Quick background... Owned a 50 gallon fish only saltwater tank about 20 years ago... Just getting back into it since my young daughter loves fish (especially nemo) so I figured id give it another shot. This time taking very detailed notes. Purchased CoralLife BioCube 29 on 5/19/16, man made (i think thats what you call it) rock about 30 lbs, carib sea arag alive live aragonite reef sand (40 lbs), added biomagnet clarifers and approx 20 gallons of CaribSea Sea-pure pre mixed seawater and started system.
On 5/21/16 i added 16oz Fritz Zyme 9 original reef safe live nitrifying bacteria.
5/22/16 water test, 1.025sg, 7.9ph, ammonia <.25, 0 rite, 0 rate. I added 2 ocellaris tank raised clowns ( approx 1inch in length)!and fed "clearly complete" 0.8 mm slow sink pellets by sustainable aquatics.
5/23/16 ran all 3 standard lights for 12 hrs and fed 1-2 pinches per day for next 7 days..... Now getting to my point finally lol
Added a lemonpeel angel, starburst coral on 5/29.. Angel injured eye and it started to cloud so i moved to QT and started antibiotics (kanaplex/ focus) for 6 days.. No improvement. LFS suggested fresh RO only bath for 5 minutes which i did. Did 75% water change in QT (JBJ cubey 3 gallon) and fed table shrimp with fresh garlic juice... Next day (today) eye was almost clear however lemonpeel had rapid breathing.. Checked quality and ammonia was high again so decided to move back to BC29. Hes been hiding with rapid breathing for around 3 hours now with very little movement... Real question is, is he going to be ok? Also noted redness around lips. Any thoughts comments would be greatly appreciated..sorry for rambling!!
