weileong Posted January 25, 2005 Share Posted January 25, 2005 That time you added the AT w/o hypo treating it that's why it brought in the ich lor. Try to pump up your AT and it should do well. Nitrate problem can be solved by using a better skimmer or more regular water changes.

Boh bain went through 2mths of fishless tank and hypo-salinity on all fishes before adding AT but the @#$&*$ ich still comes back. Lucky thing is that this AT more tolerant thus I have had him for 2nths plus liao without any problem. hahah i am still in my hypo Sal.. no more itch, but then since i got no coral, i dun want to adjust it back, worried tat my AT will have itch. Any side effect? But i tot ur AT is from a very good source? could it be the itch in yr tank is still ard Quote GIve up liao!!!!!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weileong Posted January 25, 2005 Share Posted January 25, 2005 Bo pian... not feeling well since sat. Haven't been sleeping well these few nights too, hopefully tomorrow will be better. iori_del, better not lower the salinity for too long, might affect the health of the fish. As long as you hypo properly for full 8 weeks and no addition of new fishes, there's no reason ich will drop from the sky Quote Weileong's 4ft tank Part I Weileong's 4ft tank Part II Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weileong Posted January 25, 2005 Share Posted January 25, 2005 At sg 1.008 you need to tune the skimmer very wet then can get skimmate. Some skimmer will not even skim anything. Cos most of the proteins will remain dissolved in the water at that low SG compared to full 1.025. If you so scared then setup a quarantine tank for the corals and LR Quote Weileong's 4ft tank Part I Weileong's 4ft tank Part II Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gouldian Posted January 25, 2005 Author Share Posted January 25, 2005 mystery wrasse... on my want-list also it has the chek-ark look on its face Pseudocheilinus - another family of wrasses worth mentioning! Maybe bro, you can do some coverage of it for our benefits. DA: seems like the Mystery Wrasse also can be use to control pyramid snails.

No choice lah, just like I have a Leopard wrasse in my tank and I only get to see it on weekend cause it only comes out from 11am to about 2pm. I oso have a long finned pseudochromid that I only have a glimpse once in a blue moon if I am lucky.
