* with some pics

Thanks guys. I'll have all of that info up in a day or with some life. But I did buy another filter to create some more filtration.

So I have a 30 g tank and all my coral has died ( zoas, hammer, torches, flower pot, favia) but my fish are all doing fine. It started about a month ago and I have tons of green algae. I do about 5g water change a week. My fish are 2 perc. Clown and a sand sifting gobie. My tests are fine except...

Garbage faced junkheads! Lol

Parameters: Trites: <.5 ppm Trates: 20ppm Alk: 80 (super low for some reason but I started dosing a dKH buffer so it should come up) I don't think it was this low the night before I found him like this though. Amm: <.5 ppm Ca: 420ppm pH: 7.9 Temp: 79.6

Thanks Snake! I'm pretty sure it wasn't a molt because he has molted before when I first got him, which was about 3 weeks ago. I don't dose any copper either. He was decent size. The hermets are small though and not hairy. I'll post my parameters tomorrow. Should I post a pic?

Okay. Just wasn't sure how that happened. Thanks. I'll test my water

I have a 29g with lr, ls, 5 hermet crabs and a fire shrimp. I woke up this morning and found that my shrimp had been shredded it seemed. He wasn't moving but I thought maybe he was molting, so I let him be. I checked him later on and still he wasn't moving from the same spot, and I didn't see...

Looking forward to reading most, if not all of these, as I am a new hobbyist. Thanks for valuable info!

I'm going to be transferring from my 14g to a 29 g. I have 25lbs of lr and 20lbs or ls, fire shrimp, zoas and hermet crabs. I've had the tank for about a month, and have had the inverts in there for about a week. How would you recommend going about doing the transfer? What would be your "step by...

Well I figured that everything would balance out more in the larger tank, but it makes sense too to get this one on track as well. My stand should be here tomorrow though. Anything else I can do to fight off the diatoms? Or do I wait for them to just die off?

Thanks for the response.That powerhead I have is not on cuz its too big for that nano tank. I have a smaller one sitting on top of it that is working but you can't see it in the pic. I'll try to blow it off the rock though. I do water changes weekly, about a gal at a time. I'm just waiting on my...

I just started a nano 14 gal which I will be transferring to a larger 29 gal. I have had my invertes and zoas in there for a week now but there is some gnarly looking algae growing that has gone crazy the last couple of days. My water levels are okay but my nites are are a little high. Does...
