I haven't actually Lol I guess I'll scrub it down as best as possible then get help to move it out back to dry out and let any of the remaining junk die off. Then do my best to rinse it out with buckets of water.
Would if be wise to add more phosguard to my reactor to try and kill some of the hair algae? That with a combo of no lights and scrubbing should do the trick don't ya think?
Yeah that may not work either. Can't leave a tank sitting on the ground with vinegar in there, I have cats Lol I'm probably just gonna have to scrub scrub scrub and siphon out as best as possible. I'm not worried about the coralline
Well I didn't mean an actually brillo pad, I just meant a scrubbing type pad Lol
And I am taking it down, but I'm in a apartment complex. I have no yard and no hose outside so its a lil difficult to do that :/
Okay so the tank is empty of livestock now. Its still running. I need to clean it. I don't have the luxury of taking the tank off and bringing it outside and hosing it down unfortunately so how would you guys recommend I do this? Just get in there with a brillo pad and go to town? Siphon up as...
Thank you for that! Lol gave me a few ideas. I'm definitely going custom sump but I hear ya on having both returns emptying into 1 chamber, I'll probably have the return section in the middle. Seems the easiest and most efficient. I'm in the works now talking to someone about designs and stuff...
Well its been about a week and a half, still no ammo or nitrites, nitrates still at 5ppm. Did a 4g water change to try and bring the nitrates down, didn't seem to help Lol. Starting to see a lil algae bloom. Brown on glass and the rock so that's a good sign
