Hi all fellow marine enthuaists,
this is my first time writing in this forum. So greetings to all of you
My problem starts here............
I started my 2 feet tank that contain close to 18 US gallons last week.
Little do i know that i need to wait for the bacteria to cycle thus i did not wait at all:(
here is a short report of what i have done....
6/1-I bought a tank and external filter. I filled it up with seawater that i bought from a marine fish farm. Allowed the filter to run for a day.
7/1- got some life rocks and stack horns off a friend. Bought some new ones . Ive got about 5 kg of rocks and stackhorns in the tank.
8/1 - bought a tomato head nemo, moray eel and a small anemone.
9/1 - Got a few baby fishes (cheap ones- like damsels etc)
12/1- My fishes keep dying and im left with only the tomatohead, domino damsel eel and a gobifish.
13/1- bought a ammonia test kit and added bacteria growth
My question here is .......will i be too late if i add in the bacteria now?
will i be too late if i do the no2, no3 and ph level check now ?
Pls pardon my ignorance and i thank u all for advices:)
Yours sincerly
Yiling
