tank

if the rock isnt glued together becareful of what fish and stuff you put in there. you dont want to have the rock tumble and break the tank, someone said you need a top for wrasse's. ive never had one jump and i had 5 of them in a 62g tank. looking good so far

 

[Zuska]

thanks for the tip but i put one rock onto another and tocuhed each angle and it wont fall for sure im really positive it wont... i dunno when i should toss in my yellow tang in there. i need pods from somewhere. anyone know where i can get a bottle for a good price?

 

[Chiefmcfuz]

Yellow tangs are vegetarians they eat seaweed if you are feeding either formula 2 or vegetarian foods you can put the tang in once the tank is done with it's cycle.

ok how you like my tank? is it better?

 

[Harif87]

Zuska, did you fix your plumbing problems? If so i would say things seem alright. What are your water readings at, how often do you top off, how often do you change water etc. We cant tell you much more unless we know the details..

It looks better than it was when started, but it seems like there is more to improve on.

 

[Zuska]

yes the problems had been fixed... my last reading which was a week ago were
ammonia 0ppm
ph 7.8
nitrate 0ppm
nitire 0ppm

have any more recent readings? Also you should be testing for calc and alk too. You use RO/DI water? if not i find it hard to belive that your nitrates are at 0. What test kits are you using? Tests like API are known to be not so accurate.

Also, how often do you top off and do water changes? What regular maintenence do you run on the tank? Any signs of nuisance algae?

Its a good thing you got your plumbing fixed. What alot of people dont understand is that fire is a real hazard and is NOT something that happens one in a million. One must be real careful when mixing electricity and salt water.

But it sounds like there were improvments. Just make sure to tie up your loose ends and figure out what you need to do in order to do this right.

yea rodi i do use. i dont 5-10gallon water changes every sunday.
