I do have carbon running. I don’t think it was Dino I’m pretty sure it was cyno I was fighting. Wouldn’t the water changes be helping a little though?

Are you using RODI

 

[Louisa James]

Do a large wc. Run carbon.
U are topping off with rodi?

I’m running carbon, yes I use rodi. Did a 50% water change this weekend.

I’m running fleece filter media. I do have some poly filter I use in my fresh water tank can I just put it in my fleece socks?

 

[Cell]

Yeah that works.

 

[Louisa James]

Yeah that works.

Will do as soon as I go home for lunch.

 

[Jilly92]

Yes

Ok maybe put fresh carbon in too

Well yesterday I had the chance for someone to bring me a Green Killing Machine UV from about 200 miles away hooked it up last night and water is crystal clear this morning. Still a small smell but not as bad. Now hopefully things can repair them selves. I lost two corals and bubble tip from this. I will be ordering a better Uv from BRS but in a pinch the green killing machine seems to be helping.

Tank looks a lot better! I think everyone should have a UV on hand for times like this

Yeah I didn’t figure it was either but I figured I had nothing to loose at this point. It wasn’t going to hurt it worse then it already was.

Woot WOOT 1 win my tangs breathing is better and she is eating again. She got really skinny through this whole thing though I was going to loose her. Now I just hope my corals recover.

Congrats ! I find it hard to go back to not using a UV after using it , it’s just so many benefits
