Well my tank seems to be going on a down way spiral. Not sure what is going on really.
Everything had been going fine. The Xenia had been extending really fast. I decided to frag one ofthe heads. So I did and attached the frag to a piece of rubble and placed it on the sand. I left it as is and everything still seemed fine. This was all done on Friday morning. On Saturday morning the Xenia that was fragged, the frag, AND the other Xenia I have in the tank were very shrunken. My zoos never opened. I immediately tested all the parameters. Ammonia, nitrite, phosphate, all 0. Nitrate around 10 ppm.
Temperature had dropped to about 76. Normally it's at 79 or 80. I noticed my heater was broken. Had a crack on the glass not sure how that happened. I bought the smallest heater I could find. But it's permanently set at 78. It's not really cutting it. I'm going to get one with a dial today and see how it goes.
I did do a 10 percent water change yesterday to see if it helped and nothing. I'll be doing another today just in case.
A bit frustrated right now!!
