Nope, they wouldn't have eaten the bones.
Well, I was just mentioning it because of the grouper. Those guys get huge, like over a foot and a half.
Feather dusters don't care about the light. It may affect the snail not having it on.
Yikes! lol
Well, one reason people keep coral tanks higher is because corals grow much faster @ 81 degrees than at 76, and most natural reefs are normally ~80...
I would make sure that the shrimp sits in the water it's being unfrozen in for at least a half an hour, so the stench of the shrimp gets in the...
I don't know how rough ecocomplete is, but I know cory cats are sensitive to rough substrate because they're on the bottom all the time. If you put a...
+1 on a macro algae.
I think it's because the media can pull out some other trace elements, so you don't want to do that lol.
The Oatley stuff (plumbing department) works as well, just don't use it on corals with very thin skeletons as it gets hotter than some of the others.
this species does not live in sterile, nutrient-deprived settings... but in the wild in muddy, mucky areas semi-buried in the substrate......
Nope, just keep an eye on the ammonia. If it goes over something like 0.5, then I would change it, but not before then.
I'd mention that this is very likely to be attributed to the individual coral you own, rather than elegance corals as a whole.
Favias are ultra agressive. I don't think they use allelopathy, but I wouldn't doubt it's bothering the clam.
So, your tank died off in December, and you didn't have a source of ammonia in it until you added all this stuff in the last couple weeks?...
Good point. It could be an allelopathy issue.
Awesome trade. Congrats!
I'm fairly sure the SG will rise. That's only if the lid isn't airtight.
Wait until your ammonia AND nitrites are 0 before you add anything else. I'm guessing you had the tank set up for too short of a time before you...
There's your problem. Elegance corals come from very, very dirty water, and actually require a higher nitrate level than most other commonly kept...
