Started JAN19 so about 4 weeks ago. Got my fish in a 40g QT, used fritz turbostart to jump start bacteria. Running 4xHOBs with seachem matrix and filter floss and 2 sponge filters. Started ramping copper power up to 2.25 over a week. Been doing 25% water change, 30ppm salinity, every week. Nitrates are high (75+ppm), no fuge, but everything else is great. Ammonia is nowhere in sight.
All fish 1-2 inch
Flame angel
Coral beauty
Male/female clowns
Yellow tang
Blue tang
Foxface
Two weeks ago, blue tang started having a spot around his eye. Ive since ramped up the nori in the diet. Then last week the flame angel got a whitish patch on his head (both sides) and jaw line. Its doesnt look like velvet or anything but more like a patch of faded whitish color. Hard to see in picture but its clear in person, i thought i was crazy but my wife asked me if i had noticed so im positive somethings up. Finally my small clown appears to have a few spots appear like ich..im not sure how since im running copper power? They have been reduced to just 1 spot now over the last week. Any suggestions?
