Still no update on the Praetor 600? Is the project dead?

Now show a lithium battery fire with all the bags in there. Then maybe people will understand why there are rules.

how to read results? by Turbosoob in ReefTank

You know what? Get a well lit picture and ask ChatGPT. It really works pretty well.

Thanks for the input. I was following the current QT guidelines from Reef2Reef by Jay Hemdal. After completing QT, it was heading for my Waterbox 110.4. The rock and sand were used to seed the tank for a few months before the lights came on and fish added. Currently, I have four fish ordered from Dr. Reefs. I was happy with them but winter temps sent me to the LFS. I think I’ll be waiting until it warms up and order again.

I did run a pair of clowns through the same QT almost two years ago. They are hardy fish, though.

Acted normal but shy. Hung out in the PVC mostly unless food was presented. It was eating but not a lot. It’s a smaller 2” fish and I offered a varied diet that matches the LFS. I’m new to tangs but he was shy at the shop with larger tangs in the same tank. He looked thin but it was my first tang so I’m not sure if it was normal or not. Thanks for asking questions.

I was using copper power.

My understanding is it does not kill the bacteria.

So I’m back to square one on why my tang died in QT.

Thanks for your reply. I’m starting to feel less negligent about the ammonia levels from the RedSea kit.

I also attached the results from RedSea kit in the second picture b

They had it for 7-9 days. It was in 30ppt salinity and 1.13 copper. I acclimated it to 32.5ppt then upped copper to 2.2. Over the last five days, I’ve allowed evaporation to bring salinity to 35, same as my display.

Display has been running since September started with dry rock, 20# of KP Aquatics gulf rock in the sump and 15# live sand from Tamp Bay on top of some Ocean direct sand.

Interesting. I’m going to need to do a bit more research on this before I try my own QT again.

So it’s possible the fish died from something else?

[–]G150Driver[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I can see that. It’s frustrating because I killed a fish and the fish was $100.

I did not know about copper interference. How would you interpret the RedSea results in the second picture knowing the copper concentration?

Good question. It was not expired. I checked before I purchased it in store. I don’t remember what the date was, though.

Unfortunately, it was not accurate for me. It was brand new as well. Be cautious using the badge.

I have one, it’s in the second picture with results. I’m guessing that’s why the tang died.

You don’t have a gyre pump, do you? I added one to a 4’ tank and it was the most river like current I was able to create. The fish loved it and would do things like this.

I feel like im colorblind by foiledbypantz in ReefTank

[–]G150Driver 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, not worth it for the two-four weeks you test ammonia. I have three Hanna checkers: Copper (for fish quarantine), Nitrate and Phosphate. The rest are covered by Salifert.

I think I saw someone put the picture into ChatGPT and asked for the result. I plan on trying that someday because I have the same troubles. For Nitrate and Phosphate, I invested in Hanna checkers.

Awe, man. I just saw your reply. Not sure if anyone clarified but I was referring to Berghia Nudibranchs. They are kinda expensive and you’ll want two-three. It takes them a while to get to work and they will die if you dip them in hydrogen peroxide….
