I removed about five pounds of sand from my tank today. My diamond gobi( I have a price on his head) who I cannot capture continues to drive me nuts. I rearranged some rock work after removing sand and took away his favorite place to make havoc. Sure enough he found another place to kick up sand and bury coral that sit on sand bed. Any advice how to catch a diamond gobi?
I knew I would kick up a mini cycle by removing sand.
Here are my parameters
Ph- 8.2
Ammonia = 0
Nitrite= 0.2
Nitrate = 2.5
Phos = 0
Is the nitrite anything to worry about? I know this is really early in the game. Wondering if I should be checking ammonia, nitrite, and nitrate daily?
I added half a bottle of Doctor Tims I had laying around.
Has anyone else gone through this before?
Did It lead to any losses of fish?
