So I decided in December of '23 that I wanted to finally set up a reef tank. I had a 10 gallon laying around that wasn't being used so I fired it up to get my "feet wet". January I began cycling and got tired of looking at an empty tank and made the mistake of putting a couple fish in it. 1 clown, coral beauty, and a dottyback, (I knew the coral beauty would have to be relocated to a bigger tank) Within a week the coral beauty and dottyback both died, my own mistake. Then about mid-march I had the bright idea to get a second clown and a bubble tip ....... About 2 weeks later I wake up in the night, happen to look over at my tank, the water was so cloudy I couldn't see through the glass! The bubble tip had gotten caught up in my power head and both clowns was dead on the sanded. Only thing that was left was 2 baby emerald crabs I had gotten to help with algea and 2 zoa frags. At that point I realized I was doing to many things, to fast. Fast forward about 6 weeks later after things have somewhat calmed down in my tank I decided to place 4 more zoa frags, a kenya tree and some GSP. Now I had a little GHA in my tank so I thought I would try to dose it Vibrant because the emerald crabs wouldn't touch it. After thinking that the frags I brought I bought, brought in some red cyano, I'm reading post here on R2R that Vibrant has in fact cause cyano! So yesterday (May 30th) I dosed the tank with chemi pure, wake up this morning and begin vacuuming my sandbed, scrubbing rock with peroxide, deep filter clean and planning a 50% water change after the 48 hour mark is up. Now then, my question is this.....Should I or should I not continue to use Vibrant? Or is that more of a preventative measure rather that a solution? And now that everything has been stripped, cleaned back to square 1, do i even use Vibrant anymore?? I feel like I'm failing, but I understand part of it has been my impatience. LESSON LEARNED!
