Folks, if you've recently upgraded or renewed your annual club membership but it's still not active, please reach out to the BOD or a moderator. The PayPal system has a slight bug which it doesn't allow it to activate the account on it's own.
Yeah I have been looking at some of the online vendors recently and seems like even the lower end corals are incredibly high priced recently.
It also seems difficult to find people to buy from locally/trade with. It's a bit dead at the moment.
Definitely not bubble algae but it could be dinos or cyano. Does it tend to be less noticable at night time?
If it's cyano you can increase the flow in the area and oxygenation. Chemiclean works great too.
Dinos I've had great luck with 4 or 5 day black out and raising nutrients. Also uv...
Unfortunately not as grown out as I would like but if you like pink I have omega and pink hippos. Once the pink diamonds are ready I will gladly frag them for you both.
I had a friend with massive colonies of octospawn (200 plus heads and 3 or 4 colonies) in a 120g tank. I asked how he maintained the tank and he showed him crumbling expired dried krill and dumping ro water with high tds into the sump. I took his water home and the alk was I believe 3.5 yet...
Yeah this was a great sale. I went in on the 6th, got the 25% off, 20% for vital care rewards and an additional 20% for an early black friday coupon. Pretty much just giving stuff away.
And just to follow up a little further. I have the small version of this the k7 mini on a 20g running at only about 60% blue and violet and 20 white. I am hitting about 250 par in the sand also a nem tank. It can be set through their app for ramp up and down. These lights put out massive power.
