Thanks guys that really helped
I don't have blue balls either.
Use Marine Snow for 2 days in a hi-flow area and keep the lights off 48 hours. You should see an Xplosion in less than a week :) Phyto doesnt...
I had question about what kind of water to use for a cichlid tank. Everywhere i read people suggest using tap water :o now i'm thinking wtf:confused:...
isn't Alkalinity and carbonate hardness the exact same thing, the ability of a solution to resist a pH change with an addition of an acid?
Marine snow is much better than DT Live Phytoplankton. The sizes are much smaller in marine snow and it doesnt stink like phyto. I see a huge...
I don't know what you mean by "hosed" when you are talking about the live rock. I just simply make a fresh batch of salt water, bring it up to...
Columbian sharks can be done. They live in brakish water but eventually move to salty waters. I would like to do the experiement.

Marine snow and Phytofeast really helped me boost copepod population
doesnt matter what brand. You could use the frozen foods once a week but everyday is a lil much. You just need a robust cleaning crew i think.
I see what the problem is. You need snails LOTS of them :) And also no more frozen food. Try the dried pellets some good brands like Hikari....
Stop feeding frozen shrimp. Try something like Hikari Marine-S. What kind of snails do you have? and how many? Try adding 150 Golden Astrea snails...
