If you don't have a separate chamber for a fuge I would not put sand down there, it will just be another thing to maintain or it will become a...
Also just some more info on sumps, worth a read through I think. Melevsreef.com - What is a Sump?
I think running the reverse lighting schedule with fans might be the best solution, maybe even for the whole summer so you don't have to worry about...
I would cross them off your list of trusted sources of info then to be honest. ;D
A lot of people incorporate a refugium in a section of the sump so that's probably what you're used to seeing. A canister filter is generally just...
If you have excess nutrients in the tank the lights will kick in an algae bloom most likely. I don't think any acclimation to light will help though,...
Paranoia is the way! 8)
Looks like sand to me. Something like the Fiji Pink here, very common substrate and requires less maintenance than crushed coral. Substrate for...
I'm thinking that one large pump will be more heat/cost/energy efficient, as long as you get a good efficient pump. However, that also puts you at...
I dip every coral that comes into my tank in seachem reef dip and revive. I would at least do revive, it will help get rid of any flatworms or any...
Yeah carbon should not tumble, phosphate remover, at least the GFO I use is supposed to tumble a little bit. Try dialing your feed pump back....
If you can get a good picture that might help with a better ID. Also careful moving to more light, if you move it to high light too fast you could...
What are your parameters? Are there any other corals close by that could be stinging it? Also it looks to be an alveopora species I think, so it...
The only time I've ever heard of an "albino" coral it was an april fools' joke, be careful it's not just bleached and in rough shape. :)
I believe it's actually spelled "Lemnalia". Just a quick google for some basics since I don't have any personal experience with it. Is this what it...
Yea still looks pretty rough but it can definitely pull through. If it stopped receding that's definitely a good sign. It could take months to...
Maroons are one of the more aggressive clowns but I haven't heard of them killing an anemone before, maybe the anemone wasn't very healthy or...
This guy has a massive leather in his tank and keeps plenty of acros, and has for years. I believe running a good amount of carbon should take care...
I'm not sure if it's different for nanos, but generally I would put 5x through the filter and use powerheads to add the real flow. 30x your tank size...
A Poly Filter will remove it as well, the nice thing is that it will change color depending on what it's removing so you know what it's pulling out....
