[Mr. Seahorse]

I'm not super worried on that but I appreciate the info!

Yea, all good i really like nems, just information for consideration is all.

 

[Mr. Seahorse]

This is the nem in my main tank.

 

[Mr. Seahorse]

This is the nem moved in my new 1.5 nem tank

whats in the media bag that's zip-tied? you put carbon in it? are you able to put it somewhere for more waterflow as in a sump / canister / hob?

also: based on your pictures, where is your flow? i don't see any powerheads.

 

[MichaelB]

Do you have more rocks that are larger that you could use to raise the rocks (stack nem rocks on top of them)higher that nems are on for more light?

Also agree with power head for nems. You don't want them blowing directly onto the nems. So indirect flow 9s ideal. Nems do love to blow in the current. A single happy nem would easy fill your entire 5 gallon tank wall to wall when happy and fully inflated.

Nems can get pretty unhappy just like that when the water is still. They like to be waving in the current

It's a powerhead

It's a powerhead

Working with what you got, love it hahah

 

[Mr. Seahorse]

The nem is now in my 1.8 nem tank with 200-300 par for now.
This pic is it in the tank

 

[Mr. Seahorse]

It looks even better now! It's doing great!

 

[Mr. Seahorse]

Sadly my Molly now has Ich and so I am converting him back to freshwater and I will wait it out in my 20 gallon since he is my only fish. More updates will come.
Wish me luck.
Happy reefing everyone!

 

[Mr. Seahorse]

I have acclimated him to my 10 gallon freshwater tank. He is doing better now.

 

[Mr. Seahorse]

He is laying down a bit in the freshwater tank what should I do?

 

[H2OPlayar]

Humblefish has the best info on fish diseases. My thought would be to give it as much stability as possible from what it has been used to.

 

[Mr. Seahorse]

I updated all my DBTC's to 0 avalible because of the Ich.

 

[Mr. Seahorse]

The Molly is doing great! All my corals are doing awesome!

 

[Mr. Seahorse]

Sadly I cannot participate with the hammers I was planning to because of the Ich. So I will maybe participate with my forest fire shrooms or hammers from @Captain Ron's tank
My Molly is such a voracious eater
Happy Reefing everyone and stay warm!

 

[Mr. Seahorse]

My Dragon Soul torch is doing great and is growing another head!
QT is at 20 days now.
I will PIF a couple splatter hammers after the Ich is gone.

 

[Mr. Seahorse]

Dolphin my Molly has been aggressive in my 10g freshwater tank so I have PIF'ed him to @Captain Ron's 90 gallon tank so he can live a happy and healthy life.
I am planning to take the tank down in a few weeks after I'm sure that the ich has died off.
If you are interested in any of my corals or inverts I will have a post in the BST forum soon.
