Chet, My Regal Angel had a little of the Lymphocystis growth on his fin. It is viral and you can't really treat it. I believe my cleaner shrimp was able to pluck it off. Good quality food and water...

I wonder if you can bubble CO2 into a small closed container with the fish in it. Mice are commonly euthanized this way (minus the water).

I had the same thing happen after a water change. I'm a bit lax on making sure the water is at a precise temp so I wonder if the temp change (perhaps a hot or cold current) triggered it. Personally,...

Is the 150g going to be in a different location than the 92g?

If it is, from what I have read, the best way to do it is mix up 60ish gallons of new water in your 150, heat it aerate it for a...

They also have to feed very heavily from my understanding because the corals are starving. Seems like the skimmer is removing the food source that is most important to corals.

Do you know the...

Yes I know they take out bacteria and algae. By skimming you are working as an export. Don't bacteria provide food for corals? Don't they provide food for pods and on up the chain until our fish and...

Well this is true for any system, not just complex systems. For example a BB tank with no fuge is probably a very simple biological system compared to one run with refuges, turf scrubbers, and cyptic...

Organics and solids do not evaporate. Water evaporates. When the tide comes back up most of that is redissolved back into the water. I would also imagine a lot of that will get blown further inshore...
