  1. The Juice Towers: Day 11 of the GHA treatment btw. Almost all gone. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  2. Bummer dude Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  3. Day 1 Day 7 Day 1 Day 7 Day 1 Day 7 I don’t think it’s actually killing the algae, it’s just stopping it so the CUC can take care of it. I’m sold Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  4. After 3 days Seems to be working well Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  5. Back to QT’ing new fish. Had these guys about a week. Ramped up to therapeutic copper power in the bottom Tank and CP in the top. Also running Anti Biotics and prazi. Seems that everything else I’ve tried has been snake oil or just the wrong treatment. I’ve also found that using an ammonia sponge really helps with issues (not on the copper Tank) It may be too early to say but it seems that the GHA treatment is already working in the fact that it’s not growing. Normally I’d have to prime it every other day or so. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  6. I read about a few stubborn strains, and people increased the dosage to 34mg per gallon. I started with the regular dose and will go from there. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  7. Been fighting some pockets of hair algae for a while so I’m going to be the local genie pig on a new medicine for Bryopsis and GHA. Your suppose to dose 20mg per gallon so that works out to 22 pills of Fluconazole. Dissolved into a glass and dosed to the Tank with the skimmer turned down and carbon turned off. GHA is supposed to be gone in 21 days.... here’s hoping! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  8. I love the hybrid because you can ramp up and down the leds, change their colors throughout the day, etc. and it’s all in one instead of more plugs and wires. But that’s me. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  9. Hmm.. I think she’s mistaken since her Tank is 8’ and she had 2 ATIs covering from end to end. which would make them 4’. 36” would definitely be too small for you if that’s the case. You may also want an auto neck cleaner for that skimmer. I have the regal 300 and it’s a monster! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  10. Looks good so far! Is the ATI the 4’. Jenn is selling her basically brand new ATI hybrids so you could upgrade to the hybrid. I love mine. Plan for substrate? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  11. It was a group buy order with did with one of the members who was trying to start up a business out of his garage. Lived in Kyle or Buda. Can’t remember his name, but he’s still a member. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  12. I think it’s just a red Mille mariculture, or at least that’s how it was sold to me. It one of the ones that didn’t make it through the transition. Can I get a piece back?! Lol Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  13. Yeah I could buy 25 for 3.50 each or 50 for 2.50 each. I went with 50 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  14. I think you could still have it in wall but just not all the way in. Maybe like halfway? Idk Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  15. One of the reasons I’m hesitant to ever have an in wall tank... the side view! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  16. Well 2 months later I finally caught the last fish from the Tank. Waiting 90 days before I put any fish back in just to be certain. Here’s my tank as of today: I some how didn’t catch all the Aiptasia and bubble algae when I transitioned to the new Tank so it has exploded. I’m trying some radiant for the bubble algae and dosing exactly as instructed along with my normal routine. I also invested in a wholesale order of 50 peppermint shrimp so we’ll see if they can kick these Aiptasia back since I can’t have any fish in the tank right now. And now I’ll work on QT’ing new fish and adding them to my fish tub until Feb 20th hits! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  17. I think it looks nice. Staying white? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  18. Got some wired polyp extension on that Little farmer frag.... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  19. Well... went back to Dr Harris at North Austin Animal Hospital for official diagnosis so I make sure I do what I’m supposed to. He says... it’s ICH....... WTF.... showed me the living cell on his phone that he scrapped off my Bariene and everything. If that’s the case.... I’ve never seen ich that kills like this. So severe that it has the outward appearance of Velvet?! But.... it does explain why it’s only affecting the more prone fish, and the non prone are showing no symptoms. It makes me think I may have had this strain in the Tank the entire time as I did the Fallow Time needed for Velvet, but didn’t wait the extra time for ich. So, back to catching everything again. My new approach will be to go ahead and treat everything the same way, with either Copper Power or Chloroquine Phosphate regardless of where they come from or if thy show symptoms or not. Every fish will be treated.... I’m sooo through with this crap, and I’m going to keep it that way. Diligence and patience. Time to focus on Coral for 90 days! Lol Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  20. Yes. Idk. Just trying to think of what could help. I think that might be worth a try? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  21. Hmm. How about doing some Chemi clean? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  22. Hmm.. do you have any form of carbon dosing? Vodka or bio pellets? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  23. Fresh carbon helped a lot when I had Dinos Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  24. Well... my bad luck with fish continues..... Came home last night to the idol, powder, bariene, and Sohal riddled with Velvet. All I can guess is one of them had it going in but never showed signs during QT. The stress of being added in triggered it. The Copperband was in the tank for about a month, which makes me believe he just got it from one of these new guys. My QT process included Prazi and antibacterial on all fish but didn't include copper or CP unless I saw signs. I guess I need to go ahead and Copper and CP everyone since that didn't work. The rest of my tank inhabitants seem fine and don't show any signs of Velvet. I'm filling up my Water bin now to fill the QTs and start catching fish again. Juicemans Coral Only tank?!
