So….2 months ago tank went thru a funk for like a week…all gsp closed up, toadstool all closed up, kenya trees were not extending.
tank had been running for a year w/no issues and was an upgrade from a 12yr established tank…
tested water at the time
Nitrates 20-high but have softies and some lps
phosphate .1
salinity 1.026
mangnesium was in range 1275-lower end
alk was 7.8
calcium 440
so did some decent water changes-and what not
did lose prior 4 small chromis that i believer were murdered-never found the bodies, lost a yellow wrasse which i found the body and was a 7yr old fish, and something killed my orange shoulder tang of a year-recovered body-thinking my blue killed it as i noticed my blue tang now sleeps where the orange shoulder always slept-recovered his body-ammonia was .1 which was surprised i had traces of ammonia
since then everything seems to be back on track
But my gsp that were bright green are opening up but seem like they lost all their green color-some green is coming back but wondering what would have made then lose color??
