I HAVE ZOO's

[raskal311]

since it came from your fuge and may have been upside down with no light for awhile it could take them 2-3 weeks to open.

yea i think they were upside down when i found them... so does that mean still do the FW dip or scratch that idea then?

 

[raskal311]

I would only do a dip if I see fungus or some kind of bug on it.

 

[salt e]

nope... no fungus or bugs...
so i guess now im playing the waiting game huh =/

I WOULD LIKE TO REPORT THAT....NOTHING HAS CHANGED... keep in mind i have NO EXPERENCE with Zoas... what color should they be to show if they are healthy or for that fact even alive... they have light, they have water flow... but they have done nothing... there current color is gray... not dark gray...not light gray...just Gray.

 

[raskal311]

can you post a picture of them?

looking for my GF's digi camera... might be a while... but i will try...umm...for starters... HOW DO I POST A PIC... do i have to host it from photo bucket then bring the tag? just wondering cause im going to start on my gallery today (not like that will be anything special LMAO)

on the zoo's: I suggest Mucho's zoo dip (if you can get them out easily) , then just give them good light and moderate flow. Also, gray is a perfectly fine color for zoos that are closed. Then just keep and eye on them so make sure nothing is aggravating them.

On the pics, yes, upload to photobucket and then copy/paste the contents of the "IMG" dialog box. I would not go through the trouble of populating your RC gallery: PB resizes for you , and enables bigger images. If you want to share, just start a thread and link in your images.

Good luck!

Yes, you are taking it too seriously. Some zoos just don't make it in some tanks, for no reason that anyone can discern. They can be right next to other zoos that are thriving, and some just get smaller and smaller and gradually fade away.
