My 225 Gallon Set-up

Your welcome. I hate seeing nice tanks crash because of a simple oopsies.

 

Now, the diatoms phase begins. Thank god I got black sand and background.

Its not Droid, it's me fishies.

 

Diatoms.. havent seen them in a long long while...

 

Well the tank is a little over a month old so it was bound to happen. I have the cuc in there so i hope it goes away. I might add an algae blenny to help it out.

 

Those diatoms will clear up on their own accord Reefbruh - in 3 - 6 weeks your tank will look brand new again

CUC - good idea as they can start work on preventing more permenant strains of algae gaining a foothold

Algae Blenny - probably to early to add that, IMO - you need more green on the rocks and the glass before adding these fish IME

I can only agree with Steve... too early to add Algea Blennies. Just wait a bit.

 

I know. I am doing the patience thing. I am going to wait a while before I add the blenny. Maybe in November. But that's way off from now.

 

I know Seanizzle. i almost wish i can control time.

 

1st Bad Day

I know there are ups and downs when it comes to this hobby. Other than loosing some chromis which is a given, I lost one of my TR B&W percula clowns and came back to a semi flooded floor. Somehow the power went out and my sump over flooded but thanks to the person on this site I cant remember. If I didn't take his idea and put that shower floor mat under my stand and tack the sides up it could have been a whole lot worse. I thank you for that advice. It just sucks that I cant remember who suggested it.

 

Ugh, what a bummer. Sorry for your loss
