Coralline will grow under most any lighting conditions as some color variants actually prefer lower light than others. If you scrape some off the...
Over the years, I've read everything from the 'experts', from, "lunar cycles affect spawning", to, "any ambient light interferes with nighttime...
Agreed. If you're using tap water, you may be getting phosphates, regardless which salt mix you're using. FTR, people often confuse nutrients with...
Yes a good CuC will feed on detritus, but everything that eats solid matter produces solid waste. It might be slightly smaller, but it's still there.
That actually sounds like coralline. It comes in a variety of colors depending on cal, mag, and alk levels as well as lighting. FTR, mine is mostly...
Thanks for watching. Glad you enjoyed it. I laughed through it all myself (several times lol). That's the funniest thing I've ever seen on Youtube,...
Thank you! :)
FTR, my 29g softy tank has been running for over 1.5 years with no skimmer or sump, just a little GAC in a media bag hanging in a HOB filter and 10%...
Thank you for viewing. Glad y'all enjoyed it. :)
Thank you, Ryan. :)
Beautiful shots, John. Thanks for the full-size FTS. Tank is really filling in nicely. Looking more like a real reef every time I see it.
To remove excess detritus from the surface, you can vacuum it out with a gravel-vac. Just pinch or crimp the hose to reduce the suction.
Over time, if you're not performing regular water changes, wet skimming and topping off with freshwater may lower your salinity.
Thank you. Glad y'all enjoyed it. Can't say any particular one was my favorite, though. ;D
Chemi-Pure Elite and bio-pellets serve two very different purposes and can be used together. FWIW, I'd be more concerned about making too many...
Thought this was funny and wanted to share. Enjoy. :) [media]
Is your tank already cycled? If so then you'll need to cure the rock before adding. Although it's sold as "cured", I'd expect some die-off during...
Very nice. :) Correct... Battlestar Galactica was created in the wake of Star Wars' success, which led to lawsuits between studios and...
Yes, I've mixed brands when I was making a switch and didn't have enough of the old for a water change. Don't know if it makes any difference, but I...
Yep... and just doing his job, feeding on dead tissue.
