Looks awesome Trip Love the glow. I recently got rid of a purple psuedo - it was picking on my blenny like crazy. You might remember my fish...
Elements are things on the periodic table. Things like Calcium, Iodine, Strontium, etc. Phosphate and nitrates are not elements in this sense but...
I would think of you can smell the air freshener from the room your tank is in, then air freshener chemical is getting in the tank. Regardless of...
i have an idea for it too. I'd like to have one of these eco pico - that's pretty cool.
a fish will dramatically increase your water maintenance needs... in a tank that size, i'd think even a tiny fish would have a big impact. You got...
Honestly, I don't think it's right people trying to help you band-aid this situation. You know it yourself. You have way more fish than a 28 gallon...
agreed on above
Your Mg is too low and that's why you are seeing Ca drops. Raise your Mg to somewhere at 1350-1500 and keep it stable. THEN worry about your Ca...
my thought too. I often take the wings off crane flies (commonly called (incorrectly) mosquito eaters or squeeter eaters - they don't eat mosquitos...
I have one of these. It's super rad. SUPER rad. You have to be careful with it - I had to train my 3 yr old not to pull it off as it can SLAM back...
Great post Crimson. On this comment above, that's part of my point. We have no idea how fast these elements are fully utilized. From my experience...

Also, I lose about 10 points a day but I have quite a bit more stony coral than you listed... Tank size isn't relevant. Coral load is.
IMO, for the corals listed, that is an oddly high Ca absorption rate. What is your Mg reading? Wondering if it's not high enough to keep your Ca...
No. Mostly due to it not being a good idea to dose things you don't test for and I don't want to test all those different trace elements that are...
update on this story, reading on cnn (most accurate news source on the planet!! ::)) that it looks like some neurotoxin played a role. domoic acid...
I didn't see this, sorry :) I believe it is an either/or statement. Both qualify.
I also believe John put together these quick crews with shipping in mind. I *think* nothing in that crew requires over night and so qualify for 2-3...
these "quick crews" assume you have NO clean up crew currently. since you do, you need a custom crew, not a quick crew. as a matter of reference,...
thinking this type of fish needs particular kinds of sponge in its diets and I also believe that the kind of sponge it needs doesn't generally grow...
