I’ve been trying to raise my nitrates they’ve been 0 for a while and phosphates I got down to .03 as of last night. I’m slowly trying to feed a little more to get them up.
Thanks! Appreciate the advise. I was pretty nervous about starting a bare bottom tank with dry rock but so far (knock on wood) it hasn’t been as bad as I thought. I had the filefish in the biocube and noticed 1 aptasia coming from one of the zoas so I moved him over. The aptasia is now gone.
Yes it was a local member and I went to his house and checked out his tank. The original piece looks exactly the same but it’s just the new growth that is pale.
I was hoping it was normal. My goal in the first year really is to just be able to sustain and grow the corals. After that I’ll work on trying to get them to color up good
For the most part they all have good color still with a little growth. The red monti cap is the only one growing and has good color on the growth. I know it’s still a new tank (6months old) so I’m happy that I’ve only lost one coral so far.
I have a few corals that have decent growth but no color. Here’s an example of 1 month color. The original pice still has the same color as when I got it. Any ideas why the new growth won’t color up?
I don't know if anybody has done one, but I'm worried about adding the clowns a few at a time. I can't quite afford to put 8 in there at once. What would be the best way to slowly add them?
I have the return pumps and wave makers on my tank and they are quiet and working great so far. I’ve had them running for 6 months and bought them used.
Looking to buy one or more bubble top anemones to start a small clownfish harem in my biocube for my daughter. Color doesn’t matter. Located in central NJ (Monmouth County)
