I don't know how hardy the blenny is or what else you have in the tank but I got rid of my ich by slowly raising the temperature over 3 days to 86 degrees and keeping it there for 2 weeks. All my livestock is pretty bulletproof(clowns, cardinals, mushrooms, zoas, shrimps and snails) and of...

I'm hella down. Paging Derek from OT.

Helfrichi firefish. First you see the $10 red firefish, then the $18 purple one, then the $80-$100 helfrichi. Quite a jump in price there.

Ahh. The hard truth. Very generous of you to offer a used tank and I just may take you up on your offer as soon as I can get a stand for it.

Those look like some spoiled clowns :bigsmile:

Aww man. Sorry to hear. They're great fish. :(

I wouldn't worry about it much. Those nudis are free food for your six line!!

I thought that stuff was diatoms. I always get that after mixing and throwing the water in my main reserve container.
