Added to a purple and yellow tang two days ago to a newly two weeks cycled 100g. Only live (correction, dead not live, I can't strike out "live") dead rocks and about ½” of sand bed. They're the only occupants. Added a 2lb live rock from my established tank.
No aggression after observing for 1hr.
Lights are off.
DEAD rocks went through citric acid cleansing, let dry for 2 days then went into tank.
Sand from an established tank. Let dry and removed shells.
Today found yt dead. Pt is hiding
Ammonia .15
Nitrite 0
Nitrate 0
Phosphate .28
Ph 8.6
Added two filter socks yesterday and the skimmer went crazy. The socks were recently washed without soap and let air dry for 3 days. The same sock goes to my other tank and it's fine.
What's the cause of the dead yt?
Should I move the pt back to the other established tank?
