Morning everyone,

Need some help with an issue in my tank. My yellow tang and mystery wrasse seem to ocassionally scratch against the live rock. Not constantly but enough for me to notice. I had Ich in the past but was able to treat in QT with copper, leaving the DT empty for 6 weeks. That was almost 6 months ago. I have not noticed any Ich spots on any of the fish but just notice the occassional itching. Another wierd observation is with the mystery wrasse, it no longer hangs out in and about the rockwork, but swims up and down the rear facing glass. Could anything else be the cause of this itching or scratching.

I tested my water this morning and the results are as follows: Temp 80.6, salinity 1.023 (refractometer), ammonia 0 (API), nitrite 0 (API), Ph 8.1 (salifert), phosphate 0 (Salifert), nitrate 25 (Salifert), and dKh 6.7 (salifert).

Thanks in advance,
