Powder Blue Tang / Sand Sifting Goby / EcoTech Versa Water Change 

Jerry, that guy jumped the day you've left this comment.

Thank you. More to come :)

I love those guys, very under appreciated fish.

Thank you Peter!

Good idea, I'll try to track one down.

Thanks, so far - not a lot of luck, but I'm hopeful :D

I had some - but there is tons of space in the tank where they can hide and move to, plus there were a few other tangs in there so it worked out. But it is always a hit and miss.

Possible, I gave up on this filter

Thank you Yusef, if you click on the link in the description you can actually see my historical nitrate and phosphates measurements from the beginning of the tank. I aim for 5 ppm nitrates and 0.1 phosphates, but was never able to achieve this low phosphates in my tank - it is usually double of that.

@@TreasureCorals 🤦‍♂️ sorry I should’ve looked harder! I think your tank for sure has room for more growth!!! Reefing is a beyond crazy hobby it’s extremely complex ecosystem and biology going on inside one of these glass boxes I’ve had corals stay the same size for years when I was a beginner and I’ve also had the same ones double in size in a month when I figured out how to reef for growth Imo if you want the max amount of color and growth you’d wanna turn the skimmer way down and dry skim (pulling to much kills beneficial bacteria and pulls nutrients) Id run no filter socks and carbon dosing would also allow your corals to feed even more on excess nutrients/bacteria which in turn is max growth 🙂 Ps I think your good at .01-.03 phos I like to keep it low for coral calcification process Nitrates however I think as high as 30 good color and growth also gives room for higher alk and more par on the corals for even more growth

@@yusef54321 Excellent points, I also do not run carbon or filter socks on my tanks. The skimmer always runs on this tank and I try to run it on the dry side. Excellent points - I am a big believer in high nitrates.

Thank you Richard, I will first try the Oase clamps and then if that does not help will move on to focusing on the intake pipe. One item at a time so that I can isolate the cause.

Андрей - я недавно выложил видео, в котором все показываю и объясняю. А аквариум можно посмотреть по ссылке на Акватиклог - он у меня 5 футов.

Yep, I do this and it gets the air out, wait another 2 hours - and the same amount of air gets in the filter somehow.

@@TreasureCorals I would assume that your inlet pipes are not 100% air tight.

@@richardportelli1983 Quite possible, although a strange problem that I've never come across before. I am expecting to try the clamps sometime next week and will report on it.

wow, really cool thought

Sailfin, powder blue, tomini, naso tang, I think these are the ones

5 feet. Waterbox 190.5, full aquarium details are in the link in the description
