My Tideline AIO 11.3 tank

[Dburr1014]

Dipping kills? I dipped and my goni is now half dead?????? My stylo isn’t looking too good, my mystery I think digita coral ain’t looking too hot…
Idk what to do!

What did you use for dip?

 

[stewy14]

What did you use for dip?

Rx

 

[Dburr1014]

Rx

I've never used RX, I'm hoping you read the directions for the dose.
Does it say in the directions how long to tip for? How much is the dose?

30 drops per gallon. I used 2.5gal so 75 drops, 10-15(-20) minutes, I did it for around 15
But my temp was kinda in the low 65-73’s…… in the bucket…
Maybe that contributed?

 

[Dburr1014]

Probably didn't help. Do you have a QT and get them back up to temperature? Going to have to get some gentle flow on them and maybe filter floss or something.

I don’t have qt setup, since it’s a 10gal, the goni has gentle flow, but the digita and stylo don’t rlly, but they looking better
The goni, I hid it in a corner, it still has light, but nearly no flow

And I do run ff, loves getting stuck in power head once in a while XD(very very small bits will rarely but still sometimes come out of return… and accumulate in the friggin wave maker)

I lost my yuma, like Idk where it is in my tank, for the past month I have been trying to find another mushroom, I CANT FIND IT, IT NEVER DIED TOO. im getting so mad at this tank
and I figured out why there so much poop on the tank floor
my aio does not have bottom tank filtering, only top... so like this:
l. l. l
l l
l l
l l
l l
________

I want the top AND bottom inlet slits.... so there's algae everywhere cuz I disturbed the sandbed and poop came out ...........
RIGHT NEXT TO THE SLITS TOO... well, where they should be at least....

 

[stewy14]

So last week
All mushrooms r dead except one(sorry I let u down rob)
War coral dead
Frogspawn dead, and that coral was the closest to my heart, first ever coral from sbb
Goni dead


BUT!!!!!
Idk why, but everything else is now thriiiviinnnggg
Stylo that was on the brink on death from algae is now making a full recovery, leather is growing super fast
Tenuis r thriving, they r growing so quickly too!
Acans r recovering
Hammer is splitting
Zoas r doing fine
Nem is great
Yeah! Everything is thriving but I still feel like heck that I lost over $400 in coral in 1 week

Mixed tanks are tough. Soft coral have toxin that kills hard. Have to use GAC.

Couple weeks ago softies/some lps died due to something releasing toxins
I removed carbon, resin, the whole shabang
All algae went away, Mille and tenuis was thriving
And a week ago, I over fed by accident
Phosphate spike!!!!
Tenuis died, Mille still alive
Back to having gha
Anybody got recommendations of good fclownfish food that doesn’t excrete po4?
