    My first Fish copper Qt treatment

    I also ordered the one Thomas refrenced just to be safe. I think he meant maybe if it's a emergency like oh crap thing. I assume as you mentioned water change would be the key method. Not that I would intend to rely on the ammonia remover stuff in place of water changes.

    My first Fish copper Qt treatment

    I have one of the ammonia badges. I have prime I believe would that be sufficient or no? Would one badge be good or is this something that should be replaced during the treatment?

    My first Fish copper Qt treatment

    @Turkeysammich directed at you as well Sir. Got it thanks. I won't use any rocks or sand. I looked up the scheme matrix stuff found a article from humble reef. He says it won't absorb any copper. So I will get some. Earliest I can get it is tomorrow. I can put some of the 4 inch plastic...

    I have 4 of those each rated for up to 160 gallons. I didn't seed them at all still brand new. As you mentioned. Thoughts on a few golf ball size rocks from sump on sps tank?

    My first Fish copper Qt treatment

    I've never done one before. Should I ? Do I just net him out the tank and put him in a bucket of heated rodi and For how long? Or is there more that I would need to consider? He would be easy to catch he follows me around. The others would be a nightmare.

    My first Fish copper Qt treatment

    It definitely was. Previously I have only lost two pairs of clowns in the previous 2.5 years since starting the tanks - killed by a six line before getting my maroon clowns. Now I'm in love with the evil maroons and have 3 pairs. So loosing fish back to back hurt in such a short time...

    My first Fish copper Qt treatment

    I've been wanting to consider bio media! Yet I was scared off by some sources say they can absorb copper making things harder tk keep stable. At the same time they would help a ton with fighting off ammonia. How do you balance, consider or plan for that I honestly have no idea??? The sponges...

    My first Fish copper Qt treatment

    Yeah it probably would. I gave away the 50gallon tank I had the week before, and a 40 breeder i had a few months before that. In a effort to clean out the extra larger tanks. I also didn't have any thing to set those tanks on like a stand or something. I only have folding tables that I wouldn't...

    Id my zoa

    Beyond a few (named) types of specific Palythoas and some zoas, confirmed by people's experiences with them. There is no way to tell what zoas or Palythoas carry the toxins. Yet it's best to assume that they all do. To determine that type of thing would involve a full blown medical grade...

    My first Fish copper Qt treatment

    I saw one article said they can tolerate copper power but not the other types. In addtion I saw a utuber treating one. Of course I won't go off a single non expert online source/ video Without more research. Maybe I need to see if Kenny has time to chat . Yet I will plan to specifically...

    My first Fish copper Qt treatment

    To start things off, I thought I would start a thread hear specifically related to this topic and my progress. The fact being that I've never did this before. Knowing that at somepoint all the advice and wisdom shared here would likely be off benefit to others now or in the future. My tank...

    Featured Tank tour sign up thread

    Where are you located? That would help with planning when we get more signups. Consider starting a tank journal and possibly become a supporting member. There is a saying in the club that you support the club and the club supports you back. It's also the best $30 bucks you could ever spend...

    Andy’s 30gal Hot Mess

    Maybe force trigger a power outage to find out like turn off power strip or unplug it abruptly. Good idea not to be caught off guard to ensure it doesn't end up on the floor. Than make a plan or adjust based on results. If you do a tube as you mentioned same thing test it out as well.

    Feeding gobies

    If you add them after dark greater chance of more living long enough to find hiding spots. Some will always make it of course. But lights on dumping them in sounds dinner bell. It also helps if you pause flow for around ten mins to let them find a spot not required by any means. You will find...

    Willie’s Last Aquarium Build

    So combination of a air sponge filter/ skimmer with top off you think sufficient for copper power treatment? I bought: 1.).a box of 4 sponge filters each rated for 125-150 gallons. With 4 I'm thinking I should have extra to just throw them away during the course of treatment when they are...
