Would you like that dress in VELVET

K, clown covered in "dust" and breathing heavy.....how can this be? He has Velvet...Ken and Linny came by last night to take a look at him and he looks like crap..so does my tank according to Ken...I'm leaving too much algae behind....soooooo out comes the clown, into a Q tank and treat with Copper and lots of O2 in the system, and the big tank; all the rocks out and scrubbed...all walls scrubbed...and the gravel messed right up and around so all the debris is moved out...have to do daily to get it all gone...too much crud.....re landscape and all is good. It actually looks absolutely amazing...now I realize that I was leaving too much algae behind and yup it could be part of what started the whole Velvet thing...oh yah did I mention that it is rarely ever curable easily and usually your fish die? YAH...crap. The wrasse is doing really well though...so lets hope that maybe we will end up with a couple of fish and then add to it in a couple of weeks...oh yah, UV Sterilizer to go on tonight too! UGH I guess tomorrow we will be cleaning up the 65 hex!
