Ivy,
When your tank is ready & you feel like having more corals again, I'll have some gift bags ready for you. Hopefully the TurboTwist UV will help you at least get rid of the ick. It's the least Irene & I can do for your efforts in organizing the Aquarium tour. Your Reefing neighbour, Anthony

No sympathy post, this is just an update for the concerned parties who were wondering what is up with the tank..
Pineapple Coral, Toadstool, and Potters Angel are dead... Starting to hate coming into my living room coz I'll find something else dead in the tank.. Everything else is looking to be perking up... except the Brazilian Gramma.. Still has ALOT of Ick, and I don't know how to help it... shoudl I catch it and FW dip it? Isn't that more trauma after all this stress? Suggestions? (also catching it would require me to move around 80lbs of live rock.. thus restarting my cycle and stressing out my other fish...) I think my Cleaner shrimp died in the salinity adjustment. I haven't seen them in a while...

IF the brazilian gramma allowed the cleaner to clean him i would definatly pick another up. Or go with a neon goby. THey are hardy and will take care of ich. If you dont want it eventualy it wouldnt be hard to get rid of.

I would definatley give the gramma a FW dip. I did this with mine and it responded really well to it. make sure to balance the PH and the temp. Mine gramma is one of the easiest fish to catch, dont know about yours. hope the tank pulls through and none of it is your fault.

If you are going to be doing the freshwater dip......... I have some buffer powder (sodium carbonate) that you can have to increase the pH of the freshwater you are going to use for the dip. Just let me know & I will bring it on Sunday.
Cheers, Vic [veng68]
