I'm doing fine and finally catching up here on N-R. I know what you mean about the deep tank. My 90g FW tank is as tall as I would ever want. I don't want to need a ladder to reach the bottom of the tank. 2 Quote Link to comment
spectra Posted May 31, 2020 Author Share Posted May 31, 2020 Well just for Mitten Kitten a update..................... tank is kicking my ass and not happy............well all corals seem happy except a few zoas ans some sticks..........but other ssticks seem happy so its one of those wonder why things...........going to run an ICP test and see what comes back just ordered one today........ran some tests and everything seems normal but the stupid Hannah Ultra low is sitting at .04 still cant get it to rise and nitrates are pretty much 0.......... Started dosing some phyto tonight when I fed so will see if I can get something to happen...........try and dirty up the water............ Other than that not much but did pick up a 2 polyp frag of some white zombies today so fingers crossed they dont melt.............. 5 Quote Link to comment
spectra Posted June 19, 2020 Author Share Posted June 19, 2020 Dang its dead in here................kind of like the tank................ its still pissing me off and not sure why.............hopefully ICP will be done this week sent the samples in last week............but in the end am just not happy with the way things are going am thinking of a reboot................may just pull all my rock and start fresh............re dip all corals and see what happens..............will be able to catch some fish at least and maybe can get rid of the aptasia..............will have to make sure none are in the overflow..........dont want to really look maybe just toss my tahitian butterfly in there.................. Anyway there is my update................ 3 2 Quote Link to comment
spectra Posted June 19, 2020 Author Share Posted June 19, 2020 Hey its not sad.................I am just pissed at the tank and myself.................. Hell go vote for my picture in the photo of the month............its what I thought of when I saw claws................ Ooooooooohhhhhh the claw........................ 1 3 Quote Link to comment
FISHnChix Posted June 19, 2020 Share Posted June 19, 2020 You think this might just be from having a new tank that needs time to mature? I know you used your old rock but how much new rock did you use? All new sand too right?? What about that crazy huge skimmer? Still running that?? 2 Quote Link to comment

I used new live sand so no issues there............... tank was doing great and then it just hit a shitty spot...............hell skimmer was off for 2 weeks,........... I have 3 tangs 2 of them are 4" at least...........4 anthias..........4 wrasses..........my butterfly.............a rabbit sorry Jack not Stewart...............and a mandarin.............. I feed at least 3 cubes of mysis a day and well...............test for nitrates and it comes up 0................even bought a new test kit and still 0................

I'd say its bc the tank is still new and going to need more time to stabilize.. icp results will be interesting for sure.. I mean some knuckle head did run high tds water in his tank for lord know how long 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️ maybe it's still rebounding 1 2 1 Quote Link to comment

Like I said am waiting on the ICP and may just send one into Triton and see what comes back............... I will have a lot of credit with the LFS so like I said a new rock scape may be in order..............plus all the corals I will give them hell............... 4 Quote Link to comment
