  1. Yeah, screw this thing.... Let's just all move to the Caribbean and instead of fish tanks, we'll have fish cages. The flow is so natural and random!

     

    But seriously... Horizonal Gyre flow is pretty cool. Low velocity, high volume. I do see some interesting patterns in sandbeds occurring though.

  2. Lol... 8.3 ammonia. It would be easier to measure how much water is in the ammonia.

     

    Isn't there a good broad spectrum antibiotic for this kind of thing? I can't remember any names. Somethingmiacin. :).

     

    One thing that would worry me is how light it looks. Kole tangs are usually pretty dark in color. Does it have a coating?

  3. Jorge.... Unfortunately this stuff is INFESTED with copepods... :)

     

    There MAY be slight pieces of caulerpa taxifolia and other pieces of caulerpa serrulata, though I've done a pretty good job of eradicating the taxi. Nothing real bad though... No aiptasia...

  4. Feed good quality food - vitamins don't hurt. It's possible that's bacterial. Ich will never go away, but a bacterial infection could really stress a fish out. What are your water parameters?

  5. That's old school man! Just get a bigger skimmer. :)

     

    Honestly though, I tend to have more problems with DSB's than not. Unless you have the space for a gigantic undisturbed DSB, I say ditch it and save yourself the complexity. A skimmer will give you more benefits in a smaller space, IMO.

  6. Did you try turning it off and on again? Kicking it? How about singing it a song?

     

    Yeah, my first instinct would be to yell at bill and tell him he sold me a lemon..... but mostly just because it's bill and I love defying him - even though he's the most agreeable person in the world.

     

    Give Bo a call. He's a super nice guy and i'm sure even if it's not under warranty, he'd be willing to help you out in SOME way. Perhaps this is just a sign you need to upgrade? :P
