Who Gives A Fish Forums

It depends on the type, there are a few different parasitic varieties of marine whitespot. Maybe the name you're thinking of is Oodinium or Amyloodinium - either way, the treatment is the same. You'd need to do a QT, and you've got two options: hyposalinity at 1.009sg, or copper at 0.20-0.30ppm ...

I'm familiar with marine ich, and I was curious about the specific term when I saw your topic. I'm pretty sure it's got a distinct name... I just can't put my finger on it right now. I'll probably be up late trying to figure it out, anyone else know what I'm talking about?

Alternatively, you could try searching online for some great resources. There's a wealth of information out there, and some fantastic communities dedicated to African cichlids.

In the UK, we actually refer to them as 'Aussie Yellow Tipped Gold'. To keep the colour looking its best, I've found it's best to keep the lighting and flow on the lower side.

I can only draw parallels with the behaviour of fish I've personally kept. Unfortunately, many of the ones you've inquired about aren't even available in my region, so I'm afraid I won't be much help.

I've had my elegance coral for over two years now and it's been doing great, I've never had any issues with it.

ben since u got ur pLione taken away is it true that brent got u in trouble? btw hows my purple firtideflow doin?


I'm a bit lost here - how does this conversation about Ben, pLione and a purple firtideflow relate to "Reefs & Marines"? I'm going to close this thread due to off-topic discussion ...

I've got a trio of gonioporas - red, green, and purple - and they're all doing pretty well, especially that purple one. I did notice a change in the red one, though. It started when I began dosing vodka. The polyps were really retracted and didn't look too great. Stopped the vodka and decided to ...
