[quote author=birdlady link=board=ASAP;num=1107975704;start=0#2 date=02/09/05 at 23:31:50]What about crankin the heat or lowering it to an extreme? *Is there anything else in the tank that would suffer from that?  [/quote]
Its not a thing to do, you will kill everythin from your live rocks! If there are still small, buy some peppermint shrimp as everyone mentionned or a copperband butterfly but keep in mind that the copperband is not completely reef safe. You can use Joe's juice, apparently, its working well, use them on big one, the small one will get eaten by the peppermint of the butterfly

nope.....the reef is doomed.....after HUNDREDS of injections i didnt even make a dent in thier population growth. I used almost 2 bottles of Stop Aiptasia and about 2 dozen good sized peppermint shrimp after the PH recovered. I've decided to leave it a fish tank with some condy anem. and alot of inverts....i also just got word the bio. building is to be remodled this coming semester. So ill be shifting the goal of my IS and making a user manual....and restart the tank when i return. Itll be gutted and rebuilt from the ground up. _________ Yes, tiny has an 11" legspan...... | |
