![]() I couldn't say about the rock, as said I cycled for six weeks til the parameters were where they should be,
put in my clean up crew, waited about 1 week, then one clown, turned out he was carrying ich. Personally though I see them as learning experiences haha, cause now I have an idea of what to do in some situations I lost a shrimp due to stray voltage which I still can pinpoint the exact location, I think it actually might be a bad ground in the wall plug it self, cause unplugging cords from the tank proved fruitless, until I unplugged the power bar Salinity spike came from stupidity mostly not think that I should have been topping off with fresh water I wa topping off with salt... (duhhh) lol I sure felt dumb on that one, also I started with a hydrometer, which was reading 3-6 points lower then what my salinity actually was so I would see 1.025 and think it was good, when it was acually 1.028+!! luckily as I'm sure you are finding lots of people love to help one here, one actually gave me his spare refractometer, so I haven't had that problem since. now its pretty much just narrowing down the zoa frag melt situation, but as I said, a few others have told me its happened to them too. Luckily again, I now know what to do, and how to do a peroxide dip ![]() Point is here that I think yes I have had tons of problems, I think some could be from my equipment (hydrometer) but mostly from not doing my homework prior. I think we all make mistakes in this hobby even the experienced but its learning from those mistakes that ensures our tanks survival in the future. And hopefully I dont have many more problems ![]() ![]()
