    Clove polyps

    I have used thread. I just place the leathers, or clove strands on the rubble or frag plug and wrap the thread around a few times in different directions. I do use invisible thread for sewing with out being able to see the thread in the material so you can't see it in my tank. It's like super...

    Nitrates

    I found myself in the same boat. Early on I was trying to raise cheato algae. Super unsuccessful. It would just waste away. No kidding. Not enough nutrients. I was getting my glass covered overnight/2 days with diatoms. Zero/low nitrates and phosphates under 0.25. use API/Red Sea...so eye ball...

    Nitrates

    I dose 100 ml of neonitrates and still dont get too high of a reading but no diatoms or anything showing up, so a necessary evil till I can tweak things I guess. Seems silly adding nitrates when so many kill em selves trying to export.
