There’s no need to dose anything. Let the aquarium do its thing. Your wasting your time

Human error. Test again. Btw. There’s no need to test cal unless your aquarium is packed with sps. It’s a major element but doesnt swing like alk dose.

My bad. Baking soda will move ph but it’s only minor. Not major like soda ash. Thomas is correct.

Baking soda dose not move ph only alk. Soda ash moves alk and ph. You can diy soda ash. Bake the baking soda for a hour at 350*. It will turn into soda ash. Go slow if you don’t know what you’re doing. Read read read some more.

Robert sells NSW.

You sound like Erin.

If you drop Prozi make sure you aerate the water like crazy. Prozi removes oxygen from the water

I was actually thinking a lot of times we think in a singular way, we actually should be thinking in a multiple way. IE: ick and stress thus slime coat compromised or flukes and bad water makes slime coat ball up. Just throwing thoughts out there. Like when I get sick. It’s usually not a cold at...

So I ran a octo 200 and a octo 110sss on my 320. Then I swapped it out for a octo 250. My ph went up 1-1.5 ph. Dunno if you can fit a bigger skimmer. Something to consider

I hear you will be getting a phone call in 6-8 months. Unfortunately at that time the aquarium will need a revamp. Let me know if you need help then.

There’s also that Luke guy on fb marketplace. Boun was trying to buy a spawn from him but he wanted way too much money.

Or someone asked you “ hey how’s that coral doing and you said great 10 years now “. Next thing you know. Dead. Never say it out loud. Coral gods are always listening. Lol.

Asked grok3 You’re likely referring to mucous cocoons or mucus cones, which some fish, like certain species of parrotfish or wrasses, create to protect themselves while sleeping or resting. Since your original question mentioned a Powder Blue Tang (PBT) and ich, let’s clarify whether the image...

I ran your photos thru grok3 and asked what it thought it was. Is It Definitely Ich? • Yes, highly likely if the spots are uniform white dots (not fuzzy like velvet or red like bacterial spots). Ich is the #1 cause of white-spot disease in reef tanks. • Not ich? Could be mistaken for: •...

Humble.fish. Go ask there. Hopefully Bobby will answer your questions. Fish is thin tho. I agree with Erin. Try to fatten them up. Ick ? Maybe. Bumps look big tho. Almost looks like cotton balls but those are usually on fins only.

Take a close up still picture. You still didn’t answer my question. Were the fish properly qt or purchased from a store that qt’s ? The high tds is probably just a stressor not the root cause. Btw. Those fish will eat meaty foods , nature they are vegetarian. So more algae’s

I don’t think that’s your problem. Fowlr systems don’t need zero tds water. The video is hard to tell what is on your fish. Pbt and blue tangs are thin skin mucus fish. Did you qt or buy from a qt place ? I’m not a fan of carbon. I think people over do it. Less is more.

I got a Rubbermaid 300 tub you can borrow dunno how big your system is

I’m NOT a fan of hot swaps. 1 day swap can go horribly wrong. Having said that. I’m not a fan of swaps in general. I believe my aquarium would be leaps and bounds if I just stuck with one system instead of always upgrading. I hear Cody @Cody Ramirez is your friend. I hear he has big aquariums...

I’ve been in the hobby for 26 years. There’s not a day that goes by that I don’t think about quitting. You do know that this is one of the hardest hobbies in the world. The average person only last 18 months in this hobby. Think deep down if you have a passion for this hobby. If you don’t then...
