    Carlos 60 gallon new tank

    I feel better now, thank you guys for your responses. While cleaning the tank I also found that I have kind of refugium in my overflow box. It was full of hair algae, some bubble algae and even some diatoms. I am amazed that all of that is not growing all over tank. I tested my Nitrates and...

    Carlos 60 gallon new tank

    Help!!! I made a very stupid mistake Today while doing a water change. I did not realize that the new water had a lower salinity and by the time I figured it out, I had the salinity in the main tank down to 1023 (I usually keep it at 1025). The clowns and corals look fine so far, half an hour...

    Firefish is been loosing weight and swimming funny. I've been feeding him 3 times a day and everytime I offer some Cyclops he would eat a little but not much. I wrote to Liveaquaria and this is what they responded. It is certainly possible that your Firefish has a Swim Bladder issue of some...

    I found GVH food soak at a LFS, I will add it to the Cyclops Tomorrow and see if he likes it. How do I know if the fish has bladder/buoyancy problems? I noticed this afternoon while feeding him that he let out some air bubbles from his behind.

    Lee, thanks for the clarification. I have not noticed the fish scratching or rubbing agains anything so far. What kind of vitamins can I add to the Cyclops? Thanks a lot for your help!

    Purple Firefish got ich

    Ouch! Tomorrow it will be 7 days into the treatment. I only see 1 white spot left in its body, other than that it looks fine to me. Yesterday I offered him different foods but he wasn't interested so I went back to Cyclops and he ate a lot of that. So far I have been feeding it once a day...

    It's been doing that for days. Could it be a reaction on the gravity change because of the hyposalinity treatment?

    I have been using a Refractometer ever since I started my tank 7 months ago and I often check it to make sure it is properly calibrated. I am a new in the hobby but believe me, I have been doing my homework for over a year now so I have a pretty good idea of what I am doing. Check out my...

    My first pair of Perculas got Brook, those I got from a local reseller, fortunately I was able to save them with Formalin baths. Later I got a Sunburst Anthias and a Royal Gramma from a LFS, both got ich, Sunburst died in a couple of days and I had to put down the Gramma last week since it...
