![]() Well Its gonna look like I'm gonna lose another fish some time soon. He was fine during the day (bengaii cardnel) sleeping and swiming as he usually does, hiding in the corner away from the light. Well its time to head to bed now and he is lying in the same corner on the sand bed breathing hard
![]() ![]() ![]() I tried feeding him and he has no appitite, all the other came out though. I tried feeding the clown as well but no dice. So its starting to look like I've lost 3 in about a weeks time. None of the other fish look stressed out, all are eating well. I did a 5 gallon water change today. Checked all the parameters nothing out of order except now I have some ammonia showing What I can test ph 7.5 ammonia is 0.6 or less No2 0 No3 0 Sg 1.022-1.023 Temp 80F I feed once a day, Dry pellets (1) new life spectrum (2) Omega one shrimp flakes (1) Omega one And some veggie rounds. I tried some freeze dried shrimp but no one liked them Frozen San francisco -Angel and butterfly -Marine Quisine H2O life Carnivoir and omnivoirs And some kind of brine/mysis shrimp flat pack. As well as a sheet of green and a sheet of red nori. I don't dose much of anything some phytomax and lugol about 1 a month if I rember. ![]() The last fish I added is doing good added him about a month ago (red scouter) and befor that nothing for 3-4 months for fish, some coral. I'm still using tap water ![]() More about the system (been up and running for about 6-7 months) 150g with a 25g (water volume)or so sump, I have a skimmer running. But I don't have enough water turn over, so I have 4 korolia 3. For tank mates I have 1 clown 1 red scoter blennie 1 yellow tail damsel 3 green chromis 1 yellow hawain tang (3-4 ") 1 domino damsel (2-3") 1 Sailfin tang (3-4") 1 Hippo tang (3-4") 1 watchmen gobi/tiger pistol shrimp pair 1 long spine unchin 1 peperment shrimp and cuc. So whats going on? Is there something in the water now that they have removed floride from our water in Calgary? Something in the water in the NE? ![]() I don't want to lose any more fish. Most of them I've gotten when they are big, but I've had the clown and the bengaii for over a year now, got them when they were very small. Well that is my tale of woe. Any insite would be very helpful. Cheers |
