All specimens at Strikers Reefing & Co. go through a dedicated procedure catered to each species' needs and may stay at our facility upwards of 2 months before being deemed ready to be photographed and shipped out. Fish here not only have their weight tracked, but have samples routinely taken for microscopy to guarantee a clean specimen prior to becoming available. Upon arrival, specimens receive individual medication baths based on its species and diagnosis. For their first 2 weeks at our facility, fish are transferred into a sterile system every 24 hours alongside baths made up of exclusive medication formulas catered to each species needs. Specimens are transferred using disposable nitrile gloves, nets are avoided. Slime coats and scales are easily damaged with the use of nets. Fenbendazole is administered at proper intervals in baths we have found success with alongside in their diet for a period of 3 weeks to eradicate internal worms, gill & skin flukes resistant to praziquantel, and gastrointestinal parasites. After the initial 2 weeks, fish are weighed and moved into medication-free conditioning systems where they are kept for a further period of 2-8 weeks until they hit their target weight gain and are socializing well. During this period, they are fed a wide variety of foods designed for each species' dietary requirements, these include Mysis, krill, Pellets, Flakes, and Seaweed.
