I'll start picking them out manually again. Here is a video, hopefully it will address some of your questions... [MEDIA]
Yes they are physically on corals
Asterina stars - I have a lot of them, I try to pick them out one by one, but they still come back. I'll install a power head and see if it...
When i get home from work i'll make a short video of the entire tank and will explain what equipment i have and how often i maintain it. I think it...
Instead of power heads tanks cycles the water with a return pump in the back in the sump area and has two nozzles that I would say are creating a...
I noticed that it tends to go for harder parts of corals, such as coral bases.
You are correct, just ran ammonia test, and it clearly shows zero. Regarding algae, take a look at attached picture of a monti cap, you could see...
No never. I was under impression I should not disturb the sand bed is it collects poisonous gases.
I suppose it is possible, I just never had it this color before. Also coralline algae is stony, you could scrape it with a razor and it would come...
I already purchased red sea ammonia test kit and should get it tomorrow. I'll definitely take some of my water to petco tomorrow to get it checked....
Any thoughts?
Ammonia is down to either 0 or .25, extremely hard to tell a difference from an API test, i will probably get Red Sea Ammonia test. All other...
I'll double check all parameters later tonight. But if you all agree the problem was bad water quality, this should eventually fix it.
Yep, at one point it was double THAT size. I actually thought it would overgrow my tank. Now it barely opens up.
My fish are not dying, didn't have a single death yet (thank god). It is the overall condition of corals that is declining. I no longer have any...
Not that I am chasing numbers but I am very conscious of them, and i thought that atmospheric conditions would lower pH, not raise it... but like you...
Ok so I've received my RO/DI a few days ago. TDS shows 0ppm, pH however shows 9.7... I've read other forums that say dioinized water isn't easily...
I am a little confused, your 7 stage filter filters water prior to it being mixed with salt. Salt mix should have a balanced Ca, KH and Mg... No? Or...
Thank you all for patience, I've got the TDS meter and it showed that my filtered water was at 42... Given that is not an appropriate level I just...
Like i said, API test and Milwaukee SMS122 pH meter.
