Urgh seriously.

[Sarah24!]

They didn’t have focus (lfs) but they did have vitality which I soaked the food in and then feed to them. I tested water parameters and I even had lfs double test me with Api and redsea. But I have no ammonia nitrates or nitrite, phosphates where undetectable, which csme be true and was done on both tests. I know this because I have still some small amounts of hair alage. All corals are fine and fish except the one. Cal was at 420
And alk at 7 but that’s normal for lower nutrients. I’m kinda at a loss because I have only run carbon n the tank for 2 weeks skimmer is nuts do to dosing prazipro so cup is off. I have feed seed weed around the clock for 24 hours, and increased feeding just for that one tang and to get the others even fatter, and dosed reefroids just to keep take up. Not sure how I’m this low and it’s the lowest I have ever been and 60 days since last water change. Definitely I’m in uncharted territory for my tank and all coral are doing actually really good now. But I can’t figure where my phosphates went and I’m pretty sure it was not the active carbon well I don’t think it was.

Are your creatures in any distress? I bet it is pretty nontoxic. The is no ammonia in urine, unless one of the kids has a rare metabolic disorder (I’m an MD.) I would expect a bump in your nutrient level. I would just do a 20% change and test for the next few days.

Isn’t it funny that people think that? Must be the smell.

I agree (Nurse Practitioner). Unless one of them has an uncontrolled disorder or disease I’d just dilute it with a water change. Maybe if one of them had a urinary tract infection certain bacteria could cause a problem but otherwise urine is sterile.

Sorry to say but boys will be boys

Hello,

Okay so I’m sorry kinda dropped the ball for updates. Well I removed the carbon from my tank and added seaweed, daily, and aka selcon and seaweed delight. My Lt tang definitely was eating and swimming but his looks just went still south. I also treated with prazipro where I removed my carbon and shut the uv off.

Well Sunday morning he was no where to be found . So I’m down two of main tangs which drives me crazy. Luckily still have my tommini tang, and purple tang and blue tang, and Bellus angel. The six fish I never worry about the 5 blue and green chromies and clown (who deserves to be served with chips).

I then today found a rare black shoulder tang and after more research by me realized it wasn’t but kinda let my hopes down. Will definitely replace the Naso but not sure with what else. Been thinking for certain Naso tang again, and either a powder brown/blue tang, mimic tang, or an Achilles tang (just one of those plus Naso).

for some reason I’m the history of my tank I keep reading no nitrates or phosphates, but I still see some small patches of green hair alage. So I have been dosing reef roids to build that up. But it’s terrible when one loses coral, worse when you lose fish.

Sorry to hear of fish loss.
This is a tough time of year for fish shipments to your LFS. At minimum, ask to watch fish be fed and see how it interacts with others at LFS as well as its' breathing, body and fin health, etc. A Naso is a must have.
Continue fortified diet and water change schedule.

Ahh hi,

So it’s been awhile and I have no idea how the house or tank are. I was in a severe accident Tuesday morning and still in icu. It’s not been a fun time as it’s taking me so long to type this. But I was told I was hit head on by another driver at 55 mph. I have broken both of my femur bones and had to have reconstruction surgery on both legs, and a lot more stuff. But it’s why I’m quiet because it’s super pain full (and I have an epidural still in). has I heal and recover I will be open to show more what happens when hit head on.

It’s extremely painful and sadly having both femurs broken is not even the serious injuries. FYI it takes me forever now to type, (long story).
