Sauced and Confused (Lost Remix)

Just now catching up on the week you've had. Really sorry about all your troubles... Hoping 2023 treats you better! (We'll just plan for 2023 to start in February to give you time to finish off -um, I mean catch - that last wrasse)

Hugs from Texas

If it's not out by Sunday, I'm going in after it. I'll tear all the rock back out if I have to.

I was thinking this is just 2022.2. 2023 will be better

Unsure if I'm trying to help that fish at this point..

Yk….you could……

Wrassehole 4. Lost 0

View attachment 2961543

I watched it hit the sand on the right side. Placed the egg crate dividers all the way down, removed every rock on that side. Combed every inch carefully, nothing. Combed it less carefully, still nothing. Moved ALL THE SAND through egg crate... That summamabitch is just ticking me off now.

Fish will have been out of the tank a week, tomorrow. Timer still hasn't started..

UGH i assume this is for catching that last one? are you combing "up" or to the side? When I had to catch my own wrasse, my tank was small enough that I could see where it dove but noticed that it could still move in the sand to swerve away from my hand. Granted it's not like it could move that much tho.

are you looking for help with this last pita

I figured you'd want to go diving once the rocks are out.

Are there any reasons why eyuphilla will bail out and die within a few days? Would anyone know what causes this?

 

[Lost in the Sauce]

There are a couple reasons.

By bail out, do you mean the head melts, or detached from the skeleton and floats off?

Detached and floats off, apparently our TDS coming out of our RO was pretty high but would that impact them that much?

That depends what the solid is that's getting through.

Wild swinging parameters is the number one reason I see blamed for polyp bail out.

I've had them bail when the torch fell into the sand damaging a head.

 

[tcarstens4]

Our parameters are:7.91 PH 8.0alk 687 calcium 1344 mag

Our parameters are:7.91 PH 8.0alk 687 calcium 1344 mag

cal is way too high

 

[Lost in the Sauce]

Our parameters are:7.91 PH 8.0alk 687 calcium 1344 mag

You may want to recheck the calcium.

If that number is correct, it's like 20% above normal thresholds.

Do you dose calcium?
What salt and what SG are you running?

 

[tcarstens4]

We have a calcium reactor and we use the purple box of reef crystals and what does that abbreviation stand for?

Right now our RODI is putting out 10 tds even after replacing all the membranes

Not good. Is the resin new? It should be only putting out 0 maybe 1 if that.

filling up O2 rn

Is that in the container or in-line? in-line should definitely be 0, but depending on the container and the TDS-meter it doesn't necessarily have to be 0 once it's in the container (IME i have seen readings around 2-7).

 

[tcarstens4]

In line 7 out was 8 higher out then in, changed everything except the resin only been up since may and it's a six stage and the calcium is high, but its been that high for a long time

That's too high. I change at 3.

That could be 10 ppm of lead...

You may need to add stages
