Hi my blue tang’s top portion is losing flesh. Seems to be some bacteria eating disease? Any diagnosis? Thanks

Phytoplankton are a natural food for many filter feeding invertebrates. Dosing phytoplankton provides a nutritional boost for the clams, filter-feeding corals and other beneficial invertebrates like copepod in their marine aquarium Each sealed pouch is 500ml. $7 per 500ml pouch. - Cultured using 0 TDS RODI water with AF reef salt. - Special Guillard F2 fetilizer - Single pure strain of Nannochloropsis Oculata Self Collect at West Coast Gardens Sent from Singapore Reef Club mobile app

Thanks all for ur kind advise. I get the kit change and water Can I know which is a better brand of bacterial?

First I suggest you retest to make sure your result is accurate. API test kits are notoriously inaccurate. Once result is confirmed start to do a series of water changes to get the value down. 20 or 30% at a time if possible. You may need to do two or even three changes over the course of a week or 10 days. After doing the water changes you need to address the possible causes... Look at inital water source. Move to RODI where possible. Look at soures of nitrate being generated, are you adding in too much food or have too many fish? It could also come from an accumulation of waste. So make sure you are cleaning out filter socks regularily, cleaning sand bed, and cleaning out sump. After addressing possible causes, you need to think about nitrate management. Take a good look at your mechanical and biological filtration and make sure it is adequate. Does the tank have enough flow to get the detritus suspended, is the skimmer turned in and size appropriately. Are you on top of your regular water changes and cleaning.. After mechanical look at your biological filtration. You have some macro algea so that should start growing and absorbing that undesirable nutrients. Just remember to harvest it regularily. Also you can give your biological filration a boost by adding in bacteria and additonal bio media if you don't already have (especially if you are running bare bottom tank). Carbon dosing and/or adding bio pellets, or even going down the zeovit route are other options to boost the beneficial biological filtration of you tank. Anyways, Good luck. Hope this helps get your nitrates in check. Sent from Singapore Reef Club mobile app

Maybe u wanna try getting a salifert nitrate test kit. It is more reliable. And yes carbon dosing is safe for fishes and corals.

Just get a chiller, in the long term, you'll end up saving alot (in terms of fish/corals). The amount of money poured into fishes and corals are significantly higher than a 2nd hand chiller.

Sorry. I may have left out the location. It be at Woodlands S(730847). In meantime I post the overall image of the tank. the bottom cabinet+ tank is as a set. the door/frame on the left and the cabinet above the tank is not part of it as its an add on support. I will be going through the msgs and replying them. Thank you. Sent from my SM-N975F using Tapatalk

Carrying on the build thread... So with the circuit breaker behind us, and now I have some extra time on my hands (anybody hiring??) I have been busy finishing off projects on the tank. Just completed my electronics section... Basically with some peg board from ikea, a few magnetic door clasps, and spray paint. I am hopeful that I have managed to hide the power bars and inevitable rats nest of cables in a suitably usable and accessible manner. A $15 monitor from cash converters and a $28 amazon fire tablet provide me with constant dashboards and a place to programme the GHL. Whilst some 3D printed brackets hold all the controllers. In hindsight I would have taken a seperate cupboard and placed all my electronics there. Maybe I will move the electronics one day, until then I am hopeful this configuration will work out - would be interesting to hear your views?! Sent from Singapore Reef Club mobile app
