my first guess would be salinity too or possibly a power surge.
How large is your tank? I think the water volume would definitely factor in on the decision.
I find it hard to believe that stocking doesn't effect the oxygen available. I have read people suggest over feeding but not over stocking.
yes, i would imagine that if you are already overstocked with fish, adding bio-pellets could cause a problem with a lack of oxygen.
i am knocking on wood as i say this but i haven't experienced any of these issues since i began running a bio-pellet reactor last August. i still...
Did you have the water from the reactor depositing near the intake of your skimmer? That should help with the oxygen issue.
i wouldn't worry about the bristle worm. i consider them to be a good part of the clean up crew and it is unlikely to have had anything to do with...
it is a shark and the largest known fish.
definitely going but still need to buy my tickets.
Yes a ph of 7 is low. I would follow proreefers advice. Opening a window or two can help with the co2 problem.
i don't know much about the gold rim but the pb can be agressive like these guys said. i would definitely make sure that it was smaller than the...
is your chaeto upstream or downstream of your bio-pellets? i would be comfortable in adding upstream but leary of downstream since the bacteria on...
80 is fine
your tang would never let it become a problem in your dt.
oddly, this same tang has never gone for mysis even though every other fish in the tank will.
i think that was a responsible decision. We need more like that in the hobby.
So i have had this Desjardini sailfin tang for over 2 years and he has always gone after nori with great gusto. Over the last month he stopped...
by on its side, do you mean no longer attached to the rock? no that would not be normal and is not a good sign. what lights go you have on this tank?
i wrote on a couple of issues i was having couple of months ago and wanted to give an update. my nitrates and phosphates are now testing zero and...
I would definitely provide some dried seaweed (nori). You can either use a seaweed clip or attach the seaweed to the rocks. Tangs need the greens.
