    Which Model Hydor Koralia...

    I have two K3's on my 75 gallon tank which gives medium flow. One on each side. The K4's were to much for my softies.

    Anyone using garlic here?

    Garlic is suppose to boost the immune sysyem. I believe that alone will help fight off ich and other diseases.

    LFS question

    I found that you need to have a good relationship with the store before they will give you credit. Usually, calling one out the blue will state no credit. They will take it and sell for a profit though. I would list it here for sale or free before giving to a LFS that won't give credit. Heck...

    Anyone using garlic here?

    I have only used garlic cloves if I saw a breakout of ich. I would hang several cloves in the tank and replace every 2 or 3 days. This seemed to help the fish fight off the disease.

    Anybody know how to get anemones off the live rock?

    Take some tank water and ice, mix tom get cool/cold water. Take a turkey baster filled with this mix and blast it at the foot. It will eventually let but take time.

    Need Help.....

    wish I could help you but the biggest empty tank I have is 30g; way to small for the fish you have. Best of luck curing them.

    Black Ich

    I tied garlic cloves and hung them in the tank to help boost the fish's immune system. I would say it was 60/40 and think it depends how far it advanced. My skimmer would go nuts but it was a crappy one. Good luck.

    Bubble coral care

    I have a 3" green bubble that is on the bottom. I keep it under T5 lights with no problem. I rarely target feed it and it's doing well, just slow growing. I target feed it more I am sure it would grow easily.

    I can bring a 4/5 head candy cane. They seem to be doing better.

    Evaporation

    My system evaporates about 1.5 gallons a day also. I did notice that most of it happens at night while I am a sleep. I assume it's because the heat is going more at night than the day. I keep the cabinet doors open to get more air and it helps a little. I have no fan either.

    frogspawn needs help

    How is the flow on the coral? They don't like to be blasted. The other thing is what fish are you keeping? I had a dwarf Keyhole angel that picked on everything. Once I removed it my corals came back. Yes, it picked at a hammer and frogspawn killing both. The above causes the coral to close and...

    Overflow noise

    I have the same problem for 1.5 years now. I'll be watching this thread for an answer. In the meantime do what did; told the wife to sit in another room.

    Lemon Peel

    Just curious if anyone ever keep a Lemon Peel Angel in a reef setup? From what I recently read opinions vary. In a reef with caution to not reef safe because they like to nip at LPS, some softies, zoas and clam mantles.

    Firefish?!

    Mine jumped out about 4 feet away from the tank. Didn't know until I stepped on it. I have a cover now but don't keep them although they are nice fish.

    Overflow Bubbling uncontrollably

    I have seen something similar in my setup. The problem was the in sump skimmer wasn't functioning properly and some foam did appear in the sump. However, not that much.

    zoa pox, where can I get furan 2 near Middletown?

    That stinks. I was just at PetsMart and didn't see anything like that; not even a coral dip. Try Pets Plus in Airport Plaza. If not guess you'll need a trip to AqOb or Trop.

    Candy Cane coral concern

    Jay, Definitely a water problem. I did a 5gallon tap water change yesterday and add 3 gallons of RO top off. I also added 3ml of Reef Plus. Today the big piece under the light is looking better and other heads started to pop out. Was holding off because I can't make RO in the winter, outside...

    Powerheads??

    K2's pump 600gph. I had 2 K4's in my 75g with mainly softies and it was way to much flow. I now have two K3's and it is much better.
