My qustion is When is Iherb gonna start paying you commission? By the way I'll be placing my order as soon as the 65 is up and running.

For a Quick QT tank all you need is a 5gal bucket or rubbermaid container with a heater, powerhead & light.

Jeff, please explain it to him better.

I think Jeff may still be to busy crying into a pint of Ben & Jerry's over the comment about his Pics yesterday!

LOL, I don't think our lill bottles of VC here & there are making them rich, compared to all the health food stores that order stuff in bulk from them.

That's one way to look at it.

Well I got my Iharb vc today I guess it can not hurt for 13 bucks!!!
One question though currently not running a sump can I just add to my tank? I am getting ready to move and I am just running a HOB skimmer. I put the vc in my Koralis and did an excellant job of dispensing... Just making sure this is okay and since PP is the guru I hope you can answer this...
Thanks in advance!

Ok here is what the colony looks like today what should i do its toally nasty now and stinks.

 

[Pufferpunk]

You could try taking a toothbush dipped in Hydrogen peroxide & see if anything has some substance to it after you brush them off. The dead/melted/stinky ones will just brush off. Otherwise, you should just toss it. Stink=death.

Pufferpunk,

Can you suggest here or point me to a thread discussing specific QT procedures you would recommend for all Zoas before they go in the display? Seems like they have some of their own unique issues. Do you recommend VC while they are in QT? Would you use Furan2 on all Zoas in QT? I'm pretty sure the answer to both is yes. How long and how much for both?

I QT corals in a 10 gallon for 4 weeks before they go in my display, longer if a problem is detected and needs further attention.

 

[Pufferpunk]

I do use higher doses of VC in my QT, than in my main tanks. Mostly since many frags I place in there have been freshly fragged or moved from another tank when newly purchased (stressed). I really don't do much else, unless they start looking poorly or won't open, then they get a Furan or iodine dip.

Thanks Puffer.
