Years ago, pre-internet, I fed a lionfish on a diet of only feeder goldfish and it lived for 18 years. I didn't know any better and got lucky -- I wouldnt recommend that diet now.

I had one for 2 weeks before I came home and found it had jumped out of the tank. Showed no aggression, and actually got picked on by my foxface a bit. I'd probably go larger.

It could only have been my foxface, I guess. I'm baffled as to why it jumped, and I'm even more baffled at how it managed to snake through the narrow opening I left in covering. I'm now making the...

Follow the dosing instructions -- chleated needs a higher dose. That being said, keep a close eye on your boxfish. If it appears like the copper is really stressing it, you can reduce the levels...

I would not do 50% water changes every day. First, it will not remove the ich completely and second, such massive water changes will be very stressful for the fish.
