Thanks Mindy
I've never done a prophylactic B4 in the QT. I've monitored, Hypo if needed. Meds if needed or course, but never meds 'just cause'.
Things will change in the New Year in this respect.

Have 4 fish left from 14, and 1 has stopped eating ... tank is fallow. Feeding shrimps/hermits/snails.

Monitoring NO3 and PO4. Adding what's needed to keep levels acceptable.
Keeping bacteria alive is my goal.
No water changes, just cleaning skimmer, sock and monitoring.
All salt budget has been allocated to the QT. Might perform a WC on the DT soon, but another problem is not sharing hoses/pumps. Don't want to use the same pump for RO water as draining the Old DT water.
Not going to haul buckets after all the time and money I spent installing hoses. Will see how much gumption I have sometime soon.

Been adding Seachem Nitrogen with good results. 2ml/day to start but now going for 5ml/day.
PO4 has been 0.003 for weeks
NO3 has been 0.00 for weeks

Had a complaint I haven't added any pics lately, so here they are.
Quality sucks ...
