My zoa seems to be slowly dying, started with some black spots on the head than slowly spread and now some part turn white and seem to be dropping off. What is happening? Nitrate: 5ppm Phosphate: 0.05ppm Calcium: 440 KH: 7dkh Salinity: 1.023 (hydrometer) Temp: 27.5-28.5 with fan ATO to reduce salinity swings

Today finally got around to getting a phosphate and nitrate test kit. Test results were quite surprising. Lower than expected Nitrate: 5ppm Phosphate: 0.05ppm Also tested kh which was 7dkh, which is quite low, so added some liquid kh. However my zoa seems to be getting worse, and it seems like it is only this particular head. the rest are fine. The black spots are growing bigger and a portion of it at the edges seems to turn white and look like it is falling off. Help please

bumps for the wrasse

Nice tank, what return pump are you using?

Managed to get a clam. Still looking for the wrasse

Oh no! where to look for eggs, better check the one which i got from you

Whats wrong with jireh?

Yup, I also run carbon and recently rowaphos in a filter bag in one of the compartments

Think you mean the black thingy, its a thermometer probe.

Haha true, but what i mean as some people like fowlr, some like sps only tank, some only lps, so at e start must try all see which you prefer

FTS

Its about 2.5-3 inch Haha thanks bro. I also started off did not want keep much. But then hands got itchy. Haha. As a new reefer must try all kinds of stuff. Then see which type suits you.

I have been picking shells from the beach since i was a kid. Think should be ok ba

Added a corcea clam from bro evo. It opened up very nicely! Thanks bro. On a side note, tired adding some grape algae but all died, caused alot of algae to grow, so i had to run some rowaphos with my carbon and also did quite a few water change. The algae seems under control now. There was also some black spots on my green zoas. Online said could be due to stress. Anyone got any ideas? It started off as a small spot then it started growing. Covering the mouth of the zoas, turned my light down from 100% blue and 60% white, to 80% blue and 60% white.

Hi looking to buy 1 of a small size wrasse as stated above. The smaller the better. And also looking for a small sized maxima or any other clams. Hopefully 6cm across or less. U can pm me if u have

Looking good

DSB is deep sand bed

I think no need on led or chiller, waste money, and e light might cause algae to grow

it could be highly possible, you might want to get a copper test kit. Once copper gets into ur system it is terribly hard to remove. it gets into ur rocks, sand, even e tank silicone

Just saw one bro selling his IQ5, think that is the same skimmer can ask him if he wants to let go the skimmer only

im using dymax nano skimmer, it is super small

Wow thats pretty cool and good to know!

Looking good
