That Random Nano!

[i cant think]

We’re running!
The water is challenging to deal with as you can imagine - less than 1G in each isn’t easy to control the salinity.

This tank has had some neglect for the last 2 weeks but I plan to get ontop of it today and unfortunately I think it starts with dipping my big Maxima Clam…

Could be worse. Woke up to find my clam being shredded by wrasse.

Oh no! Which ones went for it?

It was the fairy that was eating the most but I’m not sure that’s what killed it. Could just be opportunistic

I just tore this tank to get this fella into the 5’ tank, she’s gorgeous with the others - a bit of grief but it’s mainly hierarchal and not too bad.

Maybe I’ll have a nicer pod population now there’s less predation.

My wrassy trio. All from today. Decided to get pics of all my fish. Been a while

 

[i cant think]

Because of the move around of rock I’ve lost this guy… he was under the sand too long as I couldn’t find him and had looked then took another look after it settled.

Hey everyone! Hope you’re all doing well, enjoy this video of the nano

Uh oh… looks like I need some fresh RO and hope the TDS is 0. @Miami Reef @OrionN what do you think?

 

[i cant think]

I also think the TDS was 0.1 for the RO/DI, how bad is that for clams?

Unfortunately that’s totally dependent on what that dissolved solid is. Could be nothing, could’ve be something bad like copper or chlorine

Dang, now I have to hope this clam can survive another 24 hours basically and even then, I don’t know if the TDS is 0 currently…

Any way to know what the dissolved solid is?

 

[i cant think]

Just in case I can’t get 0 TDS RO tomorrow…

 

[Slocke]

Not easily. ICP or individual tests to rule things out. Or you could try and find a local water report but of course that would only tell you so much.

The clam is a goner. I’m sorry.

 

[i cant think]

We have a survivor so far, but it’s on the clock…

I hope it pulls through. It looks better than the previous photo.

 

[i cant think]

Less than 24 hours after a FW dip, not looking good - I’ve put it into a bucket of water that’s floating in the tank.

I did unfortunately lose this guy, I have a friend who I’m going to allow to paint the shell and bring it back to life with neon paint
