Hello all,
I have a tank that I can't keep blastos or acans alive. They all tend to recess and die eventually. However it seems like everything else in my tank is okay?
One thing I've been trying to do is raise my alkalinity via seachem fusion. For alkalinity I use the API test kit and trying to target between 11 and 12 and it seems like it's around 10 to 11 at times.
What would cause blastos and acans not to have any success typically?
Nitrates: try to be 1 to 5 ppm (salifert kit)
Phos: try to keep it under .3, usually at .1 (salifert kit)
Salinity: 1.026
My tank is chateo filtration. Rarely do any water changes just dose fusion 1, fusion 2 and frtiz mag.
Will dose neo nitro for nitrates and reef ab+
Will feed reef roids to raise phos
Feed 3x a day flake food and occasionally brine shrimp once or twice a week
