  1. i need your hook-up on shipping lol
  2. well iv have six that i kept in my tide pools together going on 2 years a few jumped to there deaths thats how i ended with six but have had no probs with them killing each other in a 50 gal prop tank(i use them to naturaly feed my frags)and have clients also that have 6 or more for the last year with no probs so i gess what im saying is 50gal or larger u should be fine with six but as we all know fish that are normaly docile can turn murder in small systems but of all the damsels these are the only ones i trust not to go jehaad on my other fish and i get the schooling with out spending the big bucks for anthias and frankly i think there pretty(fish)
  3. My own opinion is never treat in your main tank unless u really know what your doing i use a quarintine like above mentioned if u overdose it could cost u more then your fish so iv always gone the safer then sorry route if u mess up in the hospital tank u usally see the fish r distressed and a quick water change things go back to normal mess up in ur display usally done deal.But above treatment methods work and little curouis what fanteseas have thats works so well always looking for better safer treatments.
  4. Never had a prob yet but id do what impur suggested always good to play it safe.(fish)
  5. just another idea that would kinda go with option A is to run chiller outside so as not to add heat under sump or room that its in thats how i install most of the ones ive done for clients plus some chillers can be noisey just a thought.
  6. I use muric acid (spelling prob wronge) it works great i use one cup per five gal but viniger works as well just with the acid never add water to it always add it to water or it can blow up in your face but other than that safe to use everything looks new.
  7. my bad ur right much better pic DOH!
  8. Ben looking for thread but cant find one on due's or any info on cost per month and so and so forth as my business grows would be interested in this but need to know costs.
  9. ive got those two its a arm of a brittle star no need to worry
  10. well my experiance in small system slow growth in large system medium growth i had blue tang in a fifty four years grew to about 6inch and seemed to stop growing but when i built my new fish room and threw him in my 350gal tide pool within three months he jumped to around 8inch and is fat and never looked better so even though they my survive a smaller tank they need swiming room to be happy and healthy beings my smaller tank was full of rock and corals as he grew he reached a point of almost getting stunted i think if i hadnt moved to larger system would have died so with this said i will not recommend these guys to clients or anyone setting up a tank under 100gal unless your leaving plenty of swiming room otherwise will not do well long term.Oh also as these guys grow in your small system they will kill till one remains more then one only works in large systems also just like most tangs in small tanks even the most docile can turn murderer be careful be best to get final fish additions while small.
