Well thats not entirely true, certain anaerobic bacteria are responsible for turning nitrate directly into nitrogen gas, not into nitrite. If...
I'm not entirely sure if I understand and agree with the anti-bio ball rhetoric on these forums. It seems the complaint is they are TOO good at...
GSP will tolerate intense lighting very well, unless you didnt acclimate it properly... i had mine about 6" below MH and it loved it... i would...
bleaching gsp? what kind of light ar u running, if gsp is bleaching time to upgrade. i like ur tank tho, i have koralia it is good
u can swap out one of the actinics (blu) for a 10k (white) that will give you stronger light but less coral glow
if anything do two things, have a dedicated section for your protein skimmer, and overengineer your bubble trapping baffles, microbubbles are so...
+1000 a nice big quality skimmer will do more for your quality than all the refugium mud, caulerpa, chaeto, live rock, and deep sand bed in the...
right but theyll color up when placed under display lighting after a few weeks/days

zoas gsp or maybe some xenias will do fine, try to place them towards the top of the tank... zoas and gsp are point and shoot corals... they will...
i mean i'm all for being patient and not rushing but c'mon... put some fish in there already! it's just a lil biocube! no need to stress, it's not...
OKAY. So i've got a 20g T... Right now it's under 96w T5's but I plan on upgrading to a nice MH fixture or pendant. My question is, I want to use...
