So a friend of mine is enamored of my 58 reef I've started to set up. He built his house about 10 years ago with a large in wall tank area, but...
I'm really happy with my 150w XM 15000K bulbs.
+1 for ultimately doing the right thing. Even if the LFS flushed it, you probably saved a lot of fish and the hassle of dealing with a dead nem later...
So I took a rock by LFS today for a better in-person check... owner said it's a type of red algae, prob not cyano. It is powdery, and not at all...
Reef Crystals, dissolves quick, no residue.

So I have this red stuff forming in my tank. It's mostly on this one dead brain, but it's also on most of my rocks to a much lesser degree. Worried...
I have 3 green chromis in my tank. They all hang out together.
happy or bored... life in a tank probably not much different than life on an Island... My clowns are hosting a frog spawn... they're covered in...
I have these all over one rock in my tank: [img] My initial ID is a Foram of some type? The Red Tree Forams I've seen are much brighter red, these...

I added my CUC at 10 days, and they're all doing quite well. I have lots of live rock for them to graze on. If you're really concerned about their...

2x a day every other day with AquaDine spirulina and krill, 1 or 2x a week I replace the flakes with some misis shrimp. 2-3 medium krill flakes and...
I hear you on the valves going bad.... I've used many of them for irrigation, and they're not perfect. Most failures I've seen on them are a result...
probably, I don't have a reef devil, but in theory they're the same. Mine didn't do anything for a few days so I turned it off and let the tank cycle...
At the very beginning, it's a very good place to start... I would mix the salt in now and let it sit as long as possible (up to 24 hours) to let it...
Sorry, I probably missed something but what are "****ons"?
Sounds like you got it all worked out... but FWIW, the very top of my Durso (the cap w/ vent hole) is about level with the top of my over flow box. I...
There's red bubble algae at one of my LFS's .. along with a horrible aptasia infestation, and giant green bubble algae... I swear if I didn't know...
