Thanks everyone for the quick reply. The lights went out last night and I haven't turned them on until now (10pm). The "algae" has decreased...
I must have grown some new strain of algae nobody has ever seen before!! No, I just haven't been able to find another thread with the same stuff I...
Water quality is much better now. The carbon filters are covered in crud and will be replacing them shortly. [IMG] [IMG] Went to the LFS and...
Thanks for the help guys. I'll just keep doing what I'm doing and wait to see if these last 2 fish make it. The tank is looking much better though,...
Just checked the tank this morning and the chromis that wasn't being normal is dead.... Down to 1 chromis and 1 damsel...
@reefbruh - I guess I don't know what you mean. What would be wrong with the damsel? I have an electric blue damsel: [IMG] @djbonney138 - bought...
(update) I have been changing water more frequently and have a carbon filter running with two cartridges in it. The water is now much more clear,...
So the gracilaria I pulled out of the refugium (which was white and dying) had probably released the toxins it had been cleaning out of the water...
So I did another water change and I hooked up a tube to the venturi in one of my pumps to create bubbles instead of buying an air stone. This was two...
Thanks for the help guys. I'll try the air stone out this afternoon. Don't have a UV sterilizer so I'll have to wait on that.

Hello. I have a 75 gallon display tank and a 30 gallon refugium. There is good flow through the system and I am currently using an aquac remora...
Ok, good news. Yesterday after trying to vac the powder the tank became a mess again. I put a dose of Crystal Clear in to get the particles to stick...
One other question, what's this karma thing on everyone's profile? I belong to a couple other forums (jeeps, etc.) but we don't have anything like...
After reading all this great information I think I realized that I was going for a FOWLR the whole time but just didn't know it. I do need to learn...
Now here's something I hadn't thought of. Because I made my own rock it's in odd shapes (my brother helped) and it's also lighter than actual rock....
I am a quick learner so hopefully I pick up on all your wisdom. For a FOWLR what is the big difference between it and a reef that makes it easier...
No. No. It's in a large tupperware container right now. I have been changing water more often now. All in all it's been in the water for about 2...
I made too much. If I were to use what I have it would take up much of the tank. So I've been breaking off chunks that I can use to stack and form...
I appreciate all the great input guys. Thanks.
