Okay, my setup before:
I had the mp10 middle and to the back of the tank
I had the mp40 same place just higher up
I'm battling hair algae and cyano..
New setup:
Sorry for my terrible photos.. but should get the point across.
anti-sync
Mp10 80% reef crest (to the front and higher up)...
ouch, that sucks!
yeah, I'm trying to get my tank in order! I don't test for anything. Only thing I tested recently was phosphates with my Hanna Checker and it reads 0(which is false, because i have hair algae & cyano). I also have 2 pH probes.. I ordered a bunch of test kits so I can see what...
This is my old schedule: used to run 8am-1030pm
Now I have 2 radions.. and I just cut down the time today from 1130am to 930pm. Been getting tons of cyano. It only hits about 60% max
It amazes me how fast it comes back out as soon as the lights go on. I cut the hours real short today.. lights go back on and within 15mins it starts to spread like crazy again. I don't think it's cyano because of dosed the chemiclean. Really really aggravating !
how long does it take chemiclean to work. Lights are ramping.. currently in the blue stage and i still see a lot on my sand bed. dosed at 8pm last night
well, here goes nothing.. I just dosed chemiclean.. 1 scoop per 10 gallons.
70gallon tank + 40gallon sump.. sump isnt full the whole way. I dosed 6 scoops t be safe. Only read bad about over dosing.
I've got 2 airstones going. One is battery operated & it's loud lol. Feels like hurricane sandy...
