Blotchy Antheias Was in QT at the same time as Timnicki Wrasse, but he only survived a few days, have had bad luck with the BA tried three so far and none have lasted past 10 days. One looked bad from day one the other two looked ok, then just turned south. The last one did get pop eye, that was treated with maracyn Two at half the dosage unsuccessful. Had the same issue with two Fowleri Tangs one DOA and the other lasted one day replaced the Fowlers with a Lavender tang that's now in QT and that completes my tang list. All 4 tangs Achilles, Chevron, Lavender and Naso will be added to the DT, which already has a Blond Naso, Desjardini, Purple Tang in about two weeks @4FordFamily feel free to add suggestions

Video of setting up tank for bubble treatment. I only ran it for about 15 min and saw a lot of Slime being remove from Acros especially a few that are close to each other and having warfare. The plan is to run this 10 hours at night. The water even appeared clearer after just 15 min. Perceptual? Maybe.

This one shows the gunk accumulated on the surface after a 30 min run, cleared by the overflow. I'm impressed by these test, so I'm setting up a nightly schedule to see if this help my coral growth. Immediately see increase in ORP

What are you using to create the bubbles? Limewood airstone? Where is it located and where do you draw the air from?

@gettaReef Right now I'm using the blue air stone, just ordered 2 limewood from amazon, I placed the stone right below my Reef Dart return intake and I'm using a petco air pimp

And where do you draw the air from? I've read that the best place is outside, but I'm not sure how doable that is for most people
