Something seriously wrong, suggestive of bacterial infections, running a UV? Wondering also about tang aggression… fins looking really chewed up on your fish. Purple tang going postal?
@shallowreefing
@shallowreefing 2 күн бұрын
I’m not running UV currently but it is definitely a thought. I’ve been watching the fish and I don’t see any aggression. But that doesn’t mean that they don’t get aggressive around night time

It might be a bacterial infection or a random parasite. I’ll never know. I did an aquabiomics EDNA test and it didn’t look like anything bad was in the tank. It’s hard to lose your fish. I’m sorry about your trigger.

Nice, thanks. FYI. It’s pronounced KEE-to, like the diet. KEE-to-MOR-pha. In taxonomy (and probably everywhere else too) “ae” is an “ee” sound. Same in “algae”: AL-gee.

My experience: Have 2 small Hygger wave makers; 4years old and 3 years old. The basic Controller options are where they fall short compared to the higher end stuff that I lm using. They have more than adequate control options, nonetheless. Another issue is they don’t offer very many larger tank device options. Hopefully, they will one day. Regardless, mine were worth every absolute penny I spent on them. If one of my Hygger flow mules breaks down I won’t think twice to replace it with a newer Hygger model. After watching this, without hesitation it will be a part of my newest 60g build. Should be perfect for my needs. Thank you for the great content!

Struggling with exactly the same right now, our dory is just like yours, same size, we’ve known her for 10 years. Shes currently laying on the sand and floating upside down after acting just like yours in your videos, feel so sad, they do become pets. The situation is exactly the same down to the floating, rubbing, getting stuck on heads, brown markings around face, redness under mouth and on tail, stomach sucked in etc. feel so hopeless.

Have a 180 for a 2-3 years with curve 7, got the Elite INT 200, managed to shove into the sump Trigger Triton 44 V2, ordered a custom 270 gallon yesterday 96x27x24 I think about as big a tank I can fit to replace the 180. Running ozone so to me having the ozone intake on the Elite was the deciding factor.

I do wonder about long term reliability and power use-35 watts is quite high. How does that compare to your varios pump at the same flow rate? How’s the noise and vibration?
@shallowreefing
@shallowreefing 24 күн бұрын
Varios goes up to 98 watts. It was drawing roughly 42 watts at step 3. I have silicone tubing on the pumps so it is definitely quiet for both pumps. Obviously the $450 pump is better. But this budget option is great. The prices in the hobby have gotten out of control and I appreciate companies trying to deliver entry level products to help newer reefers.

Just popped one in my 75 gallon. I actually wasn't going to buy it on the blue colour alone. But I went on Amazon and they had grey/black. I bought a Fluval 8 months ago. Died. Total junk. So I dug around and thought I'd give it a try. I've been doing freshwater aquariums for over 30+ years. I know what I like and want. Seems like a solid purchase It has so many settings and that can be intimidating. We'll see how it goes.
