    I got coralline only growing in my skimmer!

    Mine started to grow on my equipment also. Powerhead, skimmer return, overflow box. Then all of sudden it started to spread to the rocks and glass. I agree with maintaining the proper calcium levels and it should only be a matter of time.

    my reef in progress

    Looks good. Definitely get at least another 20lbs of LR. As for the LS you could add a 20lb bag and you should be good to go. Now is the time to add it before you start stocking any fish or coral. Lighting looks sufficient. You may want to lower it a few inches if your not experiencing any heat...

    Toadstool Question

    Just picked up a nice toadstool from my LFS. I have 300w(2 150w HQI) MH. Should i place it on sand and let it slowly get introduced to the light? or is it ok to put it in the spot i have picked out which is about mid tank?

    another cycle question LOOK!!!!!!!!

    Dont do a change until your nitrites are at 0. You will make the cycle longer. Be patient. It takes time for the bacteria to convert.

Tested the tank and here are the levels.... ammonia - 0 nitrite - 0 nitrate - 10 ph - 8.2 sg - 1.025 temp - 80...
