    Excellent information. We as stewards need to be more rigorous in our preparation and treatment of our fish as opposed to impulse buying and tossing them in. Videos like this help break down the knowledge barriers to doing just that. Thanks from Rhode Island

    If these diseases get into your display tank, can you medicate the whole display without destroying the ecology of the tank? And how would we do that?

    • @PoloReef
      @PoloReef  6 місяців тому

      complicated question. Huge Uv 4000 W allows me to manage also !! Depends on disease or meds. ! You can Prazi a reef and use certain antibiotics but no great answer to ick and velvet other than hydrogen peroxide manage water column and peroxide salts or feeding meds to fish some help some dont and cranking up ozone and changing uv bulbs. Obviously copper and chloroquine will kill coral. !

    • @zachhoetzel5034
      @zachhoetzel5034 6 місяців тому

      Thanks so much for your reply Andrew.
      So if you were to add these medications to a new reef set up that hasn't had corals added yet, would the long term residuals of those medications stick around and harm future coral input? Also, if you were to remove all the fish to a quarantine for a month, would the disease stick around in the tank system and just reinfest the fish with disease when they are returned to the tank?@@PoloReef

    • @opethmike
      @opethmike 6 місяців тому

      @@zachhoetzel5034yes you can remove the fish and treat in a separate tank. The display will need to remain fish free, entirely so, for at least six weeks for ich. I think velvet is the same. Uronema won’t go away

    @gavrad7060 6 місяців тому

    Great info as always. Love the videos!
    When you mention prime the bag, I have always thought about this BUT I was under the impression that some sellers ship with copper in the bag which prime & copper mixed are toxic at certain levels. Is that true or false ?

    • @PoloReef
      @PoloReef  6 місяців тому

      its on next video !! this warning and other bag opening tricks !! and where prime is safe and where its a no no.

    • @PoloReef
      @PoloReef  6 місяців тому

      its one of these things that i forgot in first video. we were thinking of pulling dn and talking about bag opening tricks so prime is not needed and anything but copper power risk. !
