265 Gallon Salt

No I hadnt, but lets try to keep this constructive.

Moral of the story, you need a course of action. Keep (or start) giving us accurate h2o quality information.

Possibly consider taking some fish back.

Ask us some questions so we can give you some answers instead of just abuse about stuff that has already happened.

I thought that observance was constructive. Something he needs to keep his eye on, in case it gets worse.

I agree, and good eye.

I had to watch it a couple of times to see what you were talking about. Chances are, if you hadnt pointed it out, I wouldnt have ever caught it.

You only see the fish for a few seconds at the beginning. What species is that?

Here is the water test video I did a few minutes ago.

Tell me what you think.

Look almost too perfect to me considering your setup. There is nothing in your setup filtration or the amount of rock that would eliminate nitrates. So unless you are doing daily 25 percent water changes and/or not feeding(that might not even do it), there should be some nitrates(or ammonia or nitrite) in the water. You may need to get a new test kit if this kit was from your freshwater setup and is contaminated or old.


How long has it been setup now?

Did you shake the nitrate tests the appropriate amounts of time recommended?

Look almost too perfect to me considering your setup. I know I wouldn't be able to maintain that water quality will all those fish.


How long has it been setup now?

I'm thinking this past Sunday would be 4 weeks now, or maybe just a tad longer. My original dates may be off some but not a whole lot, seems like its been a long time since I get a few few each week instead.

I havent used the prime for over a week because I want the tank to do its thing but have it in case something goes wrong. I havent added more fish since the first video.

I did notice that something is tagging my batfish but not sure what yet, I'm thinking the angel but not 100% sure yet.

Did you shake the nitrate tests the appropriate amounts of time recommended?

Yes I did, this is always the longest test, shake for 30 seconds and then 1 minute and wait 5.

Something is wrong then, because there has to be nitrate in that tank. How old is the kit?
