    Can you identify this fish disease?

    Thanks leebca, I do understand that the slower you do everything in a marine aquarium the better, but after looking at my empty tank for a month I could not stop myself. I did however use half of the water from a tank that has been set up for more than a year already, and the rest was RO/DI...

    Can you identify this fish disease?

    Shavo, Just search on google. Here is a link to the pic of the sump http://www.petsolutions.com/Images/200/15919000.jpg I guess what you put in there depends on your imagination.

    Can you identify this fish disease?

    Shavo, I have the All Glass Mega Flow 3 sump. You can see its picture on the web. All I have inside it is a heater, skimmer, some small live rock fragments and a quiet one 3000 pump.

    Can you identify this fish disease?

    No redness and the fish still acts normally. I'll let you know if I observe any changes. The discoloration, or lack of scales, is still visible when light falls on the chromis at a specific angle.

    Can you identify this fish disease?

    The 95 wave with overflow tank has a sump, so I guess it is wet/dry since the water is exposed to air when it is being filtered by a sponge that I clean out every week ( I took out the bioballs from the sump when I bought it). My other tank, a 40 gallon long tank (48in), has been running for one...

    Can you identify this fish disease?

    Shavo, The fins on that specific fish look like the fins on the rest of my chromis in there. I think that the fish was moving or about to move when I took the picture, maybe that is the reason for the fins being closer. Let me clarify for you how long the tank has been working. It was working...

    Can you identify this fish disease?

    My tank has been running for about a month before I added the fish. The first one that died had a lot of scales missing and died the next day after putting it in the tank. The day it died, it stopped eating and looked like he could not catch any air. I did not notice anything wrong with it's...

    Can you identify this fish disease?

    Thanks for the feedback, it seems like most of you think that this is due to water conditions/fish aggression. I checked the PH and salinity: PH: 8.1 Salinity: 1.022 Do any of you think that this looks like a disease that you know of? Chris

    Can you identify this fish disease?

    Thanks! I hope you are right, the chromis in the picture just shows discoloration, it doesn't have any injuries or scale loss.

    Can you identify this fish disease?

    I am in the process of slowly setting up a new tank, I've cycled the tank with live rock, checked the water quality, used RO/DI water, everything seemed right, untill I added five green chromis. I noticed the day I purchased the fish that one of them had missing scales, I assumed that this was...

    Return Plumbing, soft or hard?

    Hi, I am going to purchase a Quiet One 3000 pump which has a 1" threaded male connector and I want to connect it to a 95 gal wave all glass tank. The bulkhead on the tank is 3/4'' barbed connector. What is the most sensible way to connect these two? I want to make it as simple as possible to...

    Placement of Live Rock in Sump

    Hi, I was wondering where should live rock fragments be placed in the sump? Should they be submerged all the time, or should they be placed where bio balls were before I took them out ( water would flow over them, but they would not be submerged all the time, just wet )? Thanks in advance for...
