Smite's Stout CDA - 205G
- Thread starter Smite
- Start date
I know when I started my 90g I had all kinds of heavy metals show up. I did rinse once, but it wasn’t enough. Nearly lost everything from my previous tank. I’ve already rinsed my nano several times, but when I mix up the fresh saltwater, I’m hitting it hard with polyfilter, cuprisorb and carbon, then sending off an ICP. I hope you find the source. Keep us posted.

That could definitely be a possibility then. I’ll order some cuprisorb amd get that in the mix. Maybe ill do a large water change. My uptake has completely halted now.
Before the holidays I had ordered a piece from CE, CC hellboy. It came yesterday in the mail. I dripped that and a freebie he added, up in smoke over night. That’s telling me this isn’t a delayed reaction from the move. Something is up for sure.

i used cuprisorb and this stuff to remove my metals. tbh the detox stuff worked best i think
Getting my ass humbled right now. The chromis are panting heavy and I lost the eight line wrasse in QT along with 1 chromis. So they’ve got something.
I don’t see any pink or sore like spots. The wrasse was stuck to the tunze so it’s hard to tell what’s what.
I pulled all rock and sand from the tank. Dosed kanaplex for now. I’ve got some chloroquine phosphate I think I’ll dose that, possibly along side GC for the remaining chromis unless anyone knows of complications from doing those at the same time?

sorry to hear man, when it rains it pours
i'm not familiar with chloroquine myself, from following some of the humblefish vendors not much touches uronema these days and most just refuse to stock chromis anymore. there's a canadian vendor that was experimenting with tea tree oil baths, pure metronidazole, along with formalin baths iirc, quite the treatment

i think that's the latest he has said anything about it

I’m assuming that your nitrates and phosphates are good. You mentioned that you had cyano lately. You might need more beneficial bacteria. I think you should add some microbacter 7 and microbacter clean to your tank. Just a suggestion.
Chasing heavy metals is like chasing a ghost. If you suspect heavy metals, then dilution via water change may help. But it’s like a ghost, not sure if it exists.
