Hello everybody,
This is my first time posting to the forums. I have been in the hobby for about 8 months. I recently transferred my fish and corals from a 27 gallon cube to a 60 gallon cube.
I cycled the tank properly over about 5 weeks.
Since i have transferred (about a week ago), my cardinal fish died, and my clown fish is not looking good.
I am a little confused because fish that i would consider harder to keep are thriving, and so are my corals:
My fish that are doing fine are:
matted filefish
starfish
diamond goby
yellow watchman goby
shrimp
I noticed today that the clownfish has cloudy eyes (both eyes) and it looks like a white cobb web looking substance is attached to its gills and is tailing behind him when it swims. Its swimming around fine.
Here are my water parameters:
Nitrites: 0.0
Nitrates .75
ammonia: 0
salinity: 1.025
calcium: 440
phosphate: 0.0
temperature: 78.5
I am fairly new to the hobby, and any suggestions would be appreciated!
Any ideas what could be causing these problems?
Could it be possibly just the stress of the move?
Should I treat in any way?
Thank you guys so much for the help! I love reading this forum!
