SoCal Reefer Posted March 11, 2007 Share Posted March 11, 2007 I have a sixline that keeps getting ich. My question is will a cleaner shrimp do what its name says and clean my sixline and eat its ich? Thanks SCR Link to comment
MGXsport Posted March 11, 2007 Share Posted March 11, 2007 cleaner shrimp in the aquarium realm rarely do their job. Link to comment
sleepy Posted March 11, 2007 Share Posted March 11, 2007 Not completely, but at night while your fish are sleeping- the cleaners do sometimes help. Link to comment
SoCal Reefer Posted March 11, 2007 Author Share Posted March 11, 2007 hmmm well getting my sixline into a quarintine wont happen so this is my best option i guess Link to comment
Gerber77 Posted March 11, 2007 Share Posted March 11, 2007 SCR, how is the car situation? Link to comment
civicsit Posted March 11, 2007 Share Posted March 11, 2007 I had a cleaner in my tank. When my clown got ich, so did my sixline. But the next day, my sixline was ich free. My clown ended up dieing. I have never seen my sixline actually get cleaned, so I'm not sure if that's what it was. I just got a Starry Blenny yesterday, and my shrimp has already been cleaning him multiple times. Esp. in the mouth. Link to comment
djchristone Posted March 14, 2007 Share Posted March 14, 2007 most nano fish are too jittery to ever let anything clean them. usually when you think clean fish, you're thinking big fish like tangs and such Link to comment
