Nice CB, your tangs must like the GHA. What are your nitrate/phosphate levels?

 

love the CB and GSP.. make sure you upgrade to uvl pc bulbs your next time for replacements.. I swear by them as I use the 14k and 454nm myself..

 

Nitrates are 15 a little high but i have been busy and havent had to time to work on it. Ill get to it soon but i dont know what my phoshates are i dont have a test kit for that.

 

you probly got a little phos. in your tank with those nitrates from your algae growth. old bulbs can/will grow algae too.. how old are those bulbs?

 

I think it looks great.. I really want a sailfin tang..

 

Looks good Mark...What do you have as a clean up crew? A few snails would help with the hair algae. It would be a good idea to get a test kit so you will know what your levels are.

 

Hey mark, looks good! i notice your sailfin has a little bit of HLLE. this can be caused from an electrical current traveling through the water or else a poor diet.
To fix it you can 1. test for electrical current in the water and add a grounding probe. 2. feed more nori/seaweed. and 3. go and purchase some pure vitamin C pills. add about 2000mg to your tank twice a day and also allow your tang's food to soak in Vitamin C for a few minutes before you feed him.

Hope he recovers nicely
