Marine FIsh Problem
Disney Trivia Ron
tank, I have it set up as a marine/fish tank with approx 75lbs of live rock,
sand substrate, wet/dry filter with submersable protein skimmer, 3 power heads
in tank for water circulation. Tank was established approx 2 years ago and
inside I have several corals, blue leg hermits, turbo snails, 2 sand sifting
stars, 1 cleaner shrimp, 1 coral banded shrimp. 1 velvet damsel and 1 neon blue
damsel.
The Problem is.....Lately it seems that every time I put new fish in the tank
they dies not too long after. Last week I placed 2 percula clowns in the tank
(Which died within 5 days) Now, last night I put a new fish in (Kona Tang) and
tyhis mornign he has ich. I took all necessary precautions to acclimate him
including usugn a stress coat treatment in the tank. The salinity is perfect,
all other water tests came out fine (PH good) zero ammonia, zero nitrates)
And, my current fish are alive an well and have been for the past year (At
least) It just seems new fish dont make it.
I know I should probably have a hospital tank to treat the fish as soon as I
bring them home but I just dont have the means to set one up right now so I
would appreciate any ideas or suggestions on what is going on .
