Been to the Baltimore Aquarium, Shedd, New York Aquarium, Waikiki Aquarium and Sea World. As Paul said I like them all as they have their different niches.

from what I have read they like indirect light and some spot feeding. They are sitting on the bottom attached a piece of LR under T5 lights. I will spot feed frozen baby brine once a week. Anything else i should know to care for them?

I am considering increasing the flow in my tank to help combat the HA. I currently have 2 K3's one on each side plus the the 500gph return. I was thinking of getting two of these, one each side. Or just one opposite the return and K3. I I have a 75g DT. Will two be to much flow...

I would say about 24 heads.

I just got these Blasto Merletti's today. Under Actinics.

To my knowledge glass prevents UVB light from getting through, I know this from all the reptiles my son keeps. I would be more concerned with heat leaving the lid on as the water temp may get to high. Edit: If you keep the lid clean then should be no problem of light getting through to the tank.

Qwik, thanks for the post. I too read many online articles before making this decision. I run GFO and Carbon but right now I am not using carbon. I plan to switch out my GFO media this week. I really think my problem was that PC light as I never had this issue with my old T5 light. I switched...

If you use flex hose you would avoid the 90 degree bend and maybe get more flow? I am not an expert just throwing ideas out.

Thanks George. I have a large portion of cheato and Caulerpa so I hope they keep the nitrates down. I will try and pluck what I can once the HA loosens its hold. Some rocks I may toss, esp small ones.

You can also try 50/50 hydrogen peroxide salt water dip. Be sure to rinse the rock in only salt water after be fore putting it back in the tank.

In my experience the palys and zoas would melt because my Alk was very low 4dkh. Now that its steady at 8dkh they no longer melt.

George, I am adding the peroxide to my return portion of the sump for now. I plan to try squirting the HA with an eye dropper later in the week. I have scraped off the overflow before and will eventually. Just waiting for it have less of a hold. I plan to pull those little rocks out from...

Pics after 3 days of dosing.

Can you tell is the stand or tank wobbling? I would be more concerned if its the tank rather than the stand.

Interested in the battery powered air pump.

Like AJ was unable to make as this time of year is always busy for me. I too will wait for people to thin out there tanks to add the new stuff. LOL

I did try a sea hare but it died 3 fays later. I think it choked on the HA..LOL I took all the posts I read that it works for HA both ways. Yes, dipping is most effective but I can't dip all my rocks. Well it's been a few hours and I see some of the HA turning red/brown on the tips. I will take...

Herbie, I will take it. Let me know when to pick up.

So the journey begins as of today. I did the water change and started dosing the peroxide. I estimate 80g of total water volume and 1ml per 10g would be 8ml of hydrogen peroxide daily. I decided to start with 5ml daily and will do this for 3 days then bump it to 8ml. I will keep this thread...

I may have the magazine. I usually keep them for awhile and then give them away. Let me see if I can locate it.
