Careful with the snails and intakes to pumps. If not properly screened you could end up with a burnt out motor or flood.

There's a Kessil app for Android, you just have to be on your home network to make changes and have the WiFi dongle (although it looks like you have the ap9x which doesn't need it). It sometimes forgets your light too and you have to reconnect it.

You can put the clowns in acclimation boxes or egg crate off sections. Since you've had multiple outbreaks of various fish disease, and fish can appear asymptomatic, I'm guessing you likely have reservoirs of fish disease in these other tanks. Or you take all the corals, rocks, etc. and put...

Chances are the cryptocaryon tomonts are in your other tanks too given the proximity of your tanks and anyone (or cats) that may cross from touching a tank and back. Are all fish going in?

Dry side is probably toast, but they're easy to swap out. I can show you how. Just $$, Ecotech gets it at every end of use.

I'll take it

@SeanMc did you mean to transfer your colony to Boun? Or give him a frag?

Makes the old pumps talk to each other

Dibs!

Yeah you can try building a skimmer stand, but the recommended height is 6-6.5". That's the downside of the old AC pump skimmers. Tuning a skimmer can be one of the more annoying things with a new tank. That model is probably oversized for your tank too and might make it almost impossible to...

Tiger tails are generally not problematic, I'm pretty sure a lot of people in the club have kept them (or lost them) without issue. But if your pumps are anywhere they could reach, you should be careful since a strong Vortech etc. can destroy one.

Well if you don't rehome any, they'll end up being more shells for the hermits. For the tiger tails, keep in mind they reproduce by splitting, and they're mostly nocturnal. My copperband ate mine though. It also ate the snorkels off my nassarius snails and the antennae off the other snails.

Looks way more easy to deal with!

I usually add extra shells for hermits of different sizes to prevent death. Usually pretty easy to get them at your lfs from the ones that don't survive shipping. That's also probably too many nassarius snails unless you have a lot of messy eaters in the tank. You may need to feed them or they...

Fluconazole likely won't work from what I've read and experienced since it's not macroalgae, it's cyanobacteria. I tried to get some pictures but my glass isn't the cleanest: Again no holdfast really, comes off with a toothbrush.

Prime is good. Read the instructions on the badge, it's not just drop in, there's a couple things to keep track of.

Sweet thanks John. Starting his routine today.

Ammo alert badges are helpful for QT too. Keep some amquel or water conditioner around too for emergencies.
