    Need to borrow a fish trap

    no, probably won't go to the swap. Don't really have anything to put in. But I live in Antioch .. So don't think we are to far from each other. Could drop it off on my way home from what one day .. or you can stop by and pick it up.

    Wrasse hosting Frogspawn?

    This seems pretty strange to me, but I have a Clown Fairy Wrasse that is hanging out in a frogspawn. Wouldn't he be getting stung?? On a side note .. I just installed T5 lighting on my tank (4 x 54 watt) How high off the water should they hang? I think I have them about 4 inches now. But I seem...

    You and TDS

    300+ .. Sometimes lower if we get a lot of rain. in Antioch Hard water .. and high Calcium, wish I could use tap water in my tank, would never have to worry about calcium!! And no PH problems either as the tap runs around 8. to 8.4

    Algae ID + Help

    No, It isn't red slime algae .. It is some kind of macro algae. Is just a very thick clump, that has a texture just like a sponge, I had a friends tang in my tank for a while, and it ate it, I think that is what got it spread out all over my tank. It was just on one rock, about the size of a...

    I have ICH! Couldn't be happier! Buying more fish tomorrow! Thoughts?

    Ok .. Let me change this a little bit .. sorry First increasing the temperature will NOT "" significantly """ speed up the life cycle of "Marine Ich" This does work "" much faster "" for "Fresh Water Ich" but NOT for Marine Ich.

    I have ICH! Couldn't be happier! Buying more fish tomorrow! Thoughts?

    Matt .. on my Hyposalinity tank I put in a bunch of chaeto, hoping it would use up a lot of the amonia before it had a chance to do any damage. Was worried it wouldn't live in the lower salinity .. But so far it is doing fine. Don't really know how much it is helping, but it is growing. Just...

    I have ICH! Couldn't be happier! Buying more fish tomorrow! Thoughts?

    I was also wondering, with running our tanks fallow for this length of time. I would think the biological filtering capabilities would have run down from being fishless? Would this cause a spike? I guess we could just add back a few fish at a time to make up for this. Or should we be adding...

    I have ICH! Couldn't be happier! Buying more fish tomorrow! Thoughts?

    I am going through the ich problem right now myself .. Couple changes to what has been said so far. First increasing the temperature will NOT speed up the life cycle of "Marine Ich" This does work for "Fresh Water Ich" but NOT for Marine Ich. The tank must be fallow for at least 6 weeks for...
