Thanks Mike.

The only reason I worry is because I've had some bad luck with new fish, they always seem to croak, no matter what I do. So I'm pleased things are looking up is all!

Nevermind I just took a look and I see 2 ick spots near the gill.

Guess my house will be stinking like Garlic for the next couple weeks.

Sorry to hear about the ich. I got a coral beauty from OA in Calgary about a month ago and it had ich. I had some major problems. I lost some nice fish. Set up a QT and do the treatments. Let the tank go fallow. I regret not doing the same. Please learn from my mistakes as those flames are beautiful fish.

Good luck.
Mike

Update? (for all of those who care)

Still alive.. eating like a pig. Cross your fingers for me.... I am going to continue daily garlic feedings and frequent water changes until I feel things are back to normal.

*edit* Should have noted. The fish still shows some ick spots. But I haven't seen any more than two at a time. I am hoping that continuous garlic feedings and great water paramaters clear things up. It's the only fish showing signs of ick. So let's just hope it's that "newly acclimated" ick that goes away within a few days.

Definately keep the updates coming. As soon as I feel my tank is established enough, a flame angel is absolutely going to be my center piece fish! Any info as how to keep these guys will be more than helpful!

I'll be sure to keep updating... the ick problem however... I shouldn't have it to begin with and I know I should have a QT set up. It's been crossing my mind to find just a 10g at least and stick on the floor in my room to QT, we'll see though. If things worsen, then I may have to set something up.

I'll post back my experiences so far with the fish, it has been nipping. But not at anything important... the only thing he likes is a single frag of digitata, and that's it (for now I know) he hasn't touched any of my other digitata though haha ...

I have an 8 gallon tank (i believe) that you can just have if you want. It's just taking up space in my house. It literally is just the glass though. No top or anything to go with it.

I guess it's not that big of a deal if he's eating that piece of digitata as long as it isn't your favorite!
