Hey everyone, I feel like I’m almost posting here daily so first of all my apologies for that I’ve noticed a little string floating at the side of my hammer which i bought about three weeks ago. First I thought it might be another hitchhiker but then I noticed the skin at the bottom on the skeleton not looking so great. Is it dying? Any idea what might be possible causes? I’m planning on doing a big water change tonight. I’ve added two small fishes to my tank (court jester goby and juvenile mocha storm) which is only a 6g that already had a juvenile clown. My 33g is in the works (finishing me rock structure and waiting for a bit more equipment) so in about three weeks I can transfer the live stock. I’m doing two small water changes a week since I know that the bioload is probably too much for that size tank. Could this be the reason why the coral is reacting this way? I also had my light cranked up a bit for about a week as I was trying to get a bit more algae growth for the jester goby as I don’t see him eat the mysis or algae pellets that i drop in. He prefers to sift sand and pick at the rock. I did noticed that this was not ideal as some coral started to retract and I went back to my previous light setting (red to zero, white to 9%, and the other blue/purple to 100% for 9 hours a day). I’ve been having this 6g for 5 months. The acro’s I just got so everything is “parked” in this little tank until I can move it to the larger one in 3 months or so. I don’t think it will grow out of proportion in that time and if I keep up with regular water changes that all trace elements should be present to take care of these corals? Let me know if I’m completely missing the ball here or I am being ignorant on some level And sorry I made you all read an entire book here. Cheers!
