Well after a few hours/minutes you might see it not on fish :)

Is it a pod??? ..................

I will suggest to use Hanna's Phosphate checker or Salifert test kits for PO4, you cannot exactly know your PO4 levels with API test kit, the colors are so confusing, in the long term if you are willing to keep corals get Hanna's PO4 Checker. Send some pics of your blenny :)

Hi VG, Which test kit are you using for PO4? Are you running GAC? High nitrates and po4 are the usual reasons for algae and higher inorganic nutrient levels.

Thanks, my favourite is Goniopora

Hi , Check PO4 levels and try to bring them down, if you canont use a GFO Reactor use products like 'Chemi Pure Elite'

FTS taken today

Will be glad to meet you all there, I was wandering wish I could take live stock with me back, but that will be impossible because of long flights with so many transits

That would be great Floyd! I will be staying in Holiday Inn Mercy Campus, I will be arriving on the night of 7th September. I also need to know LFS in Des Moines which I can visit and shop.

Do you need a colony of Purple Acro ? :)

I'd feed them every other day but a lot of people feed daily perhaps more than once in a day, if you are skimming good, chaning water on time then you can do the same all you have to care is your water quality.

So who is coming to MACNA ? I registered and coming all the way from Saudia Arabia just for MACNA

Beautiful!! So are you feeding it daily?

Cool, I'd always wanted one!! But it needs to be fed very often, I love low nutrient systems algae free!

Will do it, thanks!

Hi Melosu58, feeding once a day Ocean Nutrition flakes different every day consumed within 3 minutes by the fish.

Hehe ran my mixed reef 150g with 0 `trates for six months and going above 0 is something very disturbing for me :) Well lets see what others advice. Thank you

Hi started this tank in January 2011, 150g tank nitrates has been always 0 but since i got rid off the cyano outbreak using MB7 I can see nitrates raising, using API test kit and JBJ its between 3 and 4 ppm. I have a Sulfur Denitrator (Korallin) in hand, need advices if I shall start it? Or...

Beautiful, wash the shell with clean water preferably RO/DI and you can throw it in the tank. It doesnt look cyano to me, looks like some kind of sponge. Lets see other comments. Looks beautiful in blue lights, can you upload a picture of the lighting.

Adding fish was optional:) By the way keep posting pictures too, would love to see them

Sounds like you are using API test kits, dont trust API test kits for PH and CA, for PH get a digital monitor which is very accurate, in API if you see 8.4 it is 8.3 actually and if you see 8.3 it is usually 8.1 as per my experience I have cross checked API's PH results with American Marina...

PH buffers raise PH as well as alk, Seachem';s Marine Buffer doesnt raise PH more than 8.3 even if over doses but will raise Alk in your case you cant use it until your Alk drops, eventually your Alk will start dropping during the cycling period.

PH in my 150g is 8.10 after lights turn off at night and after the night its 8.02 in mornings till night. Seachem's Reef Buffer is what I use when I see my PH is going more down which is rare, it also adds in Alk which I am usually dosing daily.

Are you planning to add corals? I would increase the MG and CA both and your PH is good you dont need to worry but if you are really worried, get Seachem's Marine Buffer or Reef Buffer which is safe to raise the PH. Get Joe's Juice to kill Atapsia. Happy Reefing!

Well if all other fishes are doing fine and everything else nothing to worry about, maybe the life of this angel was this much :) Buy a new one - Happy Reefing :)
