SLOreefer Posted May 13, 2002 Share Posted May 13, 2002 its pretty normal for them just to pick a spot and swim right around it. mine swims only near his powerhead. yours sounds fine other than the ich. id take care of that soon. Link to comment

My Alife 7 Posted May 16, 2002 Share Posted May 16, 2002 d*mn, that's crazy... sorry to hear that. Never heard of a skunk eating a peppermint shrimp before... Link to comment
pulpsmack Posted May 16, 2002 Share Posted May 16, 2002 Sounds like signs of the apocalypse... That is a very uncommon occurance, but the best bet for shrimp is to keep them within their own species (only if communal) or singly. Sorry to hear that though. Meanwhile I strongly urge you NOT to add another fish into that tank if you suspect that the clown had ich. I would wait for a fulkl month before trying your luck again, and next time you might consider a quarantine tank so that you don't have to wait another month should your second attempt fail. While you are waiting for your fish you may still add inverts if your tank is properly set up for them. Link to comment
My Alife 7 Posted May 16, 2002 Share Posted May 16, 2002 Hey Cam, Didn't you have a damsel fish with ich die a week previous to you adding the clownfish? My first damsel I had, had ich and when it died, I waited a month before adding a new fish to the tank.. Link to comment
