I've never seen him being chased or bullied before. We have a Niger trigger and they acted like best friends. At this time we don't have any corals for himrohave munched on. Someone told me he might have some type of parasite or worm, so setting up the qt tank and rising him seems to be in my near future. Yay

Ok, he developed red patches near his tail, fortunately he is now in a 10 Gal QT tank and being dosed with Ekto-marine for a broad spectrum of coverage as well as slime coat repairer. I put 1 Tsp. of the ekto-marine powder for the 10 gal aquarium, anyone know the measurements (they're in Mg on the box) silly euros
 might need to up the dosage but I'm not too sure on the conversion factors.help ?

1 milligram = 0.000 035 273 961 95 ounce. Seriously.

And thats for MASS measurements, not volume. It's pretty hard to convert a weight measure to a volume.
I use this little free program for converting anything to almost anything else. Its great http://joshmadison.com/article/convert-for-windows/

Johnny you had me scared for a minute there ... I found a rough conversion from grams to Tsp. and it came out to 2.6 Tsp for a 10 gal aquarium. so I'm a little low, but I'm going to leave it where it sits for now and see what happens. When you treat a fish for a bacterial infection (I think that's what it is, red spots and all) how long do they usually take to shoe signs of improvement ?

Calculator doesn't go over that far
 ? But really, I don't see how you can convert mg to tsp without knowing the density of the product. One tsp of feathers is quite different than one tsp of lead. How many mg per gallon does this stuff say to use? What you really need, to be exact, is a scale. Perhaps a fine precision one, at that, depending on your dosage requirements. JMO.
