Nice colors! Cool looking tank, looks clean and thriving.
thanks!u dont have any idea what i've went through,,,after i cycled the tank it got overtaken wit hair algae,,,rockwork sandbed was full of hair algae...i also got brown snotty stringy looking
slime i believe was a dinoflagelattes....i went and got a lawnmower blenny and sailfin tang....in a matter of few weeks with plucking and less feeding the hair algae was all gone...however the dino was still there but not much....i did added more carbon and did a few water change and i dont know what happened it just disappeared.
i also had cyano,the red and green one...i notice that if i raise my mag the cyano goes away,,,i completely got rid of the red cyano but i still have the green matting one on a few spot of the sandbed,,,,the spots with low flow,,,,i can live with it although im still trying to completely get rid of it ...from time to time i siphon it out....i did try chemi-pure hoping it will help,,,,but then i started to get white slime growing in my glass so after using it for a week or so i took it out....
i am planning to add a phosban reactor to run gfo,i already have it but haven't got around in putting it...i have never tried any stuff in any of my tank,,,only thing i have eversince i started the hobby is just a good working skimmer and carbon....
thankfully everything is thriving and healthy...i still encounter a few problem....i really really wanna put a calcium reactor...i just dont know how to do it...i purchase a complete calcium reactor at one time but never really use it and sold it....
saw your tank and i am jealous at your sps growth....my sps grows really slow..i know because i got a thumbnail frag of sunset monti,,,,after 5 months it only doubled the size.....its ridiculous....:idea:
