I definitely do not think stopping the GFO is the way to go. I never had an issue with it regarding alk and pH swings, but I have seen numerous post...
Then I would bump the thread you started previously. I myself will look at a thread and if the ? has been answered sufficiently by a previous poster...
Hey Sacul1573, thanks. The suggestions on the photography were. 1. Reduce ISO setting, mine is at 80. 2. Turn off auto macro setting. 3. Reduce...
The leaf fish really needs to be in a species tank designed around it's particular needs. Spiny lobster may not last too long if housed in a tank...
IMO anything between 1.023-1.026 is fine, consistency is more important. I also agree leave the pumps on and change the direction or placement of...
Whether majano or aiptasia, I strongly recommend you treat the pest aggressively before the population increases. I have been dealing with a pest...
Hey Silor, That is a huge bummer. So this is only affecting montipora? Just a wild guess but you have alk of 11 and running GFO, I too suspect...
They are really common hitch-hikers.
The Tunze goes in the center chamber, which presents a problem by displacing the media basket. I know not about the Eshop skimmer, but the Tunze is...
They look like the legs of a small/micro brittle star.
For the skimmer I recommend the Tunze 9002, you can get the Intank collection cup so the cup does not hit the lid when you open the tank. I run...
If you have any dips like CoralRx or equiv I would dip them. It usually does not help if they were freshly fragged but it may help if they succumbed...
Just leave it be, is what I would do.
It is expelling waste?
Very nice scape I like it.
Ok I got confused over what broke when drilled. If that is the case I would just change a 1/2 gallon at a time for the next couple days. Remember...
Yes, IO is fine. I believe the measurement is 1/2 cup per gallon of water to reach a SG of 1.023 but double check the instructions.
55 gallon, a 10-20 % at 1.023. Inverts handle lowering of SG much better, you have to go slow raising back up. I recommend the use of a refractometer...
I would mix up some IO, let it sit for 24 and do a water change, and bring up the SG to at least 1.023 over 3 or 4 days. The anemones maybe a little...
Why are you running the SG at low?
