How big? During the day or just night?
You don't really give enough info. I probably wouldn't pay more than 5-10% more for CREE leds, but there are a heck of a lot of factors that could...
It's interesting that he thinks oscillatoria is the common cause. This appears to be the textbook example of marine aerobic nitrifying...
Eheim is very good. I have had one on my tank for two years (always use it to feed in day while not home) and it has never skipped a beat. As for...
+1 and Automatic fish feeders are good. I don't know about the lights probably wouldn't but to leave them on, but if you want to kill algae, 10...
Do you have a comparison of PAR? I've been looking and have not found one. Despite of lots of claims on the internet that x led is z% better than y...
fine to add a second OC, but no way would I ever try to add a second Maroon. If not added together as juveniles, the odds of one not killing the...
CREE compared to what? There are other things that are important other than the diodes. If everything else is truly equal and you are comparing...
I have a DA RKL. The pros are it's cheap, the cons are it's cheap. Died twice in roughly a year. The second time killing thousands of dollars in...
The type of algae is somewhat academic and I don't want to lose track of that. Being a "dino like" algae, the best solution is probably going to be...
You know if you really want to make your brain hurt, read the literature. For example, Crossland and Barnes (1977) "Gas-Exchange Studies with the...
Or too much. There has been research on polyp extension and it is not considered a reliable indicator of coral health. There are circumstances...
Remember, there are thousands of species of dinos. And Dinos can live along in mats with algae, cyano, bacteria, fungus etc... changing the...
I think I am missing something here. I don't see any diatoms in the pictures. So, why do you think silicates? Maybe, but I'm told by an expert...
I've don't think I have seen a suggestion that cyano is directly related to pH before. Is that based on your experience, or have you seen that...
The tendils "filaments" are likely indicative of dinoflagellates, although, I also see what looks like cyano too. As for toxicity, there are around...
Hermits have a long life span, so, unless something is eating them, or there is a lack of food, they should be somewhere. They can disappear for a...
Dry sense of humor? Say it ain't so. Well I'll give you a hint, generally I think if you assume I'm half serious, you probably won't be off much...
Should be okay, may actually be better to have the filter bag on the other side, as the water is flowing out of the refugium. This is just because...
Great to see you started a build thread! Tanks looking good, can't wait to see it as progress and fill in. There is always something, sort of...
