Had a few questions about what I've experienced so far with my tank.
Setup
45g jbj rimless
Radion xr15 pro - battlecoral shedule @100% with 120 lense
Mp10
Apex controller
Apex dos, brs sodium bicarbonate/ calcium
Aquamaxx 1 hob
Brs reactor with brs rox and brs gfo
35 lbs rock
Seachem matrix in the overflows
Red sea coral pro salt
2 clowns, coris wrasse flame angel, watchman goby, lawnmower blenny
Medium stock of lps, low stock sps 5 frags
Alk 10 dkh, dosed at 4ml per night
Calcium 420 , dosed at 2 ml per day
Ph 7.9 - 8.2
Nitrate 0 on nyos
Mag 1600 on red sea test
Phosphate 0
Salinity 35
10% wc weekly
Most of these numbers have been fairly stable and tested often. Alk high due to salt.
Enough diatoms to clean the glass daily, my tank is not in direct light. I also have enough green algea to keep blenny fat, and taint my rocks green a little. I'm not sure why? Thoughts?
Recently spent the last month using 3 doses of prazi liquid form in the tank due to stringy poop on 3 of my fish. Week one went fine, 6 days later 20% wc, dose 2 for eggs went fine, 20% wc turned my skim and reactor on. 3rd week stringy poop again on my medium clown and angel after 6 days, 4th week 3rd dose really had an Ill effect on everything. Stopped the meds after 3 days water change and skim reactor back on. Next day my ph dropped to 7.4
2 sps with rapid tissue loss, clown almost died, flame angel not eating much and hiding, torch, hammer and frog look stressed. Other than not owning a quarantine did I do something incorrectly?
Aside from the algae and parasite issue, I'd like to see more growth in my corals. Color seems mostly ok, good polyp extension. I feed reef chili 2 or 3 times a week, and this week I've been trying the zeovit coral foods. I'm wondering if rox and gfo is to aggressive starving them out?
Thanks for any input and reading all of that!
