SRC Member minsmarine Posted December 28, 2004 Author SRC Member Share Posted December 28, 2004 problem is no space to let Tang swing. Because you have not seen my new scape yet. No space at all. Just now shoot the whole tank, Blur, will update you later. Quote Life is like a peice of Uncured Live Rock [ from LFS ], you never know what you gonna get.........

weileong Posted December 28, 2004 Share Posted December 28, 2004 IMO best way is to remove the rock and scrape them outside the tank. Don't even try pluck them in the tank cos that will release the spores and it will spread even more. You can try a foxface rabbit fish, might help.

SRC Member minsmarine Posted December 29, 2004 Author SRC Member Share Posted December 29, 2004 Thank, I will try to scrap outside tank either today or tomorrow. If permit, I will move the rock to Sump and get new rock ( a few ) for display tank. It's ok Quote Life is like a peice of Uncured Live Rock [ from LFS ], you never know what you gonna get.........
