ive been trying chemi clean and the problem seems to be getting worse. i have slowly raised the sg and havent dosed since i started this thread. water changes are still proving useless. ill stir and try to get as much cyano loose as possible, it goes away for a day then BAM right back to where i...

that does sound like it would help but the only ones i could find were $140+ anybody else think they can help?

im not 100% sure what a UV sterilizer is

this is a weird thing too that i didnt mention, the six line developed a white substance (pretty sure not ich) right below his top fin. he was in no way covered and the clown was very docile before he died. he would almost be laying on the ground. i have had both fish for at least 4 months and...

yes i get r/o from my lfs. i have 2 adequate power heads with a really decent amount of flow

so you are saying that you think the lugols has been giving me cyano this whole time?

for cyano? didnt know that could cause cyano.. also this isnt like a "just happend" problem. this has been going on for at least a month and a half. i add one drop every other day. Some people dose every day and have thriving systems

little plastic thing. Hydrometer maybe? not 100% sure

the thing is that everything died before the change.. the xenia still looked like that before i did the big water change. everying was the same besides salidity. I did the change because of the problems, not the other way around and thank you for posting

lugols is for xenia.. it has been shown that xenia actually has iodide inside of it. salidity is so low because of the water change. i ran out of salt durring the last one. and no im not using a refractometer.

Nitrates- 0-.05, Ammonia- 0, PH - 8-8.2, phosphate-0, Specific gravity-1.021 nitrites- 0 Ok so the specific gravity is a little low, just got done doing a 5 1/2+ gallon water change in my 30 gallon tank. (baby maroon clown died) I have a great filter 2 power heads a air stone protein...

iodide can be tested for and so can ammonia..........to an extent

mine is also 1 drop per 30 gallon and my lfs said once a week. i dose every other day and im just 100 percent satisfied. you have to be carefull with everyday because you can overdose your water, in which case you would have to have ammonia detox on hand incase of this. also how old are your...

very and acintics only add color and texture to your corals and anemones, does nothing for there zooaxathelle (spelled wrong) your going to need to drop some bucks to get a light system. you might want to look into metal hailed or nova extremes with individual reflectors. the type you...

that is amazing news, i was so worried that it would only get bigger and not develop any more heads. thank you so much for your post

break out the iodide and those xenia will be thriving. kents lugol solution works wonders. best 18 dollars i ever spent

i recently decided to purchase my first lps coral, ive kept an anemone so i figure i will be fine. (water has been prepped for lps cal. alk. flow. light.)everything is going great and he looks twice as big now as he did in the store. my question is: since i bought him as a single stalk with just...

i lost a long nose hawkfish and a red blenny like that.($45 for the hawk and $18 for blenny) also when i put my ora baby maroon in, he leaped out of the smallest opening and onto my floor. good thing i was there to rescue him or that would have been a 30 dollar waste. i went out and bought a...
