I feel like I've said this Million times before, but here we go.. so i have a 55 and for the last 2 months my tank hasn't been good(water quality, poor diet ect.) . Its been two weeks now and I'm just starting to come over the hump. I've been doing 5/10 gallon water changes for the last 2 months . I did a 5 gallon water change the 15th of this month and i just tested my water now..
phosphate .18
nitrite: .04
Ph:8.2
alk 2ish
ammonia: .1
so there that.. let me know what you think..
On to the questions:
1: my yellow tang has HLLE from poor diet I'm sure.. so I switch over to a brand of frozen foods with lots of "stuff" in it. I soak it in OJ and garlic that i mix up and freeze it in that. I just got "sea veggies" green seaweed;I put a piece in, attached it to my magnet but i don't think my tang ate any of it.also left it in over night and my water the next day looked kinda cloudy? any thoughts there. How to get it to eat it? and anything about feeding.
2: I've been putting in Kent marine essential elements.. last douse was the 9th.. should i continue with dousing? its a half a year old so i don't even know if it still good?
3: I only have maybe a half inch of sand.. would getting more help my SWT?. If i don't keep changing 5 gallons water every week once or twice a week. my levels grow kinda fast:/ so i don't know how to fix that. And a have a little canyo problem; every week I pick it off the sand bed but i never can get all the sand off. so I'm constantly losing sand. Ik there many forms about canyo but any thoughts there as well.
Wow! I hope someone reads all this
