Hello,

tank size is 55x55x47cm 30G.

The Fungia is smitten with the bacteria. And the Euphyllia was smitten with the bacteria.

The tank is runnig since 1.2007

The light is the Ocean ligt 150 with a Methlux 20.000K blub.

In the tank is Livesand and Live Rock.

I make always a water change the week.

My Nitrat can't size. I beliefe the test is defect.

Just so you know, smitten usually means in love, not covered in. What is teh "jellies" texture

 

[Tobias_93]

Sorry my English is terrible .

 

[DivaMan]

Its not terrible, i have seen worse. But is the brown slime literally slimey to the touch, or does it just look like a brown coloring?

 

[Tobias_93]

Hey,

it's brown slime. It's slimey.

I saw the bacteria under a mikroscop.

I think the bacteria is gone, because there are no slime and bacteria in the tank.

I've make a big waterchange. Perhaps it has killed the bacteria.

It might help to make sure you have plenty of water flow sirculating through your tank. I think plenty of flow inhibits the growth of many unwanted pathogens.

Hey,

tomorrow Wasch the Corals in a Antibiotic.

And I add a Pinch of Kaliumpermanganat in the Tank.
