  1. I agree, what size tank is the purple tang in? Lets not forget that tangs are notorious for being ich prone.  If the living conditions are not right, I can see it being the culprit.

     

    I think he has a nuvo. Probably needs a larger tank.

  2. Ive never had to QT fish for ich. in the case of marine fish it is a sign that the fish are stressed out, Ich is always in the water but the fish are only able to contract Ich when there immune systems are weak due to a variety of reasons. I would suggest maybe adding some vitamin C or garlic to frozen food. Have you had any spikes in your water chemistry? being that the clowns have Ich as well I would think that theres something stressing them out or a weekend immune system. Are there any other fish in your tank?

  3. Maybe get some Alk to hand dose? As for the Cyano Increasing the flow was one of the best things to do. I would also use a brush and a syphon to physically remove it from your tank. this worked well for my cyano but i only had any on my rocks. I would maybe try some of the sand sifting cleanup crew. Also maybe a day or two of darkness works well. With all 3 I would say that would work most of the time. The ALK is a little tricky. Mine like to hover very close to yours with no dosing I've had few problems with cyano so I would try the Physically removing any remaining and get a handful of the sand sifting snail. I can't recall what they are called at the moment.

  4. Im planing on selling my 90 gallon glass tank to upgrade to a 180. Tank is in good condition just normal use.  I would like to  800. I may have other equipment  depending on what happens with the 180 and what I decide to use on that. 

    I may consider a trade for a radion gen 3 pro.

  5. Hello, As I'm approaching One year of owning this tank I figured I would restart my tank thread being it was lost when we had the site go down. I have learned A TON from doing this especially in my transition from Middle to high school I've been able to use much of my reef tank knowledge to my science classes.  I purchased my tank from another member of the forum back in July. Ive redone my rock 3 times now since I've gotten the tank. Once from accident and once from lack of proper flow. As of now most of my coral is in my frag tank from the new Aqua scape that took place yesterday. My battle with hair algae has finally come to an end and I'm happy to say I won! That battle lasted about 8 months. Lucky for me thats been my only main issue aside from some SPS die off from an Alk swing.
