    Doug's heart

    "John's machine has two modes, bi-pap and c-pap. Most people prefer bi-pap mode because the force of air flow isn't CONSTANT. I actually prefer c-pap mode because the NOISE is constant, making it more like white noise, and less like darth vadar. We had John's machined switched to c-pap mode...

    Doug's heart

    Bob, No, neither of us are sleeping with it. :'( Last night, my one daughter asked me if I wanted to have a sleepover in her room. But, I know that I will have to get used to this. John, we know that he will feel a lot better with the machine once he gets used to it. The doctors are very...

    Doug's heart

    The purr actually is quiet, but my husband's breathing isn't. He sounds like Darth Vadar. :o And if he opens his mouth, there is a loud whoosing sound. :o Maybe he just needs to get used to breathing with it on. Or maybe the machine needs to be adjusted to a lower level. The first 20...

    HELP! ICK on my tang

    Olivier, How long have you been soaking their food in garlic? Did you just start or have you been doing it all along? 20 is borderline horrible in my book. If you just started dosing garlic, I would keep doing it and watch them carefully. If you have been dosing all along, I would remove...

    HELP! ICK on my tang

    As long as it isn't a horrible case of ick, I would just leave the fish in the display tank and soak their food in Garlic. It definitely boosts their immune system and helps them fight it off. Now I just soak their food in Garlic once a week and have had no new outbreaks. Erna

    Fish Food Recipe

    As a great food recipe I would suggest Eric Borneman's recipe. It is very easy to make and it is VERY well balanced. Every single inhabitant in your tank, from fish to coral, will enjoy this recipe. If I can't find something I just leave it out or make a substitution. ;D Ingredients * 1 whole...

    Purging my tank of Tulip Anemones

    I know, if I could have controlled them, I would have left them alone. :'( They are beautiful, but as I said before, anything that got in their path, they devoured. >:(

    Purging my tank of Tulip Anemones

    That's what happens when you take pictures during the day and you have huge windows that let in light. ;D Here's a older picture that shows what they look like. They are a bright green with pink tips. They are like majanos or aiptasia in that they are a weed.

    Purging my tank of Tulip Anemones

    Well, Doug and I finally had enough. We have lost so many different corals by these beautiful but deadly. They literally at up anything in their path. The only thing that could keep it away was my RBTA. We had thought that we would try using a torch and burning them off, but we had a couple of...
