impur Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 Looks good, nice job on the rock work. I've gone thru 4 transfers like this. IME its best to have a bucket with 50/50 water from both tanks, then let the corals rest in there for 30-60min before going into the new tank.

Hozer21 Posted June 2, 2011 Author Share Posted June 2, 2011 I have moved all my fish over as well . Which are a purple tang , X-mas wrasse , Formosa Wrasse , purple stripe wrasse , Highfin Perchlet (anthias) , Sunburst anthias , Spotted Mandarin & last but not least the hardest fish to get out of my old tank the Midas Blenny & I only will be adding 3 more fish and that will be all for this cube tank . My Wife isn't happy with the fish right now because I don't have my clown fish yet but I have told her they will be in there shortly and the last fish will hopefully be coming here shortly from Ed's reef but we shall wait and see when he can get my lovely other fish in .

[/quote'] Thanks Roy yeah you can swing by anytime exept the first week of august the fam and I will be in Disney land for my sons 6th birthday & I have to run it by Wendy lol but maybe a meeting sometime I would inspect the frags for parasites. Also temperature swings if the tank is getting too hot can cause problems. that's what I wasn't hoping for lol but I was thinking that as well . Well the temp in the tank is right at 78 degrees and as low as 75 degrees at night Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reefnjunkie Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 What type of wrasse is the pain? I know I found flat worms on a couple pices in my tank-Not sure where the heck they came from but I had my Purple Nano slowly dying, I took it to Westside and when Tim was dipping it about 15 flatworms came off of it. He said to watch my Millies and my Tricolors as they go for those types more I guess. I cam hole and dipped my ORA Verde and had about 5 come off it- It too was an acro that was slowing dying from the base up. I took a few acros into Westside about a month ago and no bugs came off of those pieces-Not sure where the heck they came from but my tank has RTD's (Kim says) Reef Transmitted Disease (sad) Long way to say maybe dip a piece and see if anything pops off- I will never "not" dip again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
