Es esto sobredosificación?

[premmas]

Hola,
En las ultimas semanas está apareciendo mucha alga con burbuja.
Puede deberse a una sobredosificación....
Fijaros en el cristal del fondo del acuario.
El cristal de delante se ensucia mas a menuda que antes....

Hi, in last weeks, algaes with bubles are appearing.
Can be due a overdosing?
See at the back side.

Hi Juan Carlos, you're reef looks fine but for the back pane. I'd recommend scraping the back pane If you are not accumulating darkish film on your LR or front pane, then the zeo-quantities maybe reduced slightly. It's difficult to determine your corals's coloration from the picture, but if they are strong, not dark, & your LR does not have a slimey-film/air-bubbles then your dosing regimen is OK. Bob

Hi Bob,
Front pane after 4 days.
How you can see in the picture there is a darkish film specially on front pane. On the LR there is it in little areas.
The coral's coloration is good, I think

[Aged Salt]

WOW , thnx. Juan Carlos, definitely excess biofilm, therefore, reduce Bak/Food, & AAHC by an amount of 50%. Continue the same dosage of Start2. Plz. update us in a wk or so, Bob

OK,
Mañana me toca nuevo cambio de zeolitas.
mi dosis actual es la siguiente:

Tomorrow I have to do a new exchange zeolits
current dosage is:

bak: 2 gotas 3x/semana
food7: 1 gota 3x/semana
start2: 0.1 ml. 2x/dia
AAHC: 4 gotas/dia
PIF: 6gotas 2x/semana
SPG: 2 gotas/dia parando 1 semana cada 2.
C-V: sin dosificar

Bob, que me recomiendas ahora.
Bob, What is your recomendation now?,

[Aged Salt]

Juan Carlos, first scrape all the accumulates of your reef. Add an extra 1/3 ltr. zeolites for this next 6wks. cycle, 25% extra carbon & pump the zeolite filter an extra time or two above the norm on a daily basis for the next 6wks, dose the following:

1)dose Bak 2 drops every other day for 5 doses, then dose 2 drops Bak 2x's/wk, ie. on Monday & Friday
2)dose Food7 1 drop every other day for 5 doses[on opposite day's that Bak is dosed] then 1 drop 2x's/wk, ie. on Wednesday & Sunday
3)dose Start2 3 drops 2x's/day, every day.
4)dose AAHC 2 drops daily
5)dose PIF 4 drops 2x's/wk
6)obtain C-V when available & dose 6 drops daily.

Keep us updated, Bob

Gracias Bob,
Ya he realizado el cambio y empezado la nueva dosis.
Os mantendré informaros de la evolución.

Thanks Bob,
I have already carried out the new exchange and started the new dosage.
I will report about the evolution

[Aged Salt]

Thnx, Juan Carlos, do use C-V as it does everything good for our reefs & keep us updated on your impressions, Bob

[Supertutu]

Juan Carlos, Bob tiene razon, deberias usar C-V notaras un gran cambio en tus corales

[premmas]

lo sé, lo sé.
Si el problema es que no lo habia en la tienda cuando lo pedí.
Ahora ya ha llegado y en breve dispondré de ello.

Una pregunta para Bob, respecto a la dosificación del Start2.
me dices que añada 3 gotas 2x/dia cuando antes añadia 0.1 ml 2x/dia
He calculado que esas 3 gotas son aprox. 0.15 ml.

Es esto correcto, o deberia reducir la dosis por ej. a 0.05 ml. ?

I know, I know.
C-V was not available in the pet shop when I requested it, but now it have already arrived and as soon as posible I will start to dose it

One question for Bob regarding start2 dosage.
You tell me that I dose 3 drops 2x/day when I dosed 0.1 ml 2x/day before.
I have calculated 3 drops are ~0.15 ml.
Is it right or I must reduce the dosage to 0.05 ml, for instance?

Gracias

[Aged Salt]

Thnx. Juan Carlos, as always a big thank you for your translations & help with others To rid the biofilm in your case we'll decrease Bak/Food/AAHC while dosing more Start2 at 0.15ml 2x's/day Bob

[premmas]

De nada Bob, Gracias a tí por tu importante sopporte con zeovit.
Os pongo la foto de arriba pero con el cristal limpio para que observeis la coloración de los corales en esa area del acuario.

your welcome Bob,
Thanks you for your important support in zeovit system.
I show the same picture that above but with the front pane without biofilm, so you can see the coral's coloration in this zone

Tengo una duda sobre la nueva dosificación de bak/food
Antes lo dosificaba junto (a la vez) y debia detener el skimmer durante 1 hora,
Ahora que tengo que dosificar un producto cada dia, debo para el skimmer tambien cada dia, con cada producto?.

I have a doubt with bak/food dosage.
Before I dosed bak/food togheter (Simultaneously) and I turned off the skimmer for one hour.
But now, I have to dose bak/food every other day (on opposite day's).
Have I to turn off the skimmer every day for one hour?

Gracias

[Aged Salt]

Actually, Juan Carlos, one can dose all on the same day. In theory, alternate days dosing of the Bak & Food will utilize these products a little more efficiently, but for the ease of dosing Bak & Food, let's do these on the same days, so that the skimmer turn-off is not as often. Bob
