Aquarium Advice Regular
Last wednesday added an anemone, a clown and a boxfish. (Quarantine is unheard of here in Switzerland).
Thursday anemone hiding under a rock; let it acclimatise I say to myself.
Saturday afternoon, anemone still under rock, fish a bit skitty, Pomacanthus is scratching on shells and spending lots of time asking the cleaner shrimp for help.
I fish out the anemone, in full decomposition, the smell made even my glass eye water 8O
Tests reveal all 0 except nitrite at 0.3 and PO4 0.25.
Ph 8.2, 27°, SG 1.023
Sunday tank has lost the ghastly smell but the boxfish looks like this:
It doesn't seem to bother him, he swims around happily and eats very well. The butterfly has a tiny tinge of the same whiteness, everyone else is fine.
My tank is 480L, 2 months old, 25Kg of live rock, coral sand, wet-dry sump, a dozen small juvenile fish and 6 inverts.
What are those white spots?
Any suggestions would be most welcome
