Freshwater dip
« on: March 04, 2011, 21:00:55 »
How long and how often can you freshwater dip? I bought a yellow tang yesterday and it had ich last night. I dipped it for 3 min today but now it looks worse. I saved a bad looking clown by dipping but i killed a powder blue and blue hippo doing this but i waited 2 weeks to dip them. I also bought a tiger watchman goby, got him home and noticed half his tail was gone and today the whole tail is gone. Can i do anything for him?

What are your tank parameters, looks like you have some diatoms or cyano on your sand.  Make sure your water is top quality when dealing with sick fish

Electrical Engineers do it on impulse, with faster rise times, with more power, and less resistance at higher frequencies, without shorts, until it Hertz
