So I started using vibrant (actually need to dose again today) and have been manually removing. Now I've noticed a significant amount of salt creep coming up from the bottom of the glass. Is this normal? Or should I be worried about I bigger leak?
Just got back from vacation. Have an order or Mexican Turbos and other cleanup crews that should ship Monday and be here Tuesday. Also have a bottle of Vibrant. When using Vibrant, do you turn off the skimmer and any media reactor? Thanks everyone for the encouragement to get this under control...
My tanks gone to ****. Equipment keeps breaking down. Hair algea has over taken the tank and, as hard as I try, I can't get it under control. I also have no idea how much to sell things for. The tank is two years old, 75 gallons, 2x Radion xR30w, 2x IceCap PowerHeads, DC return pump, Octopus...
Good idea about changing the direction of the pump! When you say that you choose a random flow, it's not a preset named random, right? You just randomly select from the available presets?
From what I've read flow seems to have an effect on them. If I clean my power heads once a week, I keep them under control. However, if I forget to clean them or don't get around to it, they end up coming back all over the rock and sand bed.

I just installed an IceCap 4k and a 2k on my 75 gallon. My old pumps weren't doing the trick and dynos kept coming back. I don't have any SPS coral. What wave flows do you guys and gals prefer. I never had an option before lol.
From what I remember, there wasn't any real aggression before QT. The two that are now paired were certainly starting to pair. Like you said, I'm thinking the small tank and the added stress from the copper may have caused the heavy aggression while in QT.
I have three clownfish. When I went fallow and put them in QT, two of them beat the crap out of the third and I had to put an emergency 10 gallon up to save it. Now that the fish have been back in the main tank (75 gallons), I'm contemplating putting the third one back in the main tank. However...
I’m ready to add more coral to my tank, but have been put off looking at stuff at LFSs. Aptasia seems to be all over every system.
What reputable websites or members ship coral? Looking for softies and lps.
