I have a 75 gallon reef tank. 5 small fish, 150 lbs of LR and 80 lbs LS. Inhabitants are very few at this time--mushrooms and the generic like. My question is this--am I over filtering??? In addition to the LR and LS I have 2 Emperor Bio-Wheel Filters, 2 canisters and a protien skimmer. The medium in the filters is only surface area and foam--I don't add charcoal or other mediums. --Nothing seems to thrive and things seem to slowly die--that according to my "fish guy" should do fine in the lighting that I am providing. My most recent death was a green star polyp that I had had for almost 8 months--no previous problems.
My lights -- Custom Sea life pc 2 x 65W 10000K PC LAMPand 2 x 65W ACTINIC-BLUE PC LAMP
My water parameters are always right where they should be.--but of course I can not measure the amout of nutrients left after filtration.
Any suggestions or help is appreciated--thanks is advance.
