Ok guys....I have taken the advice of the forum and got a 20 long QT tank. I have have it up for about 4 weeks and seeded it with a spounge form my main tank. Also I had some extra LR so I threw it in there as well. However the tank over time now has debris from the LR and brown algea in it. I guess this is ok? It just looks bad and to think Im going to throw a fish in there for 4-6 weeks? All of the levels seem to be ok and holding except for the PH. I had it around 8.2 when I started it and it dropped to around 7.8. I now have it back to around 8.2 to 8.4. Once I put a fish or 2 in there, this is going to be nutes trying to keep all of the levels right isnt it? Being that it is a small tank? Any advice? I really want to protect my main tank but Im wondering if I will end up killing fish before they even get to the main tank....
THANKS
