    I just hope it's not too late. The engineers look like Ebola got them bad.

    11/7/14 today I have good news and ok news.
    The good news:

    The DT is back to normal fish health wise. I will continue to dose the DT over the weekend then Monday I will put Carbon and GFO back online along with the refugium.

    The Not so great but OK news:

    One of the Engineers is in ICU due to the disease spreading to one of its gills. I changed the water 10% added a double dose of stress coat. Added a PVC pipe to keep him in and to keep him from floating around and put it facing the glass so I can watch it over the weekend. I rubbed the poor guy for like 20 minutes so it would calm down. My daughters thought I was crazy.

    The other one is just chilling meditating and healing. Looks to be about 80%

    I believe that by adding the pipe and keeping the fish restricted per say I think it won't have to breathe as hard and the stress coat and idk attack will hopefully allow it to bounce back. What are your thoughts?

    I have read everything you are doing, and honestly I don't have anything/advice to add.

    They'll be in my thoughts/prayers that they pull thru
