    Yep 8' 106 gallon with rock rack so lots of room to swim.I'm running revive because I saw a little marine velvet on the yellow tangs and hippos and I am running metronidazole laced flakes because there is a little bit of ich too.So this should protect them all real well till everything settles.I'm putting in algae sheets everyday at this point.and feeding alot more.I thought my nitrates would shoot up but they havent.Keeping a close eye on them anyway.I am still below the maximum adult inch per gallon ratio.

    well fed fishes = healthier fishes.. I put a mata tang in last week and have been feeding alot just to get his stomach a little fatter.. it was pinched when i got it. also checked my nitrates as I thought a spike was for sure, but still zero. so i guess my skimmer,chaeto and mangroves are doing there jobs. :)

    I'm very happy my biggest baby hippo tang started eating again today.I put the revive in just in the nick of time.Kicked marine velvets ASS!!!All the fish look great and are eating very well.And are way less stressed.
