Dramad1 Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 Sweet new clown. I have a frostbite morph as well, bandit occelaris. Bought a pair and the smaller one came up missing a few days later with no signs of where he went. Where did you pick yours up at? Pic of mine. They look the same ish Link to comment
Smithjm5 Posted June 14, 2014 Author Share Posted June 14, 2014 Thanks! They are some sweet looking fish, sorry to hear yours went missing. I got mine from my LFS (Chester Aquaria) and I think they said he came from sustainable aquatics. Link to comment
Smithjm5 Posted June 16, 2014 Author Share Posted June 16, 2014 So i'll be getting a new light in the coming week, I wan't something controllable and thought about getting a nano box duo but Jordan from the forums is going to hook me up with his Maxspect razer Here's some pics from when he had it up on his tank... Link to comment
Smithjm5 Posted June 23, 2014 Author Share Posted June 23, 2014 Still waiting on the new light, hopefully it will be here by the end of the week! I updated a new FTS on the first page if anyone wants to see, still crappy iPhone pics until I fork out the money for a nice camera so sorry about that haha. I changed the scape up very little on the left side. I just felt it was too bulky so I took out a rock or two, and it gave a nice gave for the fish to swim through. I wanna focus on picking up some kind of Euphyllia next, I'm leaning towards a nice torch coral but might get a hammer we'll have to see what the LFS has this weekend! Also I think I want to get another fish, my nitrates don't even register with my current bioload and doing a 2 gallon water change every 6 or 7 days, i'm thinking I want a firefish but I need to pick up some netting for the middle of the top because I wouldn't trust just the rim to keep one in the tank like the clowns, so that's on my to do list for now! Also one of my blue rics looks like it could split soon it's definitely gotten bigger Best buds Link to comment
Smithjm5 Posted June 25, 2014 Author Share Posted June 25, 2014 So over the past week iv'e been treating my frostbite clown in tank with Prazipro and he hasn't seemed to get any better and he's not eating well now. So I have set up a QT tank i'll be treating both clowns just in case. I'll be using metronidazole, and i'm going to make sure I mix all the foods with garlic. Hopefully this will help, I wish I had a QT set up before I even got fish, so that's a note to everyone, it's definitely a good thing to have for situations like this. The Qt is just a standard 10gallon with aquaclear 50 a koralia nano, and cobalt 50 watt heater. Also do ya'll use some kind of light over your Qt tanks? or just leave it lights out? Hopefully he will pull through....really cool little fish. I'll be sure to keep ya'll updated and any tips are greatly appreciated. Thanks. Link to comment
ChouDawg Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 Sorry to hear about your clown, hopefully it pulls through, for a QT tank you really don't need any light. If you've got a cheap fluorescent strip you can throw on a timer that works or it should be fine just from ambient/room light. Link to comment

Thanks me too, yea I think i'm just going to leave it without the lights for now. So I just got my New (to me) Maxspect razor tonight when I got home from work! The thing is in perfect condition, the only thing is it didn't come with a hanging kit so I have to order one of those before I can use it Here's a few pics anyway tho! it's the 120watt 16k version Link to comment
Nanofreak79 Posted June 27, 2014 Share Posted June 27, 2014 Oh snap, a new razor. I love my razors, very nice choice you made, IMO.

He said that he used up the wire when he had it hung so I was confused and thought he meant I just needed more wire, but it didn't have the hardware for it which is what he meant. But no biggie i'll just order one tomorrow. oooooo sexay Haha, isn't it? So awesome! Link to comment
