Alright....You all have convinced me to give this a go. I am going to set up my first aiptasia tank this weekend. If anyone is local to Roxbury and has a small rock with aiptasia on it let me know. My DT is free of aiptasia so have to either source some or buy it.
The jury is out on this actually. Been doing a lot of research and there are people that said specific substrate grew more, cutting them in half, pissing them off, feeding them, etc. Then there are a bunch of people who say none of that helped grow them faster. I honestly feel like it is just...
It would be a few months. The biggest issue isn't getting them to breed, it's having the quantity of aiptasia needed to feed them. They burn through a ton of aiptasia insanely quickly. Most breeders don't wait until the aiptasia is plentiful enough and end up running out of aiptasia to feed...
I'm considering starting breeding berghia nudis. Is there a local need? I'd rather not ship, but if there is a good enough local need, I'd strongly consider starting up. I would need a few months to propagate enough aiptasia to be able to support the berghia.
Let me know if there is a need...
The FluxRX was working great. I had just started a second round of dosing when the dino's showed up. Since Ostropsis are toxic when they die, I started running carbon which wiped out the FluxRX.
As for the dino's....I haven't read much about carbon dosing for them. I joined Mack's group on...
I am fighting Ostreopsis dino's for the second time. UV has been running for a week so far. My nutrients were bottomed out, so I'm assuming that is what caused the ostreo. Right before this I was treating for GHA (I assume it's GHA) and winning using FluxRX. Now that I am dosing phosphate and...
I think one order was a month wait. The other 2 or 3 only about 2 weeks. A lot of the common stuff he has in stock and already in QT. If there is something he has to get for you, then of course, there is a wait. I have read all the negative reviews with him, but I've had nothing but good...
I order online from Dr. Reef's Quarantined Fish. I don't have the space to run a QT, so all my fish are DT'd by them before shipping. A year in and no issues so far. Reasonable prices as well.
Going to be adding a Tomini Tang and Molly Miller Blenny, but they won't be done with QT for 4-6 weeks. Already have a Tailspot Blenny, but doesn't seem to eat the long stuff.
Been so long since I had to fight GHA....what's the best remedy? Both phos and nitrate are showing 0. Should I run GFO anyway? I don't want to keep the levels bottomed out. I've already removed a whole bunch by hand. I'm going to refresh my CUC and add pods and phyto. But anything else I can...
