Ahhh.... it just ocurred to me I know you!!! lol.. wow you just setup your 150 not too long ago right? How's the frags doing?

Chris

 

[wiszmaster]

Hey chris - yes, your right. I setup the 150 about 4 month ago .. but had a bad case of flatworm ... & even worse (since there is not mucht hat will take care of it) hydroids ... so i figured i'd cook the rock ... then i thought ... man - wouldn't it be nice to just draint he tank, scoop the sand & drill the tank for a CLS ... and then when i had it all out & dry i thought .. HMMNN ... I really want a bigger tank ... .. the rest is now history.


The frags are all doing great! I just sold most to my sister since i tore down the tank ... scott (keinreis) has the stylo .. and a few of my other SPS.

 

[cwegescheide]

Oh my!!! Flat worms!! I hear those things are REALLY BAD! Evidently so huh?

Well good luck the the new one

 

[robthorn]

wrasses of many kinds eat flatworms. radiants possibly, yellow coris possibly, leopards definately.
queen angels eat hydroids.

 

[wiszmaster]

had a yellow wrasse .. didn't like the flatworms ... neither did the six line we tried.
tried a rusty angel ... did great on the hydroids ... ate them for 32 days .. then took a 3-4 day break from chowing them down ... giving them time to regrow @ about 150% ...

 

[robthorn]

leopard wrasses are a gaurantee if you can get one to live. I always kept at least one in every tank. had flatworms once when I had no wrasses. got the wrasses and they vanished.
good luck this time
