Have a 29 gallon bow front a lil on the tall side. I need help trying to understand lighting because I want to have sps and lps corals in it. I feel as if lighting is the last piece of the puzzle to get this thing going. Almost done cycling
That's what I was thinking at first was that I wasn't feeding them enough but I know it's not the case. They seem to be doing it for more then construction then anything else so I think I am gonna try I put something sturdy on the corners so that they can't get to it.
A ro di system uses reverse osmosis that filters the water on a molecular level. It takes out all the hard metals that water conditioners just don't do. When your investing so much into a salt water tank it's best to get the best quality water to it. Don't do what we did and learn the hard way...
Also the lighting has been reduced to 6 hours a day and feeding of fish to small pellets twice a week. Nitrates and nitrites are at a minimum to include ammonium.
I had this red algae issue for a few weeks now and my Lfs gave me some anti biopics to take it out. It worked wonderfully and we stopped the over lighting that we did. The hammer is doing fine. But the Duncan not so much. He hasn't been fully out in a week and when he does peak it's like it's...
So there I was getting in my tank time(staring ever so gently 2 inches away from the glass) and I noticed that my electric blue is picking at the sealent at the corner of the tank. Not sure what to do about this. I don't think it's eating the sealent but just trying to take it off.
