Achilles Tang - Cloudy eye

[Viner87]

I don't run any reactors. I turned UV off.

UV off for the whole 15days during during the 3 treatments or just after the dosing?

 

[Mr. Brooks]

Leave it off for the whole treatment.

Leave it off for the whole treatment.

Brill - so to replicate what you did, I’ll dose 3 times (once every 5days) for a full 15days treatment period [emoji1303]

 

[Mr. Brooks]

I actually went 7 days between doses. So 21 days.

I left the skimmer on with the cup off. The PH drop is significant. On the third dose I totally forgot about the PH drop and I turned the skimmer off. The PH drop ended up killing some of my acros. It is extremely important to do everything you can to keep the PH up if you have sensitive corals.

Sorry to bother you dude, but how long did you leave the skimmer cup off for after each dose? I’m taking it you didn’t leave the cup off for the full 21says did you?

So I’m having a similar problem but I’m almost mine is from another tang as it looks like his eye has a cut on it, I noticed a white spot on his eye two days ago and today it’s cloudy (probably infected) anything I can do? Been eating like a champ and has been getting the seachem vitality soaked nori everyday

I would FW dip to see what kind of impact that has on it: https://www.reef2reef.com/threads/freshwater-dip.248898/

So per my theory of reef keeping “the problem will solve itself” the White cheek is back to normal. I believe it was a scratch that healed up, it started looking better the next day before I could even do anything
