The Puffer Forum

that's what I'm worried about but I have not lost any polyps yet. It seems to me that if there were a lot more or even if just that 1 was still in therem, I would have lost at least one polyp by now. All the others are opening fine, BTW. thanks...

i plan to thanks....

I appreciate all your help. How long does it take for a nudi to eat a zoo, let's say 1 polyp...

yes i do , definitely but that is the only time I have seen it. That picture was taken before I did the FW dip with VC. And at that time I had not noticed the nudi in the pic so for all I know it was part of the stuff that I shook off when I did the first dip...

nope, gave them a FW iodine dip, but nothing fell off. Just on a whim yesterday when I thought it was just zoo pox and after that pic was taken, I did dip them in a ro/di with some VC so it may have fallen off then, but didn't know i was looking for it back then. some stuff did come off in that dip....

yeah i think i got the eggs but not the nudi. I have looked at all my zoas and palys and no sign. I have QT'd and am getting ready to do the dip now. Here is what I saw originally: http://i199.photobucket.com/albums/aa41/Skidazl/zoonudi.jpg http://i199.photobucket.com/albums/aa41/Skidazl/zooeggs.jpg

thanks went over it with a toothbrush again this morning, i was more forceful. I think i have a nudi so I am going to do an iodine dip tonight...

Yes I have, thank you, but what I see on mine doesn't seem to be "attached" to the zoos like in that pic. I'm just nervous to dip them if not necessary. But I just want to catch it if it is before it spreads. Neither of my other zoos are affected and from what I understand, my palys won't ...

it's really hard to tell if it's detritus or pox with them all closed up now, but i brushed them off but only seem to have gotten the tops, a bit afraid to give too much pressure, i guess... here' the new pics: http://i199.photobucket.com/albums/aa41/Skidazl/zoopox4.jpg http://i199.photobucket.com/a...

thanks give me a minute and i'll have those for you...

thank you puffer, I was waiting to hear a reply about the calcium ascorbate before I tried it. So it sounds like what I have will work. I'll go very slowly though and watch my ph very closely. I'll start tonight for that matter. So I should start with 5 ppm, you said right? That would be just under ...

Hi haven't heard anything back, but thought I would try again. I have a new question.

Is Vitamin C a way to treat Zoo Pox? I think I have them but have not been able to find a definitive answer..


thanks...

Thank you so much for your reply.. First off, with no3 I actually meant nitrate and not nitrite, but my nitrite and amm are 0, sorry to scare you. As far as my tank goes, I have 110 lbs of LR plus some rubble in the sump. It's been up and running now for 8 years. It was somewhat neglected for the la...

I'm considering dosing VC to help with my zoos/palys.. I have some nukes which have for the mostly turned brown and some Blue Eye Girls which are not as bright as when I got them. I have other zoos/palys too, but they are fine. First off, I have heard that dosing VC can help this? My no3 is 25 and m...
