Thanks, she died about 20 minutes after I took the picture. Is there something I can do to try and prevent infection to other fish in the tank? Currently none are exhibiting symptoms.

This started as a faded white patch about a week ago. Then about 2 days ago started getting worse. I did a freshwater dip (4 minutes) yesterday. Any idea what it is? Thanks in advance

The flakes and pellets all have garlic already.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I picked up a juvenile clown from a reputable LFS last week and it died 4 days later with no apparent symptoms. Yesterday I went back and picked up another one from the same tank at the LFS. For the new Clown: 1. I saw the fish eat in the LFS 2. I...

Thought I lost the little guy but about two months after he disappeared I found him living in the overflow of my 60g Cube. With the return and drain I can’t get a net in there plus he’s really quick. Any suggestions to get him out?

Hi, I?m looking for some emerald crabs to work on my GHA/bubble algae. Hoping someone has a few that have cleaned their tank and need a new source of food. Happy to pay or trade. Thanks, Matt

Yes it?s 7.5 gal. I don?t actually have a capsule of it. Just a limp of powder.

So I?m going to dose fliconazole to get rid of bryopsis in my smaller tank. I need about 150mg of the powder. Does anyone know how to measure such a small amount? I was wondering how large the spoon is that comes with Chemiclean or BRS Reef Chili?

Just called Aquarium Village. $45 per box or $129 for 3. Said he always has them on sale. Down to 1 box but he should have more in Friday evening. Thanks Bonomo

I go to advanced marine every once in a while, they clearly don?t know me. I feel that they give you room to look around without pouncing on you. After a few minutes they always say hi. The main guy there always seems to go the extra mile for me and other people in the store (cutting the stem...

?I believe? the purple doesn?t have the increased calcium, alk and other elements in it that you get with most other salt. If you have a FOWLR tank you don?t need them.
