I'll come back...when there's pictures :cry:
My vote is no. I had one eating Nutramar Ova. It's and awesome fish, but it started picking at my LPS. It didn't do any outright damage, but it...
Anybody have an idea what would cause this? I've had zoas close up on and off, it's not a big problem, but I would like to figure out what is doing...
Nice system! You look very proud.
You're not alone, there. ;)
I would aim for once a week. That way, if you get busy and forget about it, then your at two weeks, not three.
I keep the back wall of my tank clean, so I would soak it in vinegar, then scrape it off. If you intend on letting corailline covering it, then I...
Looking at the third and fourth picture, I would have to agree. Either one is not good, and should be taken care of ASAP.
Huge amount of flow at the surface. Are the corals close to the MP40 getting too much flow, or the ones further away not getting enough? With that...
I've got 180 gallons of sump in the basement, so I'm good there. Went to the CMAS swap in Chicago yesterday. Lots of good vendors, got to talk to...
Actually cleaned my skimmer today. The whole thing. Looks like new. ;D Also, added a 100 micron filter sock to the drain into the first sump. We'll...
Different opinion on pods here. I hate em. I watch my tank a lot, at night as well . I have never witnessed a coral eating a pod. I have,...
I spot feed all of my LPS and NPS. But, that's what I like to do, it's not work to me. They will grow faster with feeding, no doubt about it....
...and speaking of wrasses, I would add a Halichores of some type. Great for activity and pest removal.
Hey, I'm not far from Mequon. We did all of the granite work at the Sendik's there.
The base of the first one looks irritated/slimy. The second has tiny air bubbles on it. No sign of red bugs. Have you had them out of the water...
My first thought was light, flow, or pest.
That's the same reason I have a very shallow sand bed in the reef tank, just enough for the wrasses to sleep in. I made it a little deeper towards...
Side shots are great, especially since you don't always view your tank that way. Awesome growth, there!
I agree with Steve. Keep the calcium around 450. Personally, since my bropsis episode, I keep the Mag around 1600. Yesterday, my alk was 9 and Ca was...
