Siren's eye Posted August 16, 2010 Share Posted August 16, 2010 It's dieing! I'm not sure why. I have 0 nitrates, 0 ammonia, salintiy is at 1.024, PH is 8.0. It's well lit in my display. I had it in my ac70, but took it out because I thought maybe the light wasn't right for it. I don't have have fish, so could my water be too clean? I add some fish food pellets 1 a week for my CUC.

Dani3d Posted August 16, 2010 Share Posted August 16, 2010 That's probably why. All micro algae need nitrates as they feed from that. I have 0 nitrates Link to comment
Markushka Posted August 16, 2010 Share Posted August 16, 2010 yup macros need nutrients. new tank huh? It'll take off when you add fish. if you add fish... Link to comment
Siren's eye Posted August 16, 2010 Author Share Posted August 16, 2010 Is it going to ruin my water if I leave it in there? I can't add fish for a month because I had one with parasites die on me, and I'm waiting for any more that might be in the tank to die off. Link to comment
