    Coraline algae

    Ok good! I read the spores get sucked up in it. I guess a regular filter would do the same thing then if that were true. I want it!. I meant that I would scrape it to get is flowing around in my tank to hopefully spread. I know it time, all will be well, I just didn't want to prolong it...

    Coraline algae

    Do you guys think I should not use my protein skimmer? I never used one in my 24g Nano and eventually my tank was covered in it. I have read a skimmer will prohibit coralline algae. I do have a small amount on some live rock and on a Bubble Coral I recently bought from Saltwaterfish.com. I...

    I'd use a turkey baster too, but I'd try and suck it up as much as possible without stirring it up. Stop feeding and turn off the lights for a bit. It'll clear up. :)

    My Poor Bubble Coral HELP!!!!

    I would have liked to hear more thoughts about this. Seems like Bubble Corals are always listed for beginners, but I read that a lot of people have problems with them. I have read low light, moderate light, and strong lighting....very confusing! Guess you can't go wrong somewhere in the...

    Why is my montipora bleaching?

    Thanks for the thread. It got me to sign up! This is happening to me too after a long time of healthy, fairly fast growing Montipora. I have always had a few hermit crabs...small ones, but when I switched up to a much larger tank, I ordered more hermit crabs. They sent me some HUGE...
