Yeah....walk my fish....hmmmm......no, I don't think I will.
sorry to hear that. The other head looks like it is okay
Hi! RO sits most of the day, hoping to get some air flow near it. I do run an opposite photocycle on fuge in sump, I agree, those tests are useless,...
Yeah, I'll check out your pics. Mine had a bit of stringy stuff coming out of it this a.m., now home at 5:20 p.m., lights are out but it had come...
Just to open this back up, how is it today? One of the three heads on my hammer is closed this morning, looks like your pic up above!! I don't know...
Thanks, lotzo, I have read in many places that opening a window near tank helps. I do not dose buffer, don't know that I trust that method. I live in...
Thanks!
Nice acros! I have Joe the Coral, I don't know who came up with that name but I bet someone named Joe!! It's an awesome blue, I have it up near the...
I am using API high range pH test kit, I have a hard time telling if it's 8.0 or 8.3 usually. Alkalinity is consistently 8 or 9 dkh, calcium 440-460....
Sorry, yeah salinity. That's a good level. I have my hammer on sand in a 75g, it likes it there, a bit lower flow. I've read that if the arms are...
I changed out a good amount of water and added Amquel for ponds when mine got that high. I actually don't know what happened to mine but it came...
My hammer looked exactly like that when I first put it in tank. I know mine was adjusting to the new surroundings, it's great now. Maybe yours just...
You inspire me!! I need to create a cover, too, and I'm using egg crate. Mine is just a rectangle so it should be a bit easier! K+ to you!
hitch hiker on a piece of rock, consider it a cool bonus if you get a free coral!
how much LR, how much sand, how long has tank been up and running? If you move LR around carefully and slowly, and the SB is disturbed a little bit,...
If you want to run the lights at the same time, that's fine. If you run the fuge light at night, it can help keep your pH up over night because pH...
Yes, the same bulb in your clamp on fixture. I have my fuge light on from 6:30 at night until 8:30 in the morning. I have it on while my tank lights...
Chaeto is a macro algae, it looks like green fishing line all twisted into a big ball. You can ask your local fish store if they have any, or look...
Yes, coralline is good. If you're still cycling, the brown and green algae will start to go away. It just takes some time. Don't worry, your tank is...
To answer more of your questions, if you get some chaeto, it's pretty cheap and you won't need sand. That will help keep your tank nice. If we can...
