  1. Hi fellow reefers, It is with great sadness that I am only writing this post after my beloved clownfish who has been with me for quite a while now has passed on. Up until a few weeks ago, it was eating well. But then suddenly, it started losing its appetite, had long stringy white poop and was very lethargic. I asked around and the consensus was that it may have been having some internal parasites or worms. So, i transferred it into a QT with same parameters as DT and dosed with PraziGold (Eiho). Left it for about 4 days but its appetite still wasn't back, so I transferred it back to DT and observed for a while. Its appetite recovered slightly whereby it ate about 1-2 pellets/mysis shrimp before losing interest. But that didn't last long. It stopped eating again. I even used garlic pellets, garlic guard, frozen mysis shrimp and nori. This time, I did the same thing, transferred into QT and dosed with PraziGold since it still had white stringy poop. This time around, I increased QT temp to about 29 deg but i drip acclimatised it first before putting it it. The next day, my clownfish was just struggling to swim and breathing very heavily. I started to panic and quickly did a freshwater dip on it for about a minute. After noticing it wasn't swimming at all in the freshwater, I prepared another saltwater bath but at 25 deg with air tube, same as DT, and placed it in. It started swimming again for awhile but was generally still lethargic. About 10min later, it died. Somehow I'm pretty sure even though it was sick, at the end perhaps I accelerated its death by doing too many sudden transfers out of sheer panic. That was stupid. This is a mistake I hope to never repeat again. But beyond that, I realised how important it is to stay calm and also be able to identify correctly and have the right medicine on hand to treat any fish diseases the moment they are discovered. What are some essential medications I must have on hand?

  5. Looking to trade my hammer for any torch. Length of hammer is ~3cm. See video for reference (the hammer on the RIGHT). PM me if interested (: IMG_6159.mov
  6. Update: Blue tang seems a lot happier today. Swimming around nibbling at rocks. Both the bicolored angel and blue tang still not eating any food (tried feeding formula 2 pellets, frozen mysis, hikari marine pellets and nori seaweed tied to a hook). Maybe still stressed so will continue to watch. I don't think they're pellet trained either. IMG_6228.MOV

  10. Wa shag okok. Should i start dosing the tank with ICH medicine?
  11. Just did a 10% water change and dosed with API quickstart. Salinity at 1.026. Blue tang seems abit more lively now. Hopefully that will persist.
  12. Hi fellow reefers, I got a blue hippo tang from ABA ytd. Super active and swimming really well. No sign of ice or any disease also. I did drip acclimatisation before releasing it into my tank (cycled) and it was swimming happily ytd trying to find hiding spaces between the rocks. But this morning, it was just lying flat on the tank bed breathing heavily. The bicolored angel that i've housed it with ( also got from ABA ytd) seems to be doing fine. I checked the water parameters: 0 Ammonia 0 - 0.25 Nitrite Both fishes haven't eaten since i put them in ytd. What should i do? Should i do a 10% water change? Thank you! IMG_6202.MOV
