So, these guys are really holding their cards close. This morning, Cryptocaryon and hints of Brooklynella. Then, for most of the day, the female has moved from the CAVE she’s lived in. She was out and about, mostly hovering above the cave, looking at the back wall & filter intake. No observeable Cryptocaryon, but renewed […]

Sometimes the only right question to ask is “WTF?!” Turned on the lights this morning (folks should know that ambient sunlight wakes up the fishroom much earlier than I do). Waited a few minutes. Offered Spectrum pellets to the Maroons. Saw the female make what I’d call a definitive “look” at the pellets before snubbing […]
Short update – still pulling crazy OT on the project for work today. I really want this project OFF MY PLATE! No external symptoms of anything on either Maroon today. No Brooklynella, Cryptocaryon or Amyloodinium outwardly observable. Both are very “mellow” overall, but no heavy breathing. The fish lack “spunk” though…they are not […]
Taking a break from work..wow…already burned out and again, OT is in the future tonight! But, I can take 10 minutes away to update you all on the status of the Maroons… This morning, I was dealt another disheartening turn of events. I went down before starting my workday and took a look. I think […]
I sent this one out to the experts, but I’m withholding my own thoughts. This is the PNG Saddleback I mentioned earlier when I talked about Formalin dipping “replaceable” fish before going with the Maroons. This Saddleback has been in hyposalinity (1.010) and has had a formalin dip daily for the last 3 days. The […]
Another feeding attempt is met with unenthusiastic response. Fish are still sulking. Another water change is enacted. Formalin dosed. Feeling frustrated.
Early this morning, before leaving for Easter brunch with Renee’s family, I snuck a look @ the Maroon Clowns. To my dismay, it appeared that the female had spots of ICH (Cryptocaryon irritans) on her now? Seriously? Or maybe this is just spots of Velvet (Amyloodinium ocellatus)? At this point, nothing would surprise me, but […]
Just a quick note to followup on my earlier status update. I did the water tests in light of the cloudy water that presented today. pH 8.0. Ammonia, Nitrite & Nitrate at undetectable levels. Removed that carbon bag I forgot about. Rather than trying to pull out any and all residual Formalin to start with […]
Today I went with Jay and Jim and made the trip to the TCMAS Frag Swap to deliver many of the fish I sold to help finance this adventure. Thanks once again for everyone who chipped in on a moment’s notice! Got back, and things are looking OK. Back to work for me…which has been […]
OK, so please see my earlier post for details on how I almost really botched things but in the end, caught a lucky break by thinking not to try something out on the Maroons first 😉 The large “regular” female Maroon went through a 45 minute Formalin Dip (20 drops, or 1 ml, of true […]
