Who is Rico?
I know the feeling. I have lost thousands of dollars worth of chalices over the past four months. Started when I was really ill and ended up having to go to hospital for a week.
I have tried and tried and tried some more to stop the loss but nothing has worked. Not sure what got them.

Was a up and coming YouTuber. Would do 12 hr live streams. Been in the game for 25+ years.

Dang it man. I had a Minor set back this year with a Triton Core7 Trace Element overdose. Not sure if it was a bad batch or just the new formula. Either way, it was enough for me to walk away from Triton probably forever.
Tank was doing well before I started it and is doing super good now that I pulled it.

most of the time I find Im having problems its low alk or alk fluctuation.
mine is slow over maybe a month. just starts losing tissue. i have tried moving them to different systems, massive water changes. just gave up.
I will never ever jeopardize my tank with Fritz products especially with their salt...I watched more of his video. Regardless very sad.
I didn't watch the video. I'm living the dream.

That will get ya too. Although I have seen Jake Adams run as low as 4-5 dKH!

When I had issues in the past it was all due to low nutrients or nutrition.
Another thing that everybody should check is your PAR!

Almost wondering if it was the Fritz salt. We both changed to Fritz at the same time due to how quickly and clean it mixes up. I find it funny that when I had issues I was running Fritz too. I pulled the Fritz and Triton Core7 at the same time because those were the only two things I changed on the system. Then the tank recovered.
I’m near positive my issue was a Trace Element overdose, but I do find it funny that Rico is running Fritz and now this is happening. Coincidence?!? Maybe or maybe not...

Didn’t see one colony size enough to back this info

His current tank is pretty new almost a year or so I think. He had a 300dd about 2 yrs ago that was had been running for quite a bit. I’ve been on a few of his streams he’s definitely been in it longer then me. You can prob look back and find some old videos, you can also see on tidal gardens channel, than has a video on his old tank.
You are seeing the new tank-see his previous 300/g
Got it was just surprised to not see any dead monsters

Yup. If that happened to his old tank if I was him I would have threw the towel in and be done with it. He has some nice sized stuff in there
