Raj 744-8768 he is in st augustine or the let store in valpark... thats the 2 that I know of... I brought down my equipment through my skybox though

I have seen stuff at that owners place where fish are not even quarantined. He collects them the day before and by the next day he sells them, sick or not. Buy those fish at your own risk. Raj may be a bit more expensive but i get better quality and healthier fish by far. There are a few guys i know who bring in fish and think that quarantine means keeping these fish in a tank just so............. Lots of them refuse to buy the copper meds or antibiotics to treat them prior to selling them. For my money what i spend on fish, i trust raj.

Still eh change the water yet... but what ever I doing works the water parameters still in check... all I did was change filters... I have to get the thing to clean the glass... I saw a preivous post with your tank... damn... hows your tank going?

[HondaB20B]

have a small bit of cyano issues but that's small thing. Might have to do maybe a 75gal water change or 2 back to back and see if that helps. Every once in a while that happens.

For those of you that has an aptasia outbreak that you cant get rid off. There are three things that you can try other than chemicals. You can try peppermint shrimp (hit or miss), copperband butterfly fish or the matted filefish. Since I could not put a copperband in my tank due to the other tankmates (my 4 big tangs) of similar size, shape and color (he would be lucky if he survived an hour), I took the liberty instead of buying a small matted filefish about 1 1/2 mths ago to eradicate the possibly 2-300 aptasia of numerous sizes in my main display which has been stinging my corals. I never saw him eating any, but today we realized that slowly but surely, aptasia are just disappearing. It is a great relief to know now that he is doing a good job of killing off this pest. He is not the most colorful, or the prettiest of fish or does he swim around all over the tank, but he is unique in his own little way. Depends on his background, he changes color in different shades of camo. Different shades of browns, greys and greens. Something you can look into. Sometimes Raj will get one ever so often. I was lucky I caught a glimse of that one while browsing through because they just float there and blend in. Just thought I would share this info.

Went snorkeling in scotland bay today... the reef looks horrible but the abundance of fish was breathtaking... butterflies, angels, saw sumn thst looks like fire fish, damsels, spiney puffers, surgens... cpl red fish and a grouper...
Im wondering if I cld catch some and place them in a tank... but how would you train them to eat pillets or flakes

Its all in luck................... I have seen raj with French angels from down the islands and maybe 1 in 3 might start to eat pellets. He might bring wrasses and all might eat. He has his secrets. The bad thing is that all those wild caught fish come with parasites that you need to be careful. Raj treats his wild caught fish with copper before placing them in his system.
And yes, there is a few small reefs in and around Scotland bay...........has nice seahorses on one particular reef. You have to remember that the abundance of fish there is because its a big nursery for small fishes. Even barracudas and sharks go into there to breed

[dgobo]

Hmm blows dust off of mask and fins, when we going fellas. I buying fuel, who has the boat

[greenlime100]

Some harder times....

[kyhamil]

Holy mother of grave yard... glad to see you recovered...
Ive never seen sea horses there or a shark... and starfish making a comeback... they in abundance... saw a cpl huge angle fish of different types id look them up and say what I saw...

[HondaB20B]

I have seen French angels, queen angels, rock beauty and gray angel. you also see lots of four eye butterflyfish and blue Caribbean tangs. All these fish use Scotland bay as a nursery. Nurse sharks love to go up in there to release their pups.

[dgobo]

Catch a queen & rock angel for me or else yuh lie. I need proof.
