Ok maybe I am a little overcrowded, do you guys think they will be good for a couple months? I am swithcing to a 55 as soon as I sell my 180g or Feb which ever comes first or should I just go ahead and trade the domino and orange after treatment?
God(or diety of your choice) Grant Me Patience!

You guys were right the garlic did nothing so I am now treating with a product called SeaCure. Has anyone used this before it is a copper treatment. Anyway thanks for your help!
how did the "garlic do nothing"
how did you feed it to your fish, and did you expect it to cure them in two days?
and where are you treating them? in the display tank?

I administered the garlic in two ways, first I soaked thawed brine shrimp in "juice" and also added a little " juice directly to the tank. As for expecting it to work in two days, yes. All of the info I gathered on using garlic claimed that it's effects would be seen in that amount of time or less, maybe had I been a little more patient It may heve rendered good results but I am not comfortable in waiting. I disconnected my pump and overflow seperating my main tank and sump and am treating them in the sump(29g)
I did have another question though. I am using the same AC300 that was running on the sump, will I have to discard the media after copper treatment or can the copper be removed from the media with carbon? I am using only sponges in it and to my notion the sponge material is inert and not going to leech ay copper is this correct.
Pewrhaps after I am a little more seure in my SW knoledge and my tank is more mature, shoould I encounter ich again I will give garlic another chance. I don't think the success stories are fabricated, there is surely something to it!
