hello, i have a problem with my reef tank. Ill start off by saying my tank is 65 gal overflow,tidepool2,berlin skimmer,4 powerheads,coralife hqi 150w115-130lbs of rock no substrate.Temp is 78 degress on average and specific gravity is 1.23. Actinics and daylight were just replaced ,however, problems were previous.The lights are on for 12hrs actinic and daylight is on for 10hrs. So heres my first question,could the "worn out" bulbs i replaced be the cause of the cyano?
Nitrates are 0, Phosphates are 0, calcium is 420,pH is 8.0,dkh is 7. thats all i can check atm
i have only one clown,a cleaner shrimp,coral banded shrimp,purple linkia,the cleanup crew,and one unknown beast that kills small fish at night. Also there is about a foot long bristle worm that eats dead snails (not sure if hes killing them-there is always the same small scarlet hermit crab in the mix everytime i see the worm out...not sure if they are in cahoots or what lol
enough rambling,the next question is-what is wrong with my frogspawn? Im pretty sure this white stuff is killing it and its hard to remove. its slimey and looks like a web or something. its kinda stringy looking. it sort of looks like a sponge maybe. the coral has been closed for a week and the centers are bubbled out it used to be so big
thanks for listening :invisible
