Hello,
So I just did a 10 gallon water change on my 80 gallon total water volume system. Its the first change with a new bucket of red sea salt (blue bucket). That's the salt I have used so its not new salt for the system. Salinity and temped matched well, I just double checked the tank for that. Ammonia and ph look good.
Shortly after I finished the change I noticed my acros sending out an immediate response. long white threads. then I noticed my 3 rock nems bulging. I think I noticed some snails falling off the glass. My yellow coris wrasse popped back out of his sand sleep and it looks like there is some red by his gills. Now I see some snails above the water line.
Don't really notice anything strange with the other fish... but the change happened right when my lights go out so its hard to say...
So, I just filled up my carbon reactor with carbon.
Same water change bucket... nothing out of the ordinary happened.
Has a new bucket of salt ever caused a major reaction for anyone? I feel helpless.... Cant do water changes now since that's the only salt I have.
thoughts?
