Trouble in paradise???

So my tank has been going along good. Keeping up on my weekly maintenance and WCs. Things are healthy and growing. Parameters are always good. Just ran some phos ban and chem pure.

My fan worm grows it's tube, but there was a hole in the side. I wound up taking it off cause it seemed the worm was not happy/getting stuck. Does not seem to be feeding now, but maybe too soon to say.

I have seen my green mushroom rock slowly loose it's numbers. Had about 7-8, now I'm down to 3. My blue mushrooms were doing great and reproducing, now the main one has been shriveled a lot.

My zoos seem to be withering. Not all, just some. My clown lays in some, but others in other places seem to be too.


So.... I know on the main damaged rock of zoos, my Maroon Clown has decided to beat the crap out of them. Sort of suprised it did not happen sooner. However, all the other stuff is sort of troublesome. I know something nips at my fan worm, never seen it, but it has never taken a chunk out of the tube.

Anything I should be looking out for??? Does my Clown need anger management therapy???

 

We need some numbers........test results. Luna

 

hope you get things figured out.. good luck...

NO3=barely registers.
PO4= zero as far as API is concerned.
Nitrites/Amonia=zero.
Alk is usualy 4-4.5
Ca is usually 400. Although I went on vacation for 5 days and was suprised to find it at 300 when I got back. I only say that because I have never seen it drop. Glad to see the usage up.
PH= 8.3, except will drop to 8.1 over night.
SG=1.025 and stable.

10% WC weekly. Just ran some Phos Sponge for the heck of it. Used a bag of chem pure for the same reason. Run carbon monthly for a week. No algae or other problems.

Candy canes, galaxzy, brain, and GSP seem fine. Frog spawn are haging in. They nearly dies when I put them in the tank, but they are coming back. No new fish now for a couple of months. (Nor will there be any more)

 

Are you dosing anything? Like Kalk? Luna

 

I dose Seachem calcium (liquid) and reef builder. Don't have to dose too much to keep things in line. Couple times a week.

 

You know, when I got home yesterday, my skimmer wasn't working that great. Got it tuned up. Also, I dose plankton at least once a week and sort of got away from thet. Not sure the last time I did. Maybe they need some grub. I'll be sure to feed when I get home.

 

Your Alk seems quite low--shouldn't it be up around at lest 8.

 

It's in meq/l with Seachem kit. It's actually quite high. I think the conversion to Dk is x2.8. So it is 11.2-12.6

 

The only times that I have noticed a decline in my corals health, has been when I accidently overdosed on something. Did you stop feeding the tank? Did you rinse the carbon before installing it? The only advice that I can give you is to do some small back-to-back WC's. Luna
