AIO == Means ALL IN ONE biopellets?
You mean that the cause of low nutrients?
Could you share with us your water parameters?
I notice you are using UV light are you still using it?


AIO will reduce no3 and po4.. putting too much will cause the water nutrient to be too low..

Yes still running uv but did not change the bulb so it's as if not running uv..

My fishes are doing good though.. All old birds liao.. I DIY a tank cover using plastic board to cover up the light in order not to affect my baby boy eyes..

One thing I learn recently.. Tang will surely need seaweed / algae in their diet!

Both my Purple tang and Yellow tang are at least 4 years old.. They have grown to their max size in my 3ft..

However, recently I realise their belly become sunken. I have no addition and hence infection chances quite low.

After discussing with my friends, I fed them with seaweed.. It’s been 3 years since they last ate seaweed!

After 1 week, they have all recovered! Should be suffering from mal-nutrition previously although they feeding on mysis and pallet..

agreed, especially with zebrasoma tangs from what i’ve noticed. my yellow tang and sailfin tang don’t look as fat when they get less algae in their diet, even if they seem to be eating plenty of chopped seafood and pellets

Sneak preview of my prestech tank stand. The ID will wrap up the capentry for me!

Decided not to have wood cupboard base as water always slip into the floor when we water change so trying something new.

Will be doing my own piping. All ready from TaboBao.

Looking forward to your new tank build. :)

Curious, what size will your new system be ?
