Hi I was wondering if hypo had any bad affects on the more delicate anthias species of fish? I ask because i have a sunburst that is about to go through hypo and i want to know its safe for him hes a little guy eating great though twice daily
 
Haven't noticed any particular species or family of fish that don't do well in hypo other than sharks and rayfish. Just use an accurate refractometer, check the pH each day and buffer as needed. When it is time to raise the salinity again go slow, a couple of points a day. Watch the ammonia if your Qtank is not cycled.

thanks terry, i will be checking the ph daily what would you recommend to raise it ? the 8.3 ph balance powder? or do you have something easier?
