    Oxolinic Acid

    I’ve read Mike Paletta’s tissue necrosis article with interest because I believe I am dealing with the same issue. I don’t have access to Cipro; however, oxolinic acid is supposed to be a viable substitute, but I can’t find any dosing information. Anyone have experience with this?

    Black bugs?

    Acro Tissue Recession

    I have a relatively new tank of 3 months. I started with seeded seachem matrix and dry rock, it’s bare bottom too. The tank cycled fast and I put some “test” corals in at around week 3. Things were good, growth was almost nonexistent, but colors were good. Slowly some of the acros started...
