Now remember we are talking about the dimensions of a 10g tank We are looking at a time frame to detect if anything is going on with our fish and the very short time the fish are exposed to our view looking through the side makes that observation very limited Simple test go to your DT at look...

That is a very interesting question. The waxing is in fact not a regenerative action but more to rid the surface of accumulated algae and waste. So if you have good flow over your leather you should see the waxing happen less frequent. In my opinion it’s a personal choice as to whether to...

For the benefit of our newer reef keepers I will post a picture documentary on the waxing and rebirth of my leather coral. This is very large and rust red color leather. It as all leather corals go through a period where they wax over and seem to shrink and change color. After a while like magic...

Flower this is actually not true. Once we have the bacteria colonized it expands very quickly to an increase in bio load. It does not take weeks for it to be able to handle a reasonable increase. Now of course a hobbyist can in fact tax his newly formed bio filtration with the addition of new...

umm are you taking about my pair
