It's Just a Tank

[Goaway]

Yep planaria. In my other tank when I got them I did triple dose in tank every other day for 7 treatments. That was effective.

1.5 drops per gallon has killed these. I will probably go with flatworm exit if it doesn't bother the eel. Water change is today anyhow.
So after flatworm exit is ran, i'll water change and add the last dose of prazi today.

Im a bit relieved this isn't a bigger pest.

sounds like a good plan

Not 1 flatwom on glass this morning, inferno is hiding behind the rockwork, 2 wrasses are not showing themselves this morning. Everyone else is accounted for.

Going to make breakfast and hopefully they'll surface once I'm done.

What a morning.

Welp, just saw a thousand fw minis all over my glass. This will be an interesting battle. No idea on species yet. My guess, they came in as eggs from the hammers I bought

Springer damsels are supposed to help

I don't think I want to try flatworm exit again. My copperband is suffering. i did a 50& water change over the weekend, changed carbon 2x per day. So, I went through a ton of carbon. Have the skimmer doing whatever it can. Changing 25 micron socks every 6 hours. All the fish are fine, except my copperband and 1 fireworm dead, dead as a doornail. I am .... in a freenzy.

Add an additional airstone , the more 02 the better

I have 2 extra wave makers pointed at the top.

I did not dose the prazi as Iwas waiting to see how the fish would respond to the fwexit. Prazi treatment 2 was skipped.

 

[fishguy242]

they help w gas exchange , a little 02 , air stone w micro bubbles will increase 02 much more , even in sump if necessary

Theres an article, several that did the 02 exchange stating the wave makers added more oxygen. Jay got into a debate with someone. I'd have to find the article.

 

[fishguy242]

Forget about article for now, pics of tank water color ,& how coral are acting ATM , like to see skimmer cup too

 

[Goaway]

Everyone. Except the cbb is fine.

Pskimmer is puling what it can out

 

[Goaway]

Going to grab a air pump just because, going to add that to the sump.

Cbb and eli have not eaten. Or even attempted to eat. I suspect Eli is just doing eel things, but... the cbb is slightly swimming aroing today. Breathing isn't as heavy.

Changed carbon, filter socks, cleaned skimmer, 20% water change. Corals look fine, other fish are acting like bottomless pits.
Hopefully, cbb feels better tomorrow and resumes eating.

I hope he starts eating too. He’s beautiful and so is your display.

The fact the cbb is swimming around with close to normal gill movement is a relief. I'll be happy once i see the cbb grab a bite. You never know with these fish.

 

[Goaway]

1 bite, was all the cbb took tonight. It's a start. Live pineapple mollies this weekend.
Bta looks healthy after the sump trip. At least I think I know where to look if she goes missing again.

Cbb is back to eating. Going to enjoy coffe and this until lunch time.
Some relief.
