Re: dyeing fish Thanks waterlogged. Yes I have tried another test kit and also had my LPS check the water. All is ok with the water. What does the garlic do? Do I place it in the tank or my sump? I did read up on ich and the type of fish I had are very prone to ich. How ever, it is very strange how all the original I had are now acting normal and NOT hiding. Maybe there was some kind of attach I did not see. I have to clean out the QT since I placed the fish in there that died. The foxface was the one covered with what looked liked ich or, as yo mentioned velvit. I was also thinking that maybe I got a bad patch of water from the LPS. They get it direct from the ocean. I just finished insatlling an RO/DI system, just about 30 minutes ago. I checked the water and much to my surprise all parameters are great except for the ammonia which was off the chart. I thought the RO/DI system would give me as close to 100% acceptable water. Do I have add an ammonia remover even with a DI/RO system? I nany case, I am planning on a water change this weekend.
