I hope some one here to can tell me what went wrong....i cant stop pulling my hair out.
I added 1 chromis to my new 45 gallon saltwater tank after 3 weeks of cycling...the fish looked healthy for 24 hours in the tank and then died :bye2: :cry: :bye2:
before it died the fish was swimming around the surface before finally deciding to settle on the sand bed slowly moving its fins and as if gasping for air. next morning when i woke up it was dead.
I have 45 lbs of live rock and 40lbs of live sand with almost 30x water circulation.
I have been using seachem stability as well.
I checked all the parameters and they were fine e.g. ammonia 0, nitrite 0, nitrate 5, salinity 1.023, pH 8.2 and temp 78 degrees.
Can any one please tell me what could have been the reason for pioneer to depart?
