Hi All,
Just new to the hobby, but I have had my tank up and running since 1st October. Parameters have looked fine and consistent
Calcium - 420
Alk - 12dKH
Mag - 1400
NH3 ammonia - 0.001mg/l (ppm)
NH4 - 28.67 (ppb) don’t know if this ok
Salinity - 1.024
Temp - 24-25 degrees Celsius
pH - Seneye reef says 7.82 but test stick says around 8
I poured Dr Tims one and only in around Sunday the 3rd oct and have left it
I am not sure about the fish however I have my very first 2 clown fish coming tomorrow, I was unable to get them sooner as i have to get them flown to me.
But my phosphates I have just checked gone to .25 and then recheck .21 - I am worried that my tank is now not ready for my 2 clowns and I really didn’t want anything to happen to them?
I have not done a water change at all as I was trying to build up the nitrifying bacteria which is hard to get here. The only thing I have now is the API quick start?
Will my new fish be alright? Or what should I do?
I am so new at this and obviously panicking as I am trying for nothing to happen to them? #reefsquad
I would appreciate anything that will help me keep my newbies alive #reefsquad
Thanks heaps
