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.
Go for it I always have a mixture. Also never added shells for them. I did have a population of snails if they got to big they just found the right snail and you know.
Still working, but if anyone is bored and is looking for something to do I can help out with that. I have a boat getting ready for the season. Help fix it, fish on it it’s a good deal.
Edwin has a massive bio load, big fish and a lot of them. They poop a whole lot.
We just piled a whole bunch of corals into his tank to eat up some of that nutrient.
And given the right conditions his tank is going to explode and become a unbelievable tank
If you can wait bleach/water it all in a brute for a couple weeks with a circulation pump. Then vinigar/water for a week or two rinse for a couple days changeing water daily and your rock will be in great shape.
Pumps will not stop any pests.
Are you going to do all of the rock work before you fill it?
I find it to be so much easier to stack and epoxy dry then fill the tank. The rock just seems to be more secure.
I’ve been wondering what I will do as my nutrient level grows in the relatively new system.
do I use the same method as most of my past systems, a big ball of cheato and occasional gfo.
or do I try my luck with a turf scrubber and if so which type, up flow or waterfall. DIY or store bought...
