    Hi I have just noticed some mucus looking stuff hanging off my rocks and clinging to some things. I originally set up a 29 gallon JBJ about 11 months ago and everything was going great and then it sprung a leak. I was able to manage it long enough to get a new tank, a 60 gallon ProStar.

    My yellow tang, that I have had for about 4 years now, is in distress. Red patches appeared on it back in December so I treated it with Seachem Metroplex for about 2-3 weeks and things cleared up. Last week I ran carbon and did a water change thinking it was cured. Today the red patches...
