Busy little buggers. My jawfish seem to of slowed down for now . Good Luck with the hatch . ;D

Jonathon, I figured you were just telling him what was available but didnt want to see him get a bloom . Now onto your system . When you started to use the rocks did you get any bloom,any drop in coral colors or any other negatives ? If so what and how long did it last . Also do you have a...

Jonathon according to brightwell using all those at once will creat a hell of a algae bloom . I called and spoke to him about changing over to the full brightwell system . I was advised because I am dosing amino's and trace to not stop with them , but to cut back some . A sudden stop will really...

I just found this site, it has alot of downlaods for product brochures. I have not tried it yet but its worth the look . http://www.aquasonic.com.au/brochures.php

I cant find the pdf direct download but here it is ,all about the brightwell products and recommendations . http://www.wamas.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=24643

I never used that type of filter/fuge but if waters not flowing through the filter it can not be working properly . Try posting here for some help,alot of nano tankers use them, http://www.nano-reef.com . Alsoa picture of what is happening will help others chiming in.

Just a thought,is the mylar going to be able to withstand the heat generated from the lighting ?

Yep its an anemone , very cute alone but it wont be alone for long . :o They can and will spread out of control so you should eliminate it asap .

When you decide to go sps nothing in my tank is as purple as my garf bonsai . It just glows purple with the florescent green polyps,one of the prettiest purples out there in my opinion,and that's all that counts (j/k ;D)

Thanks Wendy . I want to start using the brightwell neo in my second reactor so I might have to do the carbon/phos together in just one for now . I figure to put the carbon in a mesh bag seperated from the phos by a divider so it can be changed out without disturbing the phos . I never did think...

I am not sure about what to add to the filter. I was under the impression that carbon and a phos remover can be used together . I plan on using both in one tlf reactor . If you have room a tlf reactor would be a good addition . They dont take up much room are cheap and take care of phosphate...

Hi, Welcome to the hobby . You do not mention your lighting system . If you are looking to keep corals as you say you will need the compatable lighting . The shrooms will not need a lot of current but they can spread all over if not kept in check . The new live rock you say has a gren moss on...

Well I am going to commit and try the Brightwell Neo system . I bought the rocks and reef bacteria today and will set it up this weekend . I am going to take many pics to document the changes . I am a bit reluctant in doing this because my tank is looking real nice right now but after seeing...

I read someplace that corals take up much more nutrients after lights are out for at least an hour (dont quote me ) . Besides the coral feeding more it also leaves less of the food in the water because it is being consumed. I think I read it in the brightwells neo pdf file but not sure . I add...

Paintman,why do you say not to put any sand back in or you will have the same problem in a year ? Just curious, I never heard of sand being a contributing factor for hair algae ,maybe I missed something . It just looks more natural with sand and the ability to have sand interacting fish and...

Sounds like you have a good plan . If you have a place to keep the fish for a few days it might help them in case there are any spikes in water params . Besides that it should work fine . I would also add to your cleanup crew so the new rock doesnt start growing hair . It will be a bunch of work...

If you want to sell or trade pm me what tackle you have,always looking to add a new tool to the tackle box, Paul

I don't know about the wood but chameleons always fascinated me,do you have any pics ??

Just what every house needs. (not my ad)...

Try not to resort to using a product to get rid of it . It might be fast and easy but it will not fix the "why" you have it problem . It takes time but you will get a handle on it and win the battle . Less light,less food,water change,manual removal and some type of clean up crew should do it...
