VitC acts like a carbon source so it will help with bacterial population, lower n&p and may help with coral health. Ive used it in the past and i didnt really see any improvements in overall coral health. However, someone people back in the day did, it was a popular item to dose at one point not...

welcome to NJRC!

Another suggestion—if removing the fish is difficult, consider using a breeder box to isolate a coral and observe its condition. You can try something like this: Amazon.com Make sure to place the breeder box slightly below the waterline, where flow is naturally forced in from the top, but the...

I’d suggest grabbing an inexpensive LPS coral to test how it does, and temporarily moving the coral beauty and filefish out of the tank. Observe both the new coral and your struggling toadstool to see if there’s any improvement. If your parameters are within range according to your ICP test, and...

I was actually in a similar boat but reverse lol, they were out of stock at Biota but was able to find them everywhere locally when i was looking. I was adamant with going with Biota though since i wanted to make sure it was the correct species and i also did not want to QT as Biota has a...

i wish i had space for a separate tank, i would definitely do a soft/nem tank. there are some softies that look incredible. that xenia is definitely eye catching, hopefully it looks like it does when you get it!

good advise!

If you don’t mind ordering online, I recommend checking out Biota. I got my filefish from them to ensure I was getting the correct species—not something that looks similar but doesn’t touch aiptasia. Be prepared, though—the fish will arrive tiny. I kept mine in a separate breeder box for nearly...

I understand that, and this isn’t the first time I’ve had issues with shipping in general. I also get that UPS isn’t always the most careful. However, most vendors I’ve ordered from take extra precautions, like bagging the specimen or container cup as an additional barrier. This helps prevent...

Unfortunately did not, however, this is within NJ which i have never had issues with and also that is why i advised picking up vs shipping in my initial post. I am trying to work this out with him via email at the moment, but will see. definitely not a vendor i will be going back to in the...

If you're planning to order from him, I strongly recommend picking up your items in person. I decided to order based on positive mentions from other members and the good holiday sales he had, but my experience so far has been terrible. I received the shipment this morning, which was already...

Currently, I only use carbon (in a bag) and GFO (in a small reactor) to keep PO₄ in check. The carbon is mainly for general water clarity and safety. Beyond that, the focus is just on maintaining the big three parameters (alkalinity, calcium, magnesium). I used to use Chemi-Pure, but it’s...

absolutely incredible work! great job!!
