    Marine velvet -oodinium

    We are currently treating our tank for ick with Copper Safe and so far everything is looking good. We have tried with kick ich, greenex and Exodin without any success. It seems to us that Copper is the best option, even thought you have to remove all invertebrates and live rock. To us so far...

    green hairlike algae

    I do have a protein skimmer which was turned off during cycling at the advise of the LFS. I bought today a sally lightfoot crab, emerald crabs, and blue legges hermits. Would the introduction of some tangs also help control the algae? Does algae pose a threat to the live rock and the overall...
