Hi all. A couple of my frikendt here in Denmark did make a test and both are showtime High Cu and PB...... Does any of you have an idea to where it would come from? I think like from feeding or anything?

Greetings Charlie

Exactly what is your Test reading ? Just because it shows red on Triton results doesn't necessarily mean it's high enough to cause harm to your inhabitants.

Do you use tap water? The first place I would check is the incoming water source. Rule that out then look at your supplements and foods. Also look for obvious things like screws, bolts, washers, any condensation building up on reflectors and pipe straps and dripping back into the system, etc.
 

When to mix up fish meal: When was the last time you tried a different brand of food for your reef?
