do you guys think i should do a water change? none of my levels have moved in the past week and this morning i saw two big bleach spots

It could be lighting and not your water. Also you could have monti eating nudis which are small white frilly nudis that will be on the montis.

hmm i checked my levels

calc 500 (high ...)
nitrate 20
ph 8.4
kh 10
mag is unknow rite now couldn't find my kit

but there is more bleach spots!!!!!! it kinda looks like its melting, but at the same time it starts fading and then turns white

Could you have possibly knocked some salt creep onto it? I did exactly that a couple months back. It bleached in patches, but it recovered quickly.

i havnt done anything to the tank besides add part a n b, but it is getting more white spots

well, your nitrates are high, your kh is OK but you can try lowering it, and your calc is high. mag seems to effect montis in my experience so I would find your kit.

Yes I would do a water change to reduce your nitrates and calc at least.

ya my nitrate rec stoped running after a gfi trip i need to fix it

ok my mag is at 1250 so that hasn't moved...i know i need to raise it but every time i do i lose something.

maybe i should use a mag media or something

it died

If it took two days to die, that wasn't STN. My bet is on RTN.
