my bocube 29 with a leak..! :)

ok got new problem micro bubbles heres the pics of the tank

 

what do you think guy i should take the fish and corals to the new tank or wait ? ? this is the water test i made today

nitrite 0.2
ammonia 0
nitrate 50 +
ph 7.2

 

Maxter did you use cured rock live rock? did you move over the rock from the other tank? Did you use the cycling product? How long have you had this tank running a day or two?

 

i used both live rock from my biocube and cured rock from my lfs , and also used a little bit of my sand and start smart complete thats some bacteria in a bottled lol

 

To be on the safe side I would give it one more day if possible, depends on the leak I guess. Test every day, do the water changes as indicated, feed sparingly, if you start to see an ammonia spike add prime or equivalent as directed. Seeing as your other tank is leaking you really have no other choice. Having just a few fish works in your favor.

 

ok how often i need to do the water change and how much 20% 30% 50% ??? the bacteria can grow only with the llive rock or i should trow a raw shrimp or something i really dnt know in what phase on cycle ar the tank :/

 

No shrimp.

Read up on soft cycling a tank. Since you have to move the fish over soon you will need to soft cycle the tank.

ok thanks bro

A block of foam between the sump baffle will stop microbubbles from making it to your tank but will have to be cleaned often.
