thank all of u guys for sincere help where i have received lots of info

my lfs sold me a gig today

my tank is still fairly new about 2 more month but the keeper said he couldnt control the arrival time of goods

think hes just willin to empty his tank and then import so new critters

yet i have to receive it, however, it looks rather greenish grey and pretty healthy

without sending them a notice declaring theres a home set up for them, within an hour, the pair of nemos found the nem and became hosted

very happy beginning and wish to have a very happy end

please finger cross me:lol2:

Good luck and congrats. Since you don't have a choice but to bring it home, my only advice would be to watch your parameters like a hawk and try to keep them as stable as you can. Young, new tanks are all over the place with chemistry and it's going to be a challenge to keep your levels good.

What size tank? Lighting? Salinity?

 

[M Woodhill]

the data of my tank has long been stable---at least seemingly

its around 77 gallon, 2'7*2*2

lighting: metal halide xm bulb 250w 10000k 8hr from 2 pm to 10pm
4 actinic 15w*4 10hrs from 1 pm to 11 pm
moonlight for the test of time

water parameter: salinity=1.025
ph=8
kh=9 (with increaser)
no2=0
no3=0.2
po4=0
ca=380-400
mg=1175-1200

the bigest problem comes from temperature, raning wildly sometime from 78 to 85

the cooler goes awfully

i had a bta around a month ago, it was doing very fine within the first two weeks and all of a sudden, it shrank and a part became rotten and died within 24 hrs
