New tank syndrome in full effect. Seems every system i start I get diatoms followed by dinoflagellets. I've got it under control so far with manual removal and dosing Vibrant with weekly water changes. The bloom of dinos stripped the water to 0 for NO3 PO4 so my sticks paled out. I wont be suprised to see GHA once this runs its course and nutrients are available again. I also have some strange white bacterial slime so I've cut back on sponge power for now. For the most part everything is happy and my wife has been doing a great job caring for the tank while I'm out of town during the week.
This guys starting to act less shy and is now the boss of the tank
All these fish are complete pigs but this guy....surprised he can swim upright after i feed the tank.
Model citizen so far. I need to try and catch a top down of this guy sometime to show the highlights of blue around his face and fins.
Little Bangai Cardinal fish captive bred from the OGFrenchorn pad growing quick! Is pairing these guys up similar to pairing clownfish? 1 large 1 smaller?
TGC piece taking the lack of nutrients hard. The big 3 and lighting stable so far, so I'm pretty positive that is the culprit.
