    Bleaching the tank

    The guy was saying that he hasn't changed the water for two years! Poor yellow tang that was leaving there! But he looked fat and healthy!!

    Bleaching the tank

    Thank you very much. So then will bleach kills everything? Then in will not be live rock anymore? Can it help with cycling after so much cleaning?

    Bleaching the tank

    Thank you guys! I will do that. My follow up question is this: I happened to get more than 100 pound of live rock for free tonight but they are super black and full if algae as see in this picture. What is the easiest way to clean? It is too much that I don't know if I am that patient to brush...

    Bleaching the tank

    That looks like a very easy and cheap solution! Anyone against that? Will it take care of all kind of parasite?

    Bleaching the tank

    In this Hobby nothing is easy! I was thinking bleach should be super easy but now that i read your commands looks too much work! Maybe I reconsider the 3 months fishless too ;)

    Bleaching the tank

    Oh! in this case things might go wrong and tank falls apart, lol I do not want 120 gallons of mixed bleach water on my floor for sure! I think you guys are right! Empty/dry and then spray bleach should be better! Should I just get rid of sand and buy new? But if I spay bleach how many times...

    Bleaching the tank

    Thank you very much for the advise. Well tank is 125 gallons(6 feet) and no way I can move it. I was just thinking of mixing the water/bleach with 1/3 ratio and keep in running? will it work?

    Bleaching the tank

    Hi Everyone, I think you read my previous post about ich/velvet issue. So I am supposed to wait around 3 months until it dies. But since I do not have anything to lose(fish only aquarium with dry rock) can I just bleach out the tank completely instead? that will save so much time and I just...

    Ich/Velvet treatment

    Is there any good way to prove that it is ich or sand? I saw it happened multiple times ! White spot on my yellow tang/puffer appeared and went away later! But the Puffer liked to play with sand and blow them out! How can I say it is dust sitting on them or ich?

    Ich/Velvet treatment

    So it this case I can say that I did not have parasite before. Powder blue tang brought it all!

    Ich/Velvet treatment

    In this case how I am supposed to make sure my DT being fishless after 6 weeks is safe without using Cupramine? If you think still after several weeks still there is a risk?

    Ich/Velvet treatment

    That Totally Makes Sense! For dust I guess it was what I was seeing on my yellow tang and puffer and went away by itself before.

    Ich/Velvet treatment

    That is great procedure! I love it! Thank for sharing that. In needs lots of patience but at the end it will pay off. Just one question about your Cupramine dosage. When you put 30 drops, and keep them there for 14 days do you do any water change in between? In this case do you add more drops?
