    Poll: best type of overflow

    ID these creatures please

    Oliver you want to syphon out all the flatworms you can see before you use the exit. The more that die in your tank means the more toxins will be released into your tank. This is what can kill your livestock. After you treat syphon them out too i guess

    What do you add to your RO/DI water

    I think most reefers add their salt mix to the ro and then mix it with a pump for 24 hrs before use. this lets all the elements dissolve and the ph and alk balance out.

    Leveling tank on basement(cement) floor

    +1 use the plastic or composite shims. Home depot has them. This way being its in the basement on cement, if water ever sits or puddles around the shim it wont rot out.

    ID these creatures please

    Yup flatworm. Siphon as many out as you can and try a 6 line wrasse or flatworm exit, or both. I heard you have to dose 2x the amount of exit as it says on package. Then do a big water change. Flatworms are toxic when they die, even more so if you have a lot of them
