Tank
 

How long has your tank been running?

Too fast
 

You need to slow down. If you added livestock after a week of being set you are asking for issues.

Slow down. Add no more until you watch the tank for at least a month.

If this is your first salt set up.... I can tell you patience is a virtue. If you rush it... you are going to lose a lot of livestock and money.


Take your time. It will pay off. Inverts are sensitive creatures to begin with.


Let your tank cycle for a month regardless of what your test results are. There is always possibility of die-off in the first month.

Tank has been up for over a month and a half now, I watched the cycle it wasn't a big one but still had a small one. I have been watching levels constantly and it seem to be stable so I added a small cuc and left it. This was 4 snails, peppermint shrimp, cleaner shrimp and a week later the urchin.

My black clowns are still in qt and seem to be doing ok other than weird spots which no one seems to know what they are.

I also check the levels every day and I know to be slow.
