| That's the same UVS that I have on the 28 Bowfront that my EBs are growing out in. I've had it since last November, and have had no problems. Sorry to hear about the Ich outbreak. What temp do you have them at?

| You might want to bump it up to about 82 to 84. That will speed up the life cycle of the parasite and allow the UVS and the medicine to get rid of it quicker. Good luck.

| Well, good news, the EBJD's are doing great the one never showed any ICH symptons the other was covered. The one who was covered has maybe one or two spots still on him. I decided to add 2 tsp of salt on top of the meds...seemed to work out great. They are both doing great now...I think the two I have are going to get big strong and healthy...The only thing is, is that they keep picking off my BN plecos...I am down to three or four. _________________ "There he goes - one of God's own prototypes - a high powered mutant of some kind never even considered for mass production.

| Glad to hear he's doing better. I had to separate my two last night. The bigger one seems to have paired up with the Gold Morph female, and they both decided to kick the smaller EB's butt. The smaller one is now in the 45 gal. grow out tank with the smaller Golds. He seems to like it, since he's now the biggest and gets to chase everyone else.

| Lol....From what I have read it is said they are a bit less aggressive abd skittish but the ones i have seem just like any other JD I have ever had at that size. _________________ "There he goes - one of God's own prototypes - a high powered mutant of some kind never even considered for mass production.
