i do my reg biweekly 20% water change, perm look good...
amm 0
nitrate0
nitrite 0
sal 1.025
calcium 420
KH 12
im alittle confused on how this could have happen, i never mess with my tank unless for reg care (feeding water changes etc).. the only thing i can think of it stress from the other fish. my current live stock is 1 clown trigg, 1 humu trigg, 12 niger trigg, 1 yellow tang, all have been together for over 1 1/2 yrs.. i recently bought a new tank and i took out alot of LR to help cycle my new tank, so there is not too much LR in my current tank.. could it possibly be from no hiding spaces and he is staying stressed?? he eats like a pig and when its feeding time, he doesnt let anyone eat, he just takes it from the others..swims all day but at night he doesnt sleep he just wonders the tank...
here is a pic of how my tank look as of today..
