Caper

Thanks jolliolli and Caryl Caper

Can't help with the floor stuff...but thought I'd just say HI...haven't seen you in awhile! Caper

That is neat! Caper

Awesome pics Reef, are you a photographer????? In your post Nov 25, what are the fish in (counting single pics of fish as one!)4, 7, and 10? Caper

sub.z...sorry about loosing your pleco. Any ideas yet as to what could have happened? Caper

Wow, that is a pretty fish Caper

Very nice job indeed Was this done to make a playing field for Bud? :lol: Ah, where is the bench, what I see is the table and your countertops :-? Caper

Congrats on baby number 2...what is your first boy/girl...age? Caper

By the way, thanks evil on the suggestion re: how much water to remove Still some flashing going on, not as much. Still no other "visible" symptoms. However, I was wondering if it was the increase in the ammonia that was the cause (which is back to 0) is it possible that IF that is what was causing the irritation that it make take a couple of days for the flashing to stop? If you know what I mean, ammonia caused irritation, ammonia back to 0...but could take a couple of days for whatever nasties is did to the fish to "heal" so to speak?? Caper

Thanks for the info Fmxmatt Caper

Very nice pics folks Caper

That is awesome...not only beautiful but very soothing and relaxing...thanks for sharing with us Reef The 2 fish that are by the clams, I don't remember what they are called, this is the first time I think I've seen them move...almost as if they are walking. Caper

Thanks Reef...they are pretty, never saw pretty worms before Caper

Glad to hear he showed up :bounce: :bounce: But since he did, in my opinion he must have been playing hide and seek :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: and he was always one step ahead of you :lol: :lol: :lol: Caper

What a cute kitty, what's his/her name Oscarboy? Did he cut off all his whiskers? Caper

CONGRATULATIONS :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: The slideshows were beautiful! Ah, where is AU? The beach was awesome Caper

Remember when they used to have the "mood" rings that were supposed to change color with your mood :lol: Now, this is different "mood" fishies :lol: :lol: :lol: Caper

How did you know it was gill flukes? That's what I'm always scared because from what I understand you can't see them. Other than the flashing, no other noticable symptoms. Caper

Reef the one that RTBS asked if you had for sale. Shoot don't know how to describe them, but the little flower looking things yellow, blue...are they growing on the beige thing (what is is) as part of it...or are they something different and just sitting on the beige thing. OH MY GOSH...sorry so confusing :oops: BTW nice pics as usual. Caper

That is hilarious :lol: :lol: A couple of questions, the clowns that I've seen so far all have had an anenome (spelled wrong!). So I'm guessin the torch coral is something different all together? Soooo, does mean they don't have to have an anenome? As a rule, do clowns stray far from their "home" whether and anenome or coral? Caper

Thanks Ian...hate the metric system :oops: Caper

jolliolli, their gills don't appear to be red that I can see and they are not hanging out near the top of tank. Checked yesterday and today the ammonia is back to 0. Still notice some flashing last night but not as much. So I'll keep an eye on them to see if it stops, well most of it anyway as I understand some flashing is normal however what they were doing was not! What I think is strange is that I haven't seen the red eye tetras flashing! I'd say the increase in the ammonia was due to overfeeding. I usually feed twice a day and try to time it to roughly what they'll eat in 2 minutes. But obviously still too much. So I'm going to try just feeding them once a day for awhile to see what happens. Besides when I feed them in the evening they don't see to be as interested. Caper

Oh good sounds like the source of the problem has been found! Keep us updated. Caper

Keep us updated to see if their "friendship" continues:) Caper
