none of them had the Praziquantel. Would the Prazipro that BTTRFLYGRL suggested work?

    HELP!!! Problems with my new True Perculas

    Lee thanks a lot for your compliments. Is there any particular medication that you would suggest so that I get the right thing the first time around. I will start asap.

    HELP!!! Problems with my new True Perculas

    The male is definitely eating a lot since Yesterday but the female is more shy and does not seem to be interested in the food but as I mentioned before I have seen her with long strings of what it looks to be poo. Kind of gritty, white but long. I will try to take a picture of it Tonight. Where...

    HELP!!! Problems with my new True Perculas

    Today I gave them the second Formalin bath. They are looking a little bit better and probably more active. The white spots are now orange and they are not spreading anymore. My LFS could not get the Cyclopeeze for me so tonight I decided to try the frozen Formula 1 again but without the garlic...

    Carlos 60 gallon new tank

    Today I found my Sally Lightfoot Crab dead on the sand. It looks like something attacked him because it was a mess. I saw him last night and he looked fine. The only think that I have in the tank that could probably bother him would be the Coral Banded Shrimp but he is smaller and I've never...

    HELP!!! Problems with my new True Perculas

    I checked them out this afternoon now the female is really showing signs of Brook like the ones in the pictures. I did the first bath this afternoon. At the begining the male started showing signs of stress and was bothering the female but after a few minutes they both calmed down. Next time I...
