zoas make a great starter IMO. They are very hardy and can be had in about every color under the sun.

what lights are you using?

I am parshal to mushrooms. People seem to find them troublsome because they proliferate rapidly, especially green ones. I don't care if they cover my whole tank. Red, Blue, Green, Green striped, Maroon, polk-a-dotted ones, you name it. I haven't gotten into ricordia yet but man I can't wait.

Hey Chris, I found both of my lost rics when I moved. They were close to perishing but are coming back nicely. I'll trade you for a shroom. Tawnya loves shrooms too.

If you feel that the disease is parasitic, you might want to try a freshwater dip. It has been a long time since I have had ich but I used it on the regular white spotted ich quite succsessfully.
