So I ordered the items in hopes to make a mini fuge. Water is being made now too.
Tomorrow will siphon out what I can and clean the rocks.
I will also start dosing peroxide at 1ml per 10g. I estimate 80g total volume for DT and sump which is 8ml daily.
If this sounds wrong please let me know.
I read Dino is from excess nutrients. I figured manual removal and cheto in the fug e would help with excess nutrients. Also, read about peroxide but dosing. Trying to limit my dosing if possible. I'm going on vacation 1st week of April and trying prevention getting any worse while away.
The scrubber is way out of my price range. There is just no room under the stand to add any type of reactor. The sump has no room either. This is why I was thinking HOB its not to unsightly being small, plus its cheap. I am hoping by adding cheato this will help with the algae/dino issues.
I was thinking of setting up a small fuge. The CPR was big so sold it hoping I could add an algae scrubber but really no room for it.
Amazon has this for sale and am considering it for a HOB fug...
Marcus, good call. I did a little research this morning. Stuck my hand in the tank to see if the bubbles were hard and they were not. It was squishy and popped easily and a gas bubble went right to the surface. I can pull the three rocks out and clean them, siphon sand but not sure on overflow...
Been sick for a few days and slowly noticed some bubble algae growing and today it looks bad. Some rock I can take out and clean others not. Also overflow is is bad. Any suggestions on how to remove it other than manual.
Few nips here and there but nothing major. I have SPS, LPS, Leathers and a few zoas. The Zoas seem to take the abuse worse but alive, just doesn't grow much.
Correct. Placed in tank within 2 weeks of each other with other fish. Once they established territory and pecking order all good.
If I try and introduce one now will not work, trust me I did try rearranging rock and even a barrier.
Once let loose it was a goner.
