Yes, Something wrong with your system and husbandry.
That's why I'm here. So, p04 is diffenately my problem.. excess amounts being introduced through some form or fashion? What can I do to improve my husbandry skills and/ or set-up? I can write out my entire routine in reguards to maintence, feeding, Livestock, equiptment, ect... Please ask! I'm sure you don't need me to write a book... but what's your thoughts on what's going on and I'll do my best to correct them or minimize thier negative effects.
You mentioned feeding.
I feed your typical Ocean Nutrition flakes, switched up daily between Formula 1, 2 and Prime Reef. Once per week I'll feed thawed Mysis & Krill (rinsed & strained). I keep Nori for the Tangs, on occassion I'll soak it in Selcon. They're not touching the HA. I'll cut back to feeding every other day... they are all fat and healthy.
W/C's?
My entire system volume is around 250g. I change out 30g every two weeks. I alternate between Reef Crystals and Coral Pro when buckets get empty. Currently on a Reef Crystals Bucket. Yes.. you guessed it. 32g Brute mixing tote! I do have a Food Grade 55g polypropylene drum. I used it to store RO/DI. Havn't used it in sometime though. Should I start using this for SW mix? Source water is from a 5 stage RO/DI unit. Current TDS 003. My DI resin is about half spent. I have new DI resin, just didn't know at what point to change it out.. 005?
Flow..
The tank is a 96w x 24d x20t room divider style with overflows on the ends. Return pumps are moving around 1700gph with head-loss. Koralia Evo 1400 x2, Koralia Evo 1050 and older K4 set-up on RKE wave function (was trying for gyre effect), rock work consist of two islands. In general, 3-4" off the back wall.
I know I'm throwing alot out there, questions and info wise, but I DO want to improve my hubandry skills and Reef. I've enjoyed alot of success with other Reef Tanks and want to with this one as well. Any thoughts or suggestions are greatly appriciated. I'll post some pics after the lights come on.. sometimes pics are worth a thousand words.
