The tank with the LR is two weeks old now and all parameters are reading Zero already.Ph is 8. Does this mean the cycling is over and done with? I understood that it takes a pretty long time to cycle thru.

Also, the clown has a thin white film on one of it's eye... is it an infection or is it due to temp. fluctuation? Temp. flactuation being the only thing that has been going up and down. The temp varies between 82 - 86 F.


Would appreciate your comments.

i am by no means an expert but i believe your temp may be a little high. you may want to do a little research on it.

take a look here Reef Aquarium Water Parameters by Randy Holmes-Farley - Reefkeeping.com.
