Ok, my 75 gallon tank is 4 months old and actually looking pretty good, didn't have an RO/DI unit at the time so started it with declorinated city water, but now use R0/DI water, went thru a bad algea stage(dark green hair) but now things are going good with it and all inhabitants seem to be doing great. The 125 has been up for 3 months and of course, i had another post recently about all the brown hair algea, and now ICH !!!!..... noticed in on the blue hippo tang and the flame angel mostly, actually the blue tang may not make it.... I am thinking the 125 may be a great freshwater tank, but I really wanted it to be Saltwater and I was hoping to have corals later on....should i just hang in there ?
