Everything Seems To Be Settled

[RAYRAY]

Well It Is Now June 18th, My Tank Has Been Running For About 2 Months Now And I Had My Ups And Downs. But Now Everything Seems To Be Settled. I Do Have Brown Algea But That Seems To Be Changing. By Changing I Mean That My Clown Fish Seems To Be Pushing It Around. Oh, The Clown Fish Is Doing Very Well, He Loves Eating Again. Frozen And Flake And Brine Shrimp. So I Did Get Very Lucky With Him. I Really Did Think I Was Going To Lose Him For A Little Bit. I'm Still Going To Add A Sump And Some True Live Rock But For Now I'm Going To Start Planning Additions To My Tank. I'm Thinking Maybe 3 Green Chromis Along With 3 Red-hermits And 5 Snails. I Will Post Some Photos Of The Tank Soon.

Will Do , So Far All My Water Tests Have Been Right On !! I Have A Feeder Cone In The Tank So That If He Doesnt Eat Everything, I Just Remove It.. It Actually Works Pretty Well. This Way I Dont Have All Uneating Food Laying On The Bottom Or Getting Into My Filter.

Well, It Seems That Everytime I Talk About My Tank Things Start Happening...... Today I Woke Up To See A 35 Gallon Cloud. Thats Right The Whole Tank Is Clouded. All The Brown Algea Is Gone ?????? Mator Seems To Be Fine, Still Eating Swimming But I Most Likely Just Jinx That Too ....(lol) Any Ideas Why This Would Happen ???

A cloud could indicate a bacterial bloom. Test your water parameters and tell us what they are. You might have an ammonia spike.

sorry to hear that ray..check parameters...do a 20-30 water change..clean filters..add carbon..i remember you said you had chemi pure, rinse it well and put it back ...check if theres somthing dead.. foul odor...to know if theres bacteria..take a hershea kisses ( chocolate) put it in a plastic cup ..drop some water from your tank in it ..put in a cool place not so hot not so cold...but were noone can reach it or near food..if in 2 days aprox. there some white stuff like little bubbles..foamy, is bacteria..

I'll Check My Water And Do A Test.. Nothing Dead I Just Have A Tomatoe Clown In There Right Now.....you Know I Did Clean My Filter Media, Maybe There Is Another Bloom But I Didnt Touch My Bio-wheel.
