    Battling Nitrates & Phosphates

    Today's update - my protein skimmer is pulling some dark gunk ! Which I'm happy about however, it's probably just yanking more nitrates out lol. My screen is great and there is no way a fish is getting out of the tank now.. but I fear it could be blocking light as you see some reflect on the...

    Battling Nitrates & Phosphates

    I'll hold off on the water change unless I truly need one - I am manually dosing liquid soda ash for any alk drops. Should I scrub algae ? If so do my best to remove it or don't agitate tank? I'm thinking: 2 Mexican turbos 3 additional astreas 2 dwarf blue legged crabs 1 emerald crab 2...

    Battling Nitrates & Phosphates

    Update :. My 3d printed pieces came for my DIY screen - so no more blennies can jump. I'll be picking up a blenny sometime this week or early next week and I'll be adding additional CUC members end of next week. I know you're gonna say a lot of change all at once however, I think my nitrates...

    Battling Nitrates & Phosphates

    Thank you for the input - I find a lot of this helpful and also agree that fuge right now probably wouldn't be helpful. I think my nitrates are simply bottomed out due to only have a single fish & any additional nitrates that exist in the column are being used by my zoanthids. I need...

    Battling Nitrates & Phosphates

    Some red slime is growing back nitrates tested closer to zero than 1. I scrubbed some of the slime. I picked up my parts to make my diy screen lid tonight and 3d printed parts come tomorrow so that'll allow me to get another algae blenny eventually. Other than the red slime not much algae...

    Shipping Coral

    When shipping corals you simply must make a very strict policy that they agree to. Make sure they pay via PayPal goods and services and If they do charger back have proof they agreed to the DOA policy. Other then that it shouldn't be too bad.

    I have no intentions of rushing on the frag tank or any of my two tanks for that matter. When I posted this thread and got opinions and said oh okay I'll add a fish Ill get this wasn't me saying I'm on my way to the store to add 15 new things and dump 35 new chemicals. It was okay I'll try...

    Thanks everyone for the input. I have somewhat of a path to follow. To answer some questions or statements : I do have maybe 7/8 pounds of live rock in the tank at this point which has some good algae growing on it. I have another 10 biospheres from marine pure which boast to equal 100...
