    There seems to have been a right out break lol at first cyano bacteria blew up in the tank! started to cover corals & rock! I actually used a product called Mycosidol. I searched everywhere for advice on this product as its instructions are rubbish but after running the treatment I am left very very impressed. It worked a charm :D

    On top of that I added a juvenile engineer goby/convict blenny from my LFS, 2 days after I had a big out break of Ich!!! Was not impressed. I have quite a collection of fish already & was concerned. Currently in the tank I have
    1 Regal Tang
    1 Yellow Tang
    1 Mimic Tang
    4 Blue Chromis
    1 Bi-colour Pseudochromis
    2 Mating Banggai Cardinals
    3 Baby Banggais (with more in the oven)
    2 Mated Percular Clowns
    1 Pyjama Wrass or Six Line I think they can be called
    1 Mandarin Dragonet
    1 Mother Sailfin Dragonet
    1 Firefish
    1 Copperband Butterfly

    How ever saying that I already dose the tank daily with garlic & have 2 cleaner shrimp & a fire shrimp & I think them combined with the UV steriliser have almost completely eradicated the infection. No losses & no problems :) It has just taken up a lot of time lol :D hopefully now I can move forward & add pictures :D
