What happens if you don't dose trace elements and don't do water changes

Than most corals, if not all start dying.

You need to do something.

Glenn,

If you are not performing water changes, how are you replacing trace elements?

Very nice tank.

Thanks,

Dean

By correction of depleted elements and outdosings.

It took a while, but somehow finally someone picked up on the opportunity to do something with it. This happens to be deltec usa.
I hope they are as succefull out there as the LFS in here, which account for at least 60% of the dutch reefers. After all the system originated in here.

Few butterflies are easy to keep in a small tank with many corals and good feeding.
The will eat anything starting with mysis.

Some specialist need to be kept with peacefull fish because they can easily het stressed an a itch outbreak often fatal.

Keeping a quarantine tank with copper threatment is always usefull.

Hi Glenn , am mostly interested in C.trifasciatus and C.melapterus - members of Corallochaetadon family . I have a new C.melapterus that's only and only interested in live Sps .
I saw many of your old 2-3 year old videos where you got them to eat mysis .

How long did it take for them to move to mussels and mysis from live corals ? How did you help them make the switch ?

Mine is only 5 days now with me and East nothing other than Sps . Of course I provide with Sps but wondering should I stop and give them only prepared foods ?

I dose everything essential to maintain healthy corals.
For this i developed my own dosing and testing shedule.

You can find more publications about it if you google for "glennfdsr".

Those are indeed very difficult to keep.
I kept 2 of them for 4 months. They pecked on corals and 1 ate mysis shortly after introduction.
The other never did. Later i tried muscles and oysters but shortly after that they both died.

I believe i may have overdone it with the muscles, because after i gave then one everyday their poop suddenly changed to diarrhoea, they stopped eating anything and died within 2 day after eachother.

Hi Glenn ,

Now that Deltec USA has started carrying DSR products , thought I can change over from ESV to DSR . I k ow this is not an easy answer but if am currently dosing 50mls of ESV a day to maintain Alk at 7.5 , how easy is the transformation to DSR and how do you suggest the switch over ?

Regards,
Abhishek

If you know the dkh consumption/d you can use the EZcalculator to calculate the new dosing
