A refugium would just further strip nutrients ? I think the tank is pretty mature as Coraline is growing everywhere. I think I simply let my phosphates bottom out and caused a dino outbreak. I agree I'm chasing numbers to an extent but I'm watching Dino's suffocate my corals to the point...

When the lights are turned off the dino enters the water column and than you ZAP it !

The UV is to take care of the Dino's in this tank... the chemi clean will take care of cyano in my frag tank.

I decided to purchase a UV sterilizer for the tank in the passed 30 minutes. I think that will work wonders - chemi clean will help out with the frag tank.

Howdy, I am fighting red cyanobacteria in the frag tank and just like the dino's in my display tank upstairs it's suffocating corals - especially the fresh frags. It grows a film over & than the zoanthids close up and don't open until I take a tooth brush and scrub the plug. This results in...

I somehow managed to let the phosphates bottom out now and dino's are everywhere :( I added Nori & continue to feed pretty heavily to help get them back up however, that won't kill the dino. I see so many methods to remove them but I am just not sure which route is best for me. I just know...

Howdy, I have realized I will be working form home for the foreseeable future. I have decided that during this time I will be quarantining a fish thoroughly for my frank tank in which fish keep dying. I will be getting a baby yellow tang from most likely the Petco in Paramus. I am looking...

Howdy, This whitish mark appeared on my Caulastrea and I was wondering what it is?

Of course he was acclimated haha

Oh my hope all is okay - keep on fighting and keep us posted. Let us know if you need anything

I'll be so sad if RAP is cancelled I did just have to cancel my cruise March 28th to the carribean.. really was looking forward to stepping away from work for a week

@amado I finally got a hold of a PAR meter and found that my corals in my display tank were sitting right about 100. So I pumped the last up In intensity from 80 to 100 and now they're getting ~ 150 to 200. You were right in saying they're probably not strong enough.. a third light will...

I accidently knocked it off when I was cleaning out vermetid snails :(

Algae blenny was about a month & the wrasse was maybe a week?

How trusted is this vendor ? I've been wanting to run one of these for a while but didn't wanna spend 40 bucks

I dip my frags in Bayer - shouldn't that kill any ?

I just don't know where the pods would have came from ? I need to do some more research on pods vs parasites

Yikes that's a long time.. if I start tomorrow after my cherry corals come I'll be done by may 25th. Why do you restart with introduction of corals ?

It was not pods and I was feeding nori - the wrasse I know was a bad sore probably from parasite ? Idk but I think I'll go fallow and dose nitrates for a month ?

Howdy, So in my frag tank I had a six line wrasse & a algae blenny. The six line had died & against my better judgement bought a new one and dumped him right in. He died in two days due to a serious sore that wasn't visible at first... I didn't replace him due to being upset and now my algae...
