Tang look bad

[Simon Reefing]

I’m not sure if you can tell but in the top left corner is we’re the pods are and this is on both sides but I see a ton of live ones everywhere to is that normal? For that many dead ones?

Oh wow that’s cool! What caused the nitrates to be that high? And yes I’m going to start looking at him a bit more it’s weird because I’ve had all of them for a few years. **** always hits the fan when you go on trips I feel.

When I inherited him and that tank he lived in, It hadn't had a water change for 2 years. Give or take.


Don't put that into the atmosphere please. I'm leaving my tanks for 5 days starting next Wednesday and essentially freaking out!!

I’ve tested with two different test kits and I could detect nitrate do you think the test can be bad?

vitamin deficiency I am incline to believe this also. I was gone for vacation so I only feed with the auto feeder. I recently changed the food to PE pellets. I was using full spectrum before I bought PE. I also feed seaweed but I didn’t for a while since I was on vacation. I recently bought so reef frenzy as well.

I do not see any numbs on his tail. He does still have a nice shinny slime coat though if that means anything.

On nitrate, yes and for diet:

-Spirulina brine shrimp
- LRS Herbivore diet
- mysis shrimp
- small plankton
- Nori seaweed basted with garlic extract
- Hikari Marine cuisine
- Formula 2 flake and frozen
- Hikari veggie marine

Add selcon vitamins to the foods 2-3X per week and on alternating days, garlic extract for stamina and immunity health
