got a new purple haddoni - concerned

[tassod]

IMHO the Princess cup will kill your animal

Keep posting and good luck

Hey, i notice you are from Montreal, i was born and raised there! Moved to IL in 1999. What area in Mtl are you in?

 

[tassod]

Yes he seems to be doing a lot better so i am very encouraged!

 

[OrionN]

He does look a lot better. Good luck with him.

 

[OrionN]

He is better. Please continue to update. Any of your other Haddoni show any problem? Observer them closely.

 

[tassod]

Looks like he is doing even better today. My other haddoni's are doing great and show no symptoms of anything being wrong. Can someone tell me why he has all this stringy type stuff behind him. I siphoned up a bunch of it yesterday during water change and i just see more of it today.

 

[GothBoy]

I know nothing about anemones at all, other than aiptasia (cough), but it looks like the slime many soft corals produce to clean their surface of contaminants. Could it be doing that?

 

[OrionN]

that is just mucus strands that isn't an indication of any problem. don't worry about it. Just remove any strand and solid with water change.

He does look great. I would treat him for 7 days before bring him back to DT. Why seven days? Doctor just pull 7 days out of the air, seem reasonable. Addition to this is there is another thread where one of the Gigantea was treated for 5 days, everything looks great but he relapsed and did not make it.

Ok sounds good, and just to clarify, I am to dose for 7 days correct?

 

[OrionN]

Yes 7 days, as long as he looks well for at least the last 3 days.

Stringy stuff just looks like the mucus from the foot. I wouldn't worry about it. Nem looks much better.

Hey,

In fact, i am from Laval near MTL...

Nice to meet you !

 

[worm5406]

Good luck I am headed on vacation. I want to see how this turns out, but will have sporadic internet.

Hope it keeps recovering, it is a very pretty specimen.
Good luck to you!

 

[tassod]

Thanks everyone for the support! If it wasn't for the members of RC, I definitely would not have the success I am having to date, this forum is just awesome.:beer: The nem continues to do well, here is a pic of him again this morning:



Treatment should be complete by Monday night and I can return him to the DT on Tuesday if all continues well. He seems to like the place he is in right now in the HT as he's firmly attached to the bottom glass.

Same here....I grew up in Cartierville and lived very near the Lachapelle bridge. I also have a sister and brother that live in Ste Dorothee Laval. Small world indeed.

 

[xtlosx]

Looks a LOT better.. Think you'll be fine as long as he keeps improving from here.

 

[tassod]

Here are today's pics on his progress, looks pretty good to me.

Morning pic:


This afternoon:


He actually moved today a little bit to the left, the Disney mug got close to him somehow and he actually moved away from it...go figure :lmao:

 

[hobogato]

looking good!

 

[OrionN]

Consider keep it 2 or 3 days without treatment before put him back. Ofcourse this is to protect your two very nice anemones in your tanks
