I received an order from LiveAquaria, sadly the temp in the cooler was too low and one fish was DOA. Candy cane and other fish were stressed but alive. I put them in acclimated properly and am acclimating the coral to my light. The day before yesterday it stopped showing its sweeper tentacles and my clownfish is refusing to eat and swimming weird. Parameters.
I had .25 ppm ammonia a nitrite spike to 1.0ppm and nitrates were at 60ppm and had to do two 5g water changes back to back over 2 days. I have a 20g Waterbox.
Today my nitrites are back to zero, 0ppm ammonia, and Nitrates are <5.
Alk is 12.6 dkh, I may have misread the test.
Calcium 420.
Pics are in order from most recent to oldest. I've had this coral for 1 week. Tank has been cycled for 1month.
P.s. I am very satisfied with LiveAquaria customer service they are great and have already given me credit for the fish that was DOA. And yes this is most probably New Tank Syndrome. The coral looks like it's going through STN, can I save it?
