i think the NO2 is the culpit rather than the NO3 which is measure at 50ppm. NO2 should not be detectable in a fully cycled tank in the first place unless something died in your tank very recently. However, it is advise to maintain your NO3 below 40ppm....

You are probably right.....2 green chromis and 1 benny just died a coupleof days ago and I left it in the tank because I am having difficulty retrieving it......the bloody tank is too small!!! and my tonga and live rocks are stacked up so densly!!! <_< FYI its about 13kg!!!

Must upgrade must upgrade!!!! :lol:

Also remember that when doing water changes to reduce nitrates, the nitrates will only be reduced proportionate to the amount of water changed. For example, if you have 50ppm of NO3, and you change 10% of water, you will reduce the NO3 by 10% or 5ppm. You will still be left with 45ppm. This does not mean to change a larger amount of water, but you may want to change a small amount more often. How long did you have the brain before it starting losing tissue? Maybe it was an unhealthy specimen before you got it.

I think its about a month since I bought from LCK210....

It looks this way when I bought it initially....very nice leh!!! ;)

Ok....will change water very 2-3 days....... <_<
