Tank has been running since May of 2016. Before that the tank had been running from August of 2008 to about March of 2016. 400g 120" long x 32" wide x 24" tall mixed reef.
Fish list
Dussumieri Tang (10"+)
Blue Tang (5")
Purple Tang (4"+)
Clown Tang (4"+)
Tomini Tang (3")
Blue Jaw Trigger (3")
(2) Occellaris Clowns
Flameback Angel
Lunar Wrasse (5")
Sunset Wrasse (5")
Yellowtail Coris Wrasse (5")
Cleaner Wrasse
Orange Spot Goby
Midas Blenny
All fish went through (8) week QT process except for Dussumieri tang because it came out of someone else's tank and it was too large for my QT setup. QT treatment included 1 hour paraguard dip before and after QT plus prazipro and cupramine treatments. I'm guessing not QT'ing the Dussumieri or my next move was my mistake. I also have a frag tank with a lawnmower blenny that was not QT'd. When i take corals from the frag tank to the DT i dip them in Revive and rinse in DT water. No fish has been added to the DT in the past 8 months. Lawnmower blenny was added to the frag tank about 6 months ago. Seems possible that I've transferred some disease between the 2 tanks or the Dussumieri had it from the start but I've had most of the fish for over a year with no signs of disease.
Had a file fish for about a year but lost it about 3 months ago. It stopped eating and died. About 1 month ago the Dussumieri tang stopped eating and was less active. After 2 weeks of not eating i caught the fish and did a freshwater dip for 5 minutes and a paraguard dip for 1 hour. Went into a 40 gallon breeder (frag tank) and started eating again after a week. Reintroduced back into the DT on Saturday and acting normal. All other fish acting normal other than i believe they are breathing a little harder than normal. All fish are very colorful and fat. The Lunar and Sunset wrasses will itch on rock on occasion. sorry for the long post but wanted to give some background info. Any thoughts and/or advice would be appreciated. Here is a link to some pictures from back in September. Not much has changed.
