SRC Member Clement Chen Posted November 28, 2013 Author SRC Member Share Posted November 28, 2013 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 Quote Clem's Clam Corner (Decommed) 60cm x 40cm x 30cm Tank Nano tank reboot v2.0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kohanson Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 Bro, could be the left coral is too near and they sting your zoas.

SRC Member Clement Chen Posted December 1, 2013 Author SRC Member Share Posted December 1, 2013 It is a possibility, i did some reading and it seems like they do sting . goodbye corals.. Sighs, was trying to remove the affected coral and accidentally cut it quite badly, i removed the whole frag as i was afraid of the palytoxins getting into the water.. Should have done better research first.. sighs.. Quote Clem's Clam Corner (Decommed) 60cm x 40cm x 30cm Tank Nano tank reboot v2.0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kohanson Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 Its ok bro. We all learn from mistake. Remember to wear gloves when moving LR and handling corals. I kena sting by bristle worm before and have a hard time removing the bristles from my finger. After that, I went to daiso to get the $2 gloves.

SRC Member Clement Chen Posted December 5, 2013 Author SRC Member Share Posted December 5, 2013 Bought a new yellow coris to help clear some nudis.

SRC Member Clement Chen Posted December 5, 2013 Author SRC Member Share Posted December 5, 2013 nudis, are nudibranch, they eat zoas also some eats monti. Nope, cover all the time, with or without light.

SRC Member Clement Chen Posted December 7, 2013 Author SRC Member Share Posted December 7, 2013 Well some set backs faced. When I came home for the first time I saw my clam closed. Was so worried and wondered if it was pyramid snails. So I tried searching at night and found nothing. Next day I saw my yellow coris attack the clam very fiercely right in the center. So I quickly removed it and gave it away. Right after that the clam opened up fully Quote Clem's Clam Corner (Decommed) 60cm x 40cm x 30cm Tank Nano tank reboot v2.0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SRC Member Clement Chen Posted December 10, 2013 Author SRC Member Share Posted December 10, 2013 Not much changes. Found out that I really do have pyramid snails. Went to get a small 6 line to handle it. The green monti has spots of white on it. Which could be due to stress. Have been knocking it over or taking it out of the water for changes Quote Clem's Clam Corner (Decommed) 60cm x 40cm x 30cm Tank Nano tank reboot v2.0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SRC Member Clement Chen Posted December 17, 2013 Author SRC Member Share Posted December 17, 2013 RIP my clam it was doing ok one day and the next it started to close. Should have done a fresh water dip immediately also found quite a few pyramid snails. I waited too long and the fwd might have sealed its fate. Oh well was too ambitious. Think should go back to easy corals Quote Clem's Clam Corner (Decommed) 60cm x 40cm x 30cm Tank Nano tank reboot v2.0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SRC Member Clement Chen Posted January 12, 2014 Author SRC Member Share Posted January 12, 2014 My tank is almost half a year old! Just some updates, have recently added some macro algae which died causing my tank parameters to go haywire. Had cyano and hair algae growth. Recently gotten some algone from madpetz. Thanks Ken for the suggestion! and never regretted Now my nitrates is undetectable using salifert test kit. Having been running rowa also so phosphates also undetectable. The rest of the parameters have been very good. Hope the HA goes away soon. Have gotten a xenia from a nice reefer but e heads doesnt seem to be opening, will give it a few more days to see. 6 line and my nemo seems to be getting along very well Quote Clem's Clam Corner (Decommed) 60cm x 40cm x 30cm Tank Nano tank reboot v2.0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRC Member Clement Chen Posted January 21, 2014 Author SRC Member Share Posted January 21, 2014 Just came back from taiwan, n my tank was full of hair algae. sighs, nitrates and phosphates still undetectable. Have upgraded to a IQ5 from a nice reefer, with a cool backdrop. Will use it for QT after getting my new tank Quote Clem's Clam Corner (Decommed) 60cm x 40cm x 30cm Tank Nano tank reboot v2.0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

diverxxx Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 Hey Nice Tank!! I remember starting out with a nano tank just like yours. i did regular water change 10%-15% every 3days with seawater bought from ahbeng or that i took from marina pier. My corals and fishes were healthy. it was easy because its just a small tank no need for any other supplements. Ups for you bro. . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
