So today is 30 days of copper treatment for the fish. Yesterday, one of them started hiding. I noticed the other two beat the crap outta him whenever he comes out. I'm gong to start running carbon and do a couple water changes tomorrow. Once I get the copper down to zero, I'd be happy to...

Good tip! I've been adding right to the tank directly where the HOB return is. However, I'm going to start diluting it a little and poring it in the same place.

Yeah, I think there is/was something else going on as well. We lost a royal gramma in the DT as well. Disappeared 5-6 days before I broke the tank down to QT everyone. Not a trace left of it. ☹️

Thanks everyone. I'll be in North Arlington later today and will see if i can sneak away for a quick trip to Absolutely Fish.

Does anyone know where you can buy LRS food in Northern NJ? Sea Level Aquarium doesn't carry it (only Rod's Foods).

I've been documenting my progress more on my website (more of a personal blog) and at HumbleFish. Quick update though. We lost both tangs within 24 hours in QT. The Royal Gramma died in the display and there was nothing left of her. The entire display was taken down to get the fish out and...

Glad to hear you are feeling better. It's important to stay on top of your health though. Like I said, see if the Dr. can all the other dr he refereed and have him take you on. I had an issue like that in the past where my Dr referred me to a specialist and that specialist wasn't taking new...

Ask the old doctor for another name. Or ask if he can make a call on your behalf so he takes you on.

Damn man. Wasn’t expecting that when I opened the post. I know a little about addiction. Sober for 14 years now. Hang in there. Things will get better. Best of luck with the new doctor. My mother recently had nerves on her spine burned off for pain relief. Back pain is no joke. Let us know if...

So, I just realized that giving this away right now probably isn't a good idea as I have ich in the tank and ich eggs can be on the sand, which the starfish is covered with. I'll try spot feeding him again to try to keep him healthy.

Looks great! I need to up my water mixing station game!!! lol

So HumbleFish doesn't need to answer me in 10 places going forward, I'll keep a diary of my progress over the next few months over at his website. I'd be happy to share anything I learn or answer any questions (if I can) if anyone has any...

Yes, he's still available. I'm in Rockaway.

I was worried about the star having enough food as my tank isn't fully mature. Now that I'm going fallow, I'm really concerned. Let me know if anyone wants him. I'm in Northern NJ. Would hate to see him starve.

So based on all the feedback received, here is my adjusted plan. Again, I would love any feedback and/or suggestions. 1) PetSmart has a 37-gallon starter kit. The only issue is that the filter comes with some type of bio-bag that has carbon. My plan is to ditch that and pick up some...

Awesome. Thank you again. I have my Bulk Reef Supply and Amazon shopping carts ready to go with the necessary medications and items. I'll see what I can pick up from the local petsmart tomorrow and order the rest online. I'll also be picking up a 10 gallon for future QT of new fish. No way...

@Humblefish Thank you so much for taking the time to review all of this with me. I'm almost done with your interview with reef dudes and have been all over your website the last couple weeks. Do you think a 29 (or 40) gallon would work for all the fish or just the tangs? (Yellow Tang, Blue...

Probably about 3 inches each. I want to make sure they have enough room in the QT for the full fallow period as well.

I should also add that this hasn't effected his appetite at all. I started feeding nori daily and try to supplement selcon in the food every other day. He's probably the biggest eater in the tank.
