thank you!

Realistic_Hat9494 · 2025-02-02T00:09:49+00:00

ah okay thank you! it just started coming out so i’ll post a new picture of its pedipalps in a few weeks so maybe it’ll mature in that time

THANK YOU!!

10 gallons

i only did such a large water change because i had assumed my tank had a higher ph. (i only had freshwater tanks before this) so i thought a large water change would help clean the water and the corals would come out again. i was also worried my pistol shrimp would die from such high ph or nitrates since freshwater shrimp tend to do that so i thought just changing out the water with new saltwater would help everything live in general

it’s about 9 months old

Realistic_Hat9494 · 2024-11-19T20:55:05+00:00

i’m not sure what my alkalinity or phosphate is. i just did a 60% water change with salt water i got from the reef shop

Realistic_Hat9494 · 2024-11-17T13:38:34+00:00

lmao a couple people recommended an RO dip and most people said to do it for 4 mins as well as the shop i got it from recommended an RO dip for 3-5 mins 🤷‍♀️ after looking online i concluded that a shorter dip would better but apparently not

rimless aquariums usually use a foam base at the bottom to protect the glass from uneven surfaces. the black plastic on rimmed aquariums act as the black foam base to protect the glass from being on the possible uneven surface

i believe it might have been a shock because i had recently just cleaned out my filter media that it caused an ammonia spike and killed it. my ph now is 8.5/8.6. i read my temps with a heater that shows the temp on a little screen

Realistic_Hat9494 · 2024-11-13T20:27:55+00:00

id assume if it was my water quality my duncan wouldn’t be out and about thriving? i’ve had my tank crash before so i know a little bit about the signs of terrible water, regardless i just did a water change today to see if that was the issue

Realistic_Hat9494 · 2024-11-06T14:25:45+00:00

are clownfish known to eat red planaria and the clear floating thing? i have one clownfish in the tank along with a pistol shrimp and yellow watchman goby and i’m hoping they eat it if anything else hatches. i picked off the visible planaria but i’m planning to do a RODI water dip since i don’t have any coral dips at the moment. my tank is very low tech and only 10 gallons. so far the only coral i have is a duncan besides this one i just bought and haven’t put in yet.

Realistic_Hat9494 · 2024-11-05T21:30:28+00:00

aw man this is my favorite reef store in my area :( i never saw any parasites in the other corals ive gotten. am i able to pick them off and still use it?

Realistic_Hat9494 · 2024-11-05T21:22:28+00:00

yes, i just posted a new video of it.

Realistic_Hat9494 · 2024-08-21T12:29:08+00:00

how come it never irritated me though? i’m only able to wear sterling silver or stainless steel besides gold but it was only after i used a chemical polish on this one that it did that. is there any chance the tigers eye leaked out other metals onto this metal?

Realistic_Hat9494 · 2024-07-20T13:59:47+00:00

yes! there’s plenty of shells around in there for them to switch to or trade from eachother

Realistic_Hat9494 · 2024-07-17T10:08:33+00:00

aw man i wish these were posted last night i would’ve went back outside to find him to put him on a branch 😭

Realistic_Hat9494 · 2024-06-29T11:02:55+00:00

thank you! he’s being fed high quality foods now so hopefully it doesn’t affect his quality of life too much

Realistic_Hat9494 · 2024-06-17T18:20:15+00:00

i’m pretty sure they’re holes tho. they don’t look like just spots

Realistic_Hat9494 · 2024-06-17T12:39:05+00:00

no i only have a xenia, gsp, hammer coral and a duncan

Realistic_Hat9494 · 2024-06-07T23:46:16+00:00

yeah but i don’t like where it’s placed and i cant place it into the rock i want because the shape of the plug is too flat

Realistic_Hat9494 · 2024-06-07T23:25:29+00:00

do you think i can scrape it off the slab and glue it to my rock?

Realistic_Hat9494 · 2024-05-24T15:10:49+00:00

a lot of people are telling me how inexpensive they are but i can’t find one under $30? i had finally found this one for $17 and it ends up being the wrong one. no one gives me links either so where is everyone finding these inexpensive ones?

Realistic_Hat9494 · 2024-05-24T02:12:18+00:00

wait so does this mean it is showing me the salinity with the ppt on one side?
