Noobreefer90 Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 Ok so I’ve been in the saltwater hobby for about 2 months started with a 14g biocube that I started way to fast and made lots of mistakes on but had some success. But about a week ago I sold the biocube to get a 36g bowfront. So I transferred everything over and added lots more live rock. The tank has lots to go buying corals here and there as I can afford them I’m in the 80 days no fish cycle right now due to ich tank stock 2 head purple hammer small 2 head frogspawn med long green star polyps small pink green star polyps small Purple trumpet coral possibly dead idk new today two head Duncan and made the mistake of not doing my research and bought a fire scallop. Need to know if this scallop will mess with my 80 days no fish cycle for ich tank has 6 hermits 2 snails that stay under sand 2 turbo snail 1 zebra snail 2 other kinds of snail hang on back filter with polyfill diy small protein skimmer small walmart powerhead and a small fountain pump for flow till I get a wave maker eheim 100w heater HIPARGERO LED Aquarium Light – Aquarium LED Lights 30W Saltwater Lighting Touch Control 3W Cree Chips Coral Reef Fish Nano Tank all my corals seem happy do weird stuff from time to time but happy took the Duncan a total of maybe hour or two to fully come out after being knocked over by turbo Here’s a shot of my tank a few days ago i will add a new one soon will keep updating as I get new corals and add fish etc plan on getting a big bullseye mushroom soon maybe a green mushroom to take over a section really been looking at multicolor hammers to this is the scallop in the bad it’s hiding atm so cant get picDuncan I got today frogspawn bad picgsp Quote Link to comment
Clown79 Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 Documentation shows adding ANYTHING to the tank during a fallow period is not recommended as ich can come in on anything. Are you testing the tank for all parameters? Corals do weird things but some are signs of unhappiness, ill health, bad water params. 1 Quote Link to comment
WV Reefer Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 I think you need to slow down again or you are going to be back in the same boat. You are making all the same mistakes. You are adding lots of things to a system that should be fallow. You are also adding things you cannot care for.......A flame scallop is listed as “expert only” for a reason. 1 Quote Link to comment
