Aquarium Advice Apprentice
So I have had a FOLR tank but recently ventured in prepping my tank for coral.
I upped my salinity to 1.025, got a 4 bulb T-5 lighting fixture and a power head. My nitrites were high to so I did a complete gravel vac, cleaned my fluval 205 ( I realize this could be the reason for my high nitrites) and tested the water. There was a significant decrease in the nitrites so I went and bought a $10 piece of joker Paly and a $10 piece of Ricordea florida. It has been 5 days and the ricordea has been shriviling up. Any ideas? The joker Paly seems to be ok but there are alot of closed polys. Any advice Here is a few before and after pics.
First day in tank:
after 5 days:
it is a 29 gallon. Thanks all.
