Hello,
I have two O. Clowns that I got from TSM a few months ago. They have been seemingly happy and healthy, eating well, normally hover in the front corner of my tank and wait to be fed.
In the last few days, they have been hiding in the back, not really responding to food. In fact, even when I feed frozen, they don't seem to go for the bits floating by as they normally do.
They seem to be "mouthing" a bit. Which I thought might be an issue with oxygen. But I have my return nozzles agitating the surface quite a bit. I even pointed one of my power heads at the surface for more agitation.
I did a 25% water change yesterday, and they still seem to be off. I have attached a short video, if it works.
I have a duncan, a ricordia, a gorgonian and a variety of snails and crabs that all seem to be fine. The corals all have good poly extension and seem to be happy.
Tank info:
4 month old IM Lagoon 50 AIO with filter pads on both sides, running carbon and GFO.
No skimmer yet, but adding soon
Testing as of today:
Ammonium(just in case) = 0
Nitrate = 40(usually around 30)
Salinity = 1.027
pH = 8.1
Alk = 9
Mag = 1480
Calcium = 380
Temp = 78.4
Any ideas?
