yup.

i'm dealing with PO4 now. so holding back on corals for now.

after cycling, my PO4 went up to 1ppm.

after using rowa crystal and WC, now it dropped to 0.25-0.5

still super high but fishes don't usually care about PO4. so must lower it to 0 before i put corals in.

NO3 surprisingly 2ppm lol?

yup.

my NO3 is 2ppm only. coz i did alot of massive water change to bring it down. and my tank is fishless mah for about 1 week..

the PO4 i dunno from where. maybe from some dead stuff.

anyway i just got back my wrasses from fuel. his tank tempt too high at 31. the marjorie and roseafascia looked quite stressed. marjorie is temperate water and relatively deepish so it needs cool temp. roseafascia somewhat deeper water so the high temp may stress them.

So they are in your tank liao... Anyway, I saw this product, it is reef safe as it is made from herbs... So can use to control ich and flukes..

Effective or not, I dunno..

Herbtana

Is it effective? Now i'm battling ich and flukes and possible velvet brought by the crosshatch. Thinking of dosing copper again, if not add UV sterilizer. Sian ich is so unavoidable!

ich is really unavoidable 1.

if u want a ich free system, u will have to QT everything even corals etc. it's impossible because some of the difficult angels CANNOT qt. like bandit etc. imagine hypoing and coppering a bandit.... it's already so difficult even with luxurious conditions and still want to qt. cfm die 1.

so the best way is to keep it at bay. not eradicate it.

Digi, Best way is to get a UV for ich, it will prevent them from outbreak... As for Flukes, I dun thin UV will work...

I might give the medication a try if I can find it @ C328... Saw a few microbe-lift product before..

Kanna influneced by Chai Ching ah.. LOL...

But difficult fish..

i actually dun like AT one.

only like the very big ones with the nice teardrop but those grow too big.

thinking of adding a tang for algae control in future but it's tricky since i dislike almost all tangs.

dun like.

like i said, this whole family of fish is my least favourite. there's not a tang inside that i really really like.

some of them are just ok-ok only. like AT, clown tang, hybrid PBT.

if you notice i've never bought a tang before in my life. only a YT which was to control some algae, after that i sold off. and a PBT which i bought over from joe which died while i was overseas
