Soft Coral Aggressive Reef

[GreenSpottedPuffer]

You can see in a few of the pics that two of the three puffers get ich sometimes. I have been soooo frustrated by this, to the point I was ready to give up saltwater. But it never seems to bother them and I have tried hypo with no luck already. I feel QTing them again would be more hurtful than helpful.

The only fish who get ich are the Burrfish and Dogface puffer. About 6 spots each and it seems to be monthly.

I think the fish all look quite healthy otherwise and I contribute most of that to the fact that they eat three times a day.

Once a month I buy prawns, mussels, clam meat, snapper, squid, chop it all up and mix it in a big bowl with silversides, mysis and the tropic marin immunity vitamins (I dont remember the name right now) as well as chopped up garlic. Mix it all together really well and then make individual bags that are frozen. Every night I throw one into the fridge to thaw for the next day.

The tropic marin vitamins have given my fish an incredible colouring.
