On Friday, May 11, I visited the HMNS for my internship. I tested the water in the quarantine tank to see if it matched up with the water that was in the tank upstairs. Even though we put the same water in the tanks, sometimes, one will find different chemicals in them because the rocks release chemicals naturally. Fortunately, both the tank's chemicals matched up. Because of this, we can start treating the quarantine tank with aphasia killer. One can see a giant aphasia on the picture of the rock below. It is the big clearish, white looking thing on the top of the rock. We don't like treating aphasias in a tank with other things because the chemical that treats the aphasia can kill the fish or other animals in that tank. However, in the quarantine tank, nothing that can be killed by the chemical should be living.
