I set up and emergency qt for my fish.I bought 3 tangs and 1 had ich.So off to qt they went.In my dt I had 2 maroon clowns, so I added them to the qt also,although the clowns showed no signs of ich and still don't.I had an extra sponge filter in my wet dry that's been there for the longest time.I also added another sponge to the w/d to colonize which are both now on the qt.So I have 5 fish, about 4/4 inches long in a 29g. going through hypo.Every day I change at least 15g of water and also add a little ammon lock.I can only get the ammo down between .25 and .50. The fish are swimming and eating,no more spots[been in hypo 1 wwek].My questions are will this tank ever cycle with this bio load? Or is the constant water changes prolonging any cycling or stabilizing?Also will the fish be ok if I reduce feeding to every other day to minimize waste?If I put some seaweed on a clip the tangs eat it all.I know they are grazers so I don't want them to starve,but do you think skipping a day will be ok?Will I changing 15 -20g of water every day for 4 weeks!Just bought another 30lbs of salt.
