today i tested the water
amonia 0
nitrite 0
nitrate 5
fishes have gained some appetite
they are looking little more happy then few days back
i think my tank is improving
no sign of ich yet
maybe ich was false alert
i need to wait and watch
puffer and anemone maybe a bad combination
but they will adapt fairly quickly or it will be my luck
i am trying my best to secure these animals as possiblea as i can

but as wise says only fools rush in but i cant help falling in love

I still would not risk the anemone and puffer combination.

Just becuase you do not see the fish with white spots does NOT mean that the fish do not have ich. in fact with the hyposalinity method the white dots disappear in a day or two but you need to treat for 4 weeks to fully cure.

Fish will not always have the white spots. There is a life cycle for ich and the spots only last about a week. Each time the spots come back there will be more and more until the fish can no longer survive. Please read up on the life cycle of ich. They live in their free floating form for up to 4 weeks. Some say they can life without a host for 6 weeks. I wouldn't be conserned with any furture coral or fish purchase until you cure ich. You must act quickly with ich....

They Are Not Eating

My Anemone Are Not Eating
They Puke It Outside
I Tried Shrimps,worms Cube
Nothing Is Working
Should I Wait For More Time To Let Them Settle First
Will They Be Ok Without Food
As I Am Not Dosing Them With Planktonic Food Etc

You should just lower your salt like everyone said.. 99% of the meds out there dont work.. especailly in 24hrs! Try feeding the anemone's pieces of silversides.. I really doubt they are going to make it.. Touch their tenticles and see if they feel sticky at all..

quaddity- i was starting to get that feeling too.

Good luck with that ich medication. If it works then please post a report here because I have not found an ich treatment that works for salt/fresh water except the natural methods; hyposalinity for saltwater, and use of salt in FW tank for FW ich.

Medication Failed!!!

you were right guys
medication failed
becouse it killed the puffer last night
i saw her body today morning
and the wrasse
she jumped outside the tank somehow and killed herself
this is just becouse of the overdose of medication i think
i used the medication as written on the bottle
5 ml for 10 liters
i used 10 ml
it made the water very blue
when i came back from the college
the fishes were very stressed(DOMINO,YELLOW TAIL,BLUE DAMSHEL)
however now i have transfered them back into the main tank
just to save their life
medication made even more mess
the fishes were alright and fighting the ich BEFORE I TRANSFERED THEM TO HOSPITAL TANK
eating food nicely
they were realy happy
i feel realy sad for puffer
she was really cute
i lost two fishes on this saturday
bad day for my hobby
lets see what happen next
posting some pics of water which i added fishes too
and removed some rocks also from the tank
:mad:
