good point there trinity i always like to run a new tank for a while before putting any live critters in. the down side for the seller is they always get left behind something that no one wants.
-
dripping straight on the eyes seems a bit extreme. i've only ever treated fancy gold fish with cotton eye and i use white spot cure and melafix together which works every time. salt would also work just takes a longer and i usually use the salt dip method rather than treating the whole tank with salt. hope that helps

sometimes they get grey patches as signs of stress. are there plenty of spots that he can hide?
-
yep seems like a lot of marine tanks for sale these days on trademe. i am hoping their just all up grading

algaefix worked for me but very strong chemical or u can to go the natural way use barley straw or barley straw extract.

i think they look stunning and would love some but doubt we'll ever get them in NZ and even if we do it would be some ridiculous price

WOW 40 watt that's a monster of a UV-C system. i run a tiny 9watt on my 8000 litre pond. its crystal clear most of the time but could do with a bigger one though.
-
nice one Ira [took me a second to get it] that's hilarious i couldn't stop laughing :lol: :lol: :lol:
-
i am a huge fan of UV-C systems and its recommended 2 watt per 1000 litre and ur need to change the bulb every year and the bulbs starts from $70 upwards. hope that helps.

yeah from what he says its just "Paratya curvirostris" the ones u can get in the local streams as he supposedly breed them and raise them up in full strength sea water first. Ghost shrimps [Thalassinidea] is totally fresh water. also in the Q&A he said they range from 20 to 25mm so all he has is males? the sex is determined by their age and size.
