Well guys having alittle trouble here, first it started with my leaks, fixed those, then i broke a dart (first to ever break a new black dart), then a bulkhead leak, so i finally got everything in the tank and it was going good, then microbubbles, still have those, havent figured it out yet....
THEN bam diatoms all over this reef ceramic rock! but i was warned about this, figured it wouldnt get worse.... WRONG there now its covering everything, reef ceramic rock, LR, everything..... i mean its bad.... even the starboard is covered in it...
now heres where i am hoping someone can help me maybe Bob, Gary, Madison, Edward, anyone....
i am wondering about my dosing....
right now i am dosing
.50ml of start2 a day split into 2 doses
5 drops of bak/food 7 2 times a week....
2.65 ml of zeoliths...
all of about a 265 gallon net tank...
BUT the kicker is i have to clean my the viewing pannels atleast once a day if NOT 2 times a day...... its like a greenish colored flim....
SO what should i do?
also i think i am loosing a coral from the move, a greenish colored millie, it used to be one of my favorites, but not its starting to have tissue fall off of it....
anyway the only bright thing that has happened during all of this is my BK is really kicking butt pulling out a BUNCH of stuff... also i finally found a healthly regal angel, thats eating like no other and doesnt touch any corals, SPS, zoos, or acans....
anyway i am hoping maybe next weekend to fix this microbubble thing.... and i just got done with like a 40 gallon water change.... and i might be replacing 2 of the darts with barracudas, but still debating about that....
can someone please give me alittle incouragment? today is not turning out to be a good day......
should i hold all dosing? dose more?
i should have a hanna colormeter for PO4 coming soon, i will know more on tuesday....
also i will check and report back about the flow going through the zeo reactor, but i think its on target, but will doubble check just to make sure....
anyway some help me please
thanks!
