I agree with Steve and think there is no harm in trying it. Chaeto has more benefits than just the nutrient export as it will also give a nice home...
The only other thing I can think of would be an excessive amount of manufacturing oils and what not stuck in it. You can try running the skimmer in a...
Being that the tang is an herbavore algae should make up most of its diet ;)
Don't change too much of the water at once. I would only do 30% or so every 24 hours. I know some will disagree with that but you can end up shocking...
Just a side note if you decide to start getting your water from a store its important to bring your own TDS meter and test the water before...

Yep need to know what kind of urchin. Some are not reef friendly. Some species will either straight eat soft coals or some will steal them to try to...
Never had a rimless but they climb out of rimmed tanks just the same. I have found some pretty dry ones that ended up being fine. my guess on time...
Are they the more matted type or individual stems where they attach?
If it is between the jbj or biocube go with the jbj no question. It's light years beyond the biocube. I have been thinking of getting one myself for...
For me at least the coralline seems to grow faster on the pvc than anything else.
I had a blenny jump out and make it under two closed doors into a seperate room. Found him, tossed him back in, and he was fine until it did it...
