Ok, first the parameters: 14 Gal Biocube
Ammonia 0
Nitrite 0
Nitrate 0
Ca 400
SG 1.024-1.025
Alk 8.6
Phosphate 0
Temp 80.5
Started tank about 6 weeks ago. Filled it with tap, and have been changing out 2 gallons a week with RO ever since. (yes, I've learned that lesson!)
Livestock added 2 weeks ago is:
1 small ocellaris clown
frags of frogspawn, zoos, green star polyps.
Hitchiker xenia and mushrooms (actually they've been there all along)
3 turbo snails and 5 or 6 small scarlet hermits
All the corals are doing great, well expanded, look happy. The poor fish however is losing his tail! It started with a little ragged appearing at the tip 2 days ago and now his whole tail is GONE. I'm shocked and sad for poor Ozzie. What could this be? Is he a lost cause? Should I humanely euthanize him? He does seem somewhat distressed.
HELP!
