Aquarium Advice FINatic
Well I have made a few posts here and got some good advice and now I need more advice. My tank has been up for 6 weeks now and I had 2 ocellaris clowns but now I have one. I also have a coral beauty angelfish,a fire goby,a cleaner shrimp and a few hermit crabs. My tank is 50 gals. I have about 20 pounds of live rock,some honeycomb rock,some lace rock,1 piece of lava rock and one piece of slate rock. I have an emperor bio-wheel filter with phosphate sponge,filter floss and a little activated carbon. I also have one powerhead(can't remember what kind but it is rated for up to 70 gals). I have been up on checking all my parameters and my salinity is 1.024 ammonia,nitrite,nitrate are all at 0. My ph is 8.2. The reason why I am a little nervous is as I said earlier is that one of my clowns just died right out of the blue. Last night he was fine. I spend a lot of time watching them and I didn't notice anything different at all. Do I have proper filtration,water movement? Is the rock that I have in there o.k? I don't want to lose any more fish. I know it's only one fish but is a sign for bad things to come? Any expert advice would be awesome.
