We will figure it out. Probably on a Saturday

[kwandrsn]

ok so gonna try to get cyano out. Do you start the airline siphoning like I would my gravel vac then suck up the cyano right? if so do I pour the water back in my tank?

[kwandrsn]

Ok sucked some cyano out easier than I thought lol.
Removed some of the empty snail shells

To explain that the guy I bought the tank from pulled the rock out along with snails and the in a bucket and let dry out and put sand in another bucket. I threw all the snail shells in to help boost ammonia when cycling. I removed 16 and left 5 of the bigger cool looking ones some are covered in coraline algae.


Ran a bead of super glue gel around the hob filler intake where it was joined. I was having to remove salt buildup almost daily so I hope the glue will fix that.

Found out that if I have the surface skimmer fully engaged it isn't sucking water from bottom of intake tube so I guess I need to have it fully engaged

[kwandrsn]

I wish this tank was shorter lol. Sitting here waiting for my super glue to dry. If it would have been something I didn't want glued it would be rock solid by now lol

I let my water evaporate some cause it was at 1.024 now it is 1.026 do I added some ro water when I get it to 1.025 I'm gonna mix up a gallon to fill the tank back up where I was sucking cyano out

Don't put the water back in the tank.

That worm sounds like a detritovore. I can't remember the name but if you google "reef tank hitchhikers" you should find it.
