Yesterday morning, i tried to rinse both tank with freshwater, after that place them in a tupperware with small holes and put freshwater inside, and place the tupperware into the tank , after a few minutes release them, one of them unable to survive and another swim to the LR and hide. In the late evening, the only survive tank condition getting abit better, but i still tried out water change to improve it, and tried to reduce the salinity a bit lower than the previous water salinity (from 1.023 ppt to 1.022 ppt). Today, the tang back to normal, but still got a bit white spot left.

The freshwater rinse and dip, i read it from website seems like kind of useful. And lowering the salinity, is also a way to cure the white spot (Marine Ich). Hope i'm not wrong.

I can't believe my hermit crab just ate my blue tang , which like to hide at the live rock at night !!

All the fishes in my tank just died, i'm not sure what happen. From my analysis, maybe is the algae blenny just killed and ate by my hermit crab, then follow by my half dead tang and then my both clown attacked by white spots and died.

Nope, just fishes. Cause still waiting for pipes to set up my chiller and the fishes to be more stable in tank, but accident happen. Have to start all over again, now just left the hermit crab and a snail in my tank.

I made a 90% water change, and rinse the live rock, bcuz there is still got a hermit crab and snail in the tank.

If i would like to put seahorses in my tank, what fish are recommended to mix with them ? From what i read, clown and tang not suitable to mix with seahorse, because seahorse is slow eater, and clown and tang are fast swimmer, food will finished before the seahorse eat, and cause seahorse starve to dead, is there any fishes can mix with seahorse ?

Just bought a Basslets & Assessors fish type, not sure it belong to which group ( yellow body with purple cap) and a firefish goby. The goby just died after a day, it body half gone again, could it being attack by Basslets & Assessors fish type ?

How to breed or produce amphipods and copepods in marine tank ? Been searching for a while, but the result i got was require a separate tank. Is it any possible way to make it in the same tank i have ?

May i know how is a dead clam looks like. I bought 1 clam for six months ago, it still looked fine in yesterday morning, after i came back from work, the muscles in the clam shrunk in the shell and the clam shell wide open and did not make any movement when i on off the light ( which usually it will close it shell ).
