I am more into the word "The corals are now under the care of Resorts World Sentosa"

You don't need any ammonia spike if you don't need to kill anythings. I setup my 3ft tank without introducing ammonia spike in the process. On the 4th day if no ammonia spike mean setup is smooth.

Ammonia spike occur when many things die, rotten and wipe out during setup.

My 3ft tank, on the 4th day I throw corals and fishes in lao But my not a proper example

Check if there is any brown slimy disease. If there is, will spread to other heads, treat immediately. May be water flow not correct, try change location.

farm have a lot

mm.. seem like the male seahorses not doing well now, might be dying soon.

mm.. look the same. Btw i think my male seahorses pregnant .. .. ? Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk

You have smaller amount? Probably purely only ochotdes. I afraid other algae spread like wild fire and out of control. Btw will snail eat away ochotdes?

very nice Bro !! btw where you collect you algae? can get some algae from you? I have a filefish too.. but WTG anyone in future when other things stable

I read that some fish are carrier, the parasite was either dormant in the substrate or imbedded on fish tissue with no outward signs of infection. The parasite will embed and begin feeding, but the fish’s body produces something that nullifies the parasite. While in mt, there is chance of parasitic reoccurrence. I think is hard to have a parasite free mt. Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk

Yuma is sea anemone type. If you press on it, it will fire for self defence. If contact area is large than gana lot of toxin lor. I even got stung by super sun coral before, accidentally press on it hard .. hahah. Also very pain. Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk

Unless very tiny fish.. my mt dont have holes for them to hide.. but yesterday when i catching dory.. i got stung by orange yuma. About 1x3cm affected area on 4th left finger. Very pain, finger turn red and swollen, chest also pain. Last for like 5 hrs, before the pain reduce. Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk

Ya .. haha. And put in sump tank after that and see of the skin recover. Those are white dots but not powdery type. Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk

Thanks, will study on iron. My tank setup very simple, only few cheap equipments running it. Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk

Dory been in my tank for few months already. Very energetic. Just weeks ago i added some new fish, some sick and die. All of the fish i buying, i will check that it does not have obvious disease and parasite. But few weeks ago at pacific reef, i ask the shop guy to catch me a healthy copperband. Reach home put in tank then saw the copperband is full of parasite. Scared me to hell. I take it out and scrape it and put back. It seem ok, but because reject to eat frozen food, after 3 weeks it become weak, saw many white powdery dot on it, it health deteriorate very fast. I put it on qt and it pass away very soon. Dory was eating well, occasionally have white dot but will gone itself. But yesterday the white powdery seem to come back despite having soaked foods. I afraid the parasite will spread in the mt. It is not the normal ich that i afraid, but is the powdery one that scary. Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk

Thanks, is good idea but my qt currently can only handle small bio load, have difficulty even to hold the big dory. Since others fish have no sign of powdry white dots. I leave them in mt first. Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk

Thanks many for the advises. My mt have coral, thus not able to do treatment directly on mt. Dory swimming normal this morning, just that it is still frighten and not eating frozen food. Dory it is well fed before taken out of mt. Other fishes in mt not infected, it be better to leave them in mt tank, as my qt can only cycle small load. Will go buy medicine today. I try to return dory to mt as soon as treatment allow. Will take note of water flow in mt. Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk

Tomorrow buying treatment solution/tab, just afraid it might die in my QT due to other reason.

Thanks, I afraid itch will grow more and more every cycle, worse scenario afraid all other fishes will get this itch and die.

Hermit crabs have many type. Blue legged hermit crab and red legged hermit crab are safer scavengers. However they don't eat cyano. Some fish (some goby) will eat cyano, you can also try snail and sea hares. But if cyano grow faster than they can do, you can try to remove cyano manually until your tank stable. Reduce while light will help.

Need ID advise on the white powdery dot around blue tank tail body. Was this transmitted from other fish? will it transmit from blue tank to other fishes again. Anyone can suggest the proper treatment to do? I had took it out of the main tank do a 2 min flesh water bath and put it in a QT, it look very stress right now.

By the way, did you wash the media (chemipure blue, activated carbon and rowaphos) with RO/DI water or tank water before putting in? I suspect your tank 1) have a ammonia spark due to removal of old media or 2) putting new media without washing enough

I think u can try remove ur new chemipure blue first. Change at least 50 to 80 % water Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk
