Snails were all dead except 2 and I found my sifter star dead aswell...Pulled out all the dead.......Tested My water again and Nitrites, Nitrates, PH, ALK and Ammonia were perfect.....Tested Salinity 2 times both times read 1.021..............went to my LFS and took a water sample just to get a second opinion..........all levels were perfect but Salinity read 1.024 on their tester.........so which one is right? Any Way of knowing for sure........bought 5 gal of salt water which he said was at 1.026 so if i added it (according to my 1.021 reading) should bring me up to about 1.023........what to do?
I bought myself 20 blue legged hermit crabs (guy thew in an extra 5) so i now have 25 hermits.....hopefully they can clean up a little........
also my LFS said that My tangs black ich looking spots were infact a form of ich common In hawaii species? They suggested that I feed my Powder Brown Tang some romain lettuce as well as the red and green dry algy (sorry I know i didnt spell that right). Said the romain lettuce has nutritional values (to include water) which keep the fish hidrated, healthy and keep his metabolisim up.
What do you all say?
I am attaching a picture of a star fish which I can't Identify......can someone help?
Also anyone In miami that could inform me on "the best" LFS or what have you.
Thanks
