no issues with no3 that low? I seem to get dinosaur when my no3 is under 2.0

 

[rxx2rxx2]

Shhhh, knock on wood.
Trying to raise nitrate.
Added 2 fish. Feeding a little more.
Going to start TDO Chroma Boost.

Alk seems a bit high too

Dang, I'm guessing the freshwater dip didn't help?

That was the big Tahitian maxima next to the closed up squamosa. Maxima looked ok at night. In the AM there was a snail caught in the inhalant siphon. Not sure if it fell in there or crawled in there because the clam was dying. After seeing that I just left the squamosa alone. It's about status quo.

Well definitely pull the dead one. The other one might benefit from the dip but it might be next on the way out without any intervention.

Hope this will stay alive and keep these colors

A little update. Went on a little vacation to see our son in Japan before the holidays. ATO decided to stop working. The guy taking care of the tank says "it looks like your fish are swimming in snow". He was kind enough to go back, only lives a few blocks away, he ended up having to topoff the tank manually, daily. I asked him if he just noticed it, he was like, nah, was like that yesterday. Lost 10 nice frags thus far
I have a Tunze 3155. I guess there was some buildup on the sensor. I just wiped it off when I got home and it's been working ever since. Probably tells you in the instructions somewhere about periodic maintenance. Who reads that stuff. LOL

Shot from today. Things seem to be stable. Purged all the dead skeletons.
