How is the little guy doing today? Is he eating and doing better? Also, did you test the water again today and what are the parameters reading? Please make a video update of him eating and showing signs of good health so I can sleep better at night lol. Peace!

[ryjack26]

@newyorksteelo he is doing great, the parameters are perfect and he eats like a pig, no regrets on buying him, the only thing is that the stripe on his side is visable (a sign of stress), but its probably b/c hes new to the system, i put up a vid like 20 mins ago, check it out!!!

your blue damsel and clown dont fight or pick eachother? Hows your tang doing?

i reccomend you getting him some live seaweed. i perfer ulva. just google it. my tang goes crazy over the stuff. mine was that size when i first got him and now he is about 8" and a fat cow. that dried seaweed will do for now but it dosent have the things the fish needs to stay alive for a long time. mine is almost 6 years old and he has had fresh live seaweed for his whole life. its 15 bucks a pound at reefs2go(dot)com.abd it will live in your sump

My friend, the best advice I can give you or anyone else staring out in this hobby is to have patience, and then some more patience. In this hobby, good things take a long time to happen, but bad things happen in an instant. Keep us updated on your tang. I really do hope he is a fighter, healthy and makes it. Keep us posted!

@ryjack26 I would test it again, and then again to make sure that amonia is zero. There is no arguing the fact that your tank has been up for a month and the cycle is done. If the test kit reads signs of amonia then your tank is NOT cycled yet end of story. No questions asked. Your cycle will be fully done when there is no signs of amonia or nitrite in your system, only nitrates which is tolerable by your animals.
