Drastic Measures?
Hi. I’m hoping you can help me. I have a 200 gallon DAS which is approximately 6 months old. It has a salinity of 1.017, a temperature of 70 F, and the ammonia was fine. The tank holds 125 lb of live rock with no substrate surface. I’ve stocked the tank with a Zebra Moray eel, a pair of Clowns, a pair of Butterfly raccoons, an Emperor, a Coral Beauty , Yellow tang, a Flame hawk and a Cuban Hog. The only ones still alive are the Zebra Moray, flame hawk and Cuban Hog, The yellow tang is covered with red blotches. I spoke to my supplier and he told me to douse my tank (using the recommended dosage) with SERA Oodinopur A. From reading the comments on your website it was the wrong thing to medicate the main tank but I did not have a quarantine tank. What should I do now? Some of your comments state that the main tank should remain fallow for at least a month. Does Marine Velvet affect the Zebra Moray eel?
