Thanks for the advice everyone, really appreciate it. We got all the test kits in the end and tested for everything - all was fine apart from those pesky Nitrite levels still. The last two days have been a disaster, everything's died and we're totally gutted. We're going to take a deep breath, start ...

We only have the Tetra test for NO2 - Nitrite kit and PH paper, the LFS said that's all we'd need, and to be fair our PH is spot on. We've checked the water we've been using for changes and that's fine too. We're planning a big water change for tomorrow, then we'll pop into the LFS on Wednesday to ...

We've got the standard filter set that came with the Trigon 190 - 600 l/h and also a Fluval 304. Currently looking to get a skimmer, been told it's a must-have, but I was wondering if there's anything else you'd recommend we get?

Our tank's only a ...

Hi,

Name of the coral is "no name" ? Never seen it, who sells it?

Hi all, I'm reaching out for some guidance as I'm having some issues with my tank.
I've had it running for about 3 years now, and it's been SPS-dominated.
The past 4 or 5 months, I've been experiencing STN (Slow Tissue Necrosis) that comes and goes.
It all started around 5 months ago when I had ...

Your coral seems more vibrant than hers, hers looks kinda pale. What's your nitrate level? Both tanks look good though. Post the parameters for both tanks, curious to see the difference.
