    I use ROWA carbon and a GFO media in a phosphate reactor. I do 20% bi-weekly water changes and only need to scrub the algae once a week.

    It doesn't like my halides and with the slower flow is better able to open up and catch food particles.

    You don't have a cave you can hide him under? That's a shame to hind such a pretty piece.:-/

    RTN=Rapid Tissue Necrosis. It's when the "skin" peels off of an SPS coral.
