Soo I woke up this morning to see a wonderful bacterial bloom in my fluval and so luckily I had some salt water already mixed so I hurried and did a water change.... Looked all good and clear after that yayy.... Then one hour later boom looks like butt again cloudy as all gets out so one hour...

Has anyone seen this before. I was feeding my nem and out of no were a bristle worm snatched the peace of shrimp right from its mouth!

Should be fine.

I have a uv hooked to my 55 and ever sense I have never had a problem with ich. Yes it doesn't kill them if there on the fish or in the sand but when they are free floating it will eradicate them taking out one part if there cycle slowly killing them off... Lets not also add crystal clear water

Very true! I have friends whose bta never bubbled up but has had for a year. Mine seems to know the light schedule such as in the morning before lights come on it will bubble but then later in the day like a half hour before the turn off it starts to thin out.

My tank I'm currently working on is a fluval edge 6 gal

Two clowns host mine and mine doesn't seem to move around too much it's found a spot it likes in high light with low alternating currents.

Does anyone know of a good submersible uv that will fit in a fluval edge?

They can kill corals if left in contact to long.

Looking good!

I top off once a day when I wake up for school like half a bottle of water (if that) and the evaporation rate is really low because the opening on the top is small like 6X4 or some where in that vicinity.

I'm starting this thread to log my fluval as it progresses. It's already a month in with some live stock but no corals yet. Comments and suggestions are always welcome! Second day set up after the sand settled down a bit. Lighting consist of two mr11 cool white 9 watt LEDs and 18" finnex ray...
