Help with Tang

Iinux · Oct 20, 2020

Good Evening,
I came home to my tang about 20 days into QT doing humblefish's method. Hes acting a bit wierd

I checked the following perimeters :
Copper : 2.54PPM, took out a gallon of water, and put in a gallon of 0 copper water.
SHOULD be at about 2.39 PPM with 18 gallons of water.
Nitrite : 0
Nitrate : 0

I have fresh salt water that is mixed to xfer him to if you guys say he needs to get out

His breathing has calmed down. I did wake him up when i saw him

What does “acting a bit weird” mean? What’s the ammonia level? Are you using copper power, cupramine, or something else? What are you using when checking the copper level?

Copper power, ammonia is 0, weird is him swaying back and fourth like in the video shown. For testing copper i am using a hannah checker

His breathing is a little above normal but not distressed. I notice debris in video- I too question :
Ammonia
Nitrate
PH
salinity
Tank temp

Also, are you using RO water or tap water from the faucet ?

Sorry. I don’t see a video. I only see a static image that links to an Imgur page that never loads anything. Just monitor the situation. If you woke it up, it may have just been startled.

all RODI, the debris is the food, its sliced up on a magnet feeder, moved it for video

(broke off)

Ammonia - 0 API
Nitrate - 0 API
PH - 7.8 (hannah checker handheld)
salinity 35 on the dot (hannah checker handheld)
Tank temp 76 (hannah checker handheld)
