Hello,
First off in new to this forum and I'm excited to have another source of information for this awesome hobby.and Thank you in advance for any help ! Long story, I first had a 40 gallon hexagon tank for about a year, everything thing was great and fish never died off. So I decided to move to a 55 gallon rectangle (so much easier to clean) and that's basically when the trouble started. I moved 100%of the water to the new tank and added 20 lbs of live sand. First I lost my coral beauty, then a mandrane blenny, a file fish, followed by my two clowns (which I believe got brooklynella ) then two chromis. All of them within a month and a half. Along with snails and my emerald crab in-between all that. My ammonia and nitrite is 0 PH is about 8.0 and my nitrate is about 30. I was keeping my salinity at 1.026, which the more I read the more I want to drop it to 1.022. I'm very frustrated everything was going great then I decided to change tanks Thank you again for any help. Ps I have one chromis, one diamond back goby, a star fish and hermit crabs left. They look fine and are eating well. Any help/ideas is greatly appreciated!
