It is good to know about testing the mix before adding it to tank. I will start doing that. So far I have had good luck with IO. Never even thought to check it prior to change. Good idea. Thanks.

Oceana, I agree! My grandchildren look forward to visiting and stand for hours watching and listening to me answer questions. They are extremely curious and it is a wonderful way for them to begin understanding what this wonderful planet has to offer! It gets them started on caring about the...

They are bristleworm larvae, if they are very tiny, but a little chubby, and white.

If you really believe its ok to disrupt the coral reefs around the world, check out Google and type in Coral reefs. They are all threatened by natural accurances and by man. Very much so. If you really want to know. There are many sources to check out and they are not fanatics. The facts are...

I am back to square one! Less light, less feeding, OR water for months now, and thought the slime was on the way out, it is worse! With new lights I thought that would also help, but trying to enjoy my beautiful tank and as I am looking it seems to develop red slime right in front of me. I...

Must be a shelless snail, or maybe even a nudibranch! Any color to it? Watch what it likes to eat,carefully. Things may look really cool but can be a disaster or, it might not be. I did have a large shelless snail that used to move up the glass but it would eventually take the shape of an...

Thanks. Will suggest to her to lower again. Wish she would get on these forums!

Hmmm:confused: Well, I have very little coraline algea also, but have high phosphates and always a high nitrate reading, so decided from others info. that that was the reason I have so little coraline algea. When I started out years ago I had developed lots of that algea, but in changing things...

I mean "no silicates".

Any one ever use Red Sea Salts? I use Instant Ocean and have for years, just liked what I have read about it, but no mention of silicates anywhere in the ingrediants. I like to see"no sulicates".

Had a what I called paisley one for years: then when it just seemed to disappear, I purchased a Psych. green. Love it. Bang Guy: both? Are they male and female? or both female? Interesting since that is another mis-informational tid-bit of info.. Have always read and been told you can't...

Is there a syphon method that would remove algea and return water into tank? :notsure:

At this point, I believe water flow, the current needed to keep area free of cyano is my belief also. If I can figure out how to get this teeny but powerful air flow pump in my tank, I want it to blow perpindicular with the back glass and see if it makes a difference. All my flow is from top...

What would be wrong with useing a natural bacteria that eats red slime and other bothersome algea? There is a product I have seen advertised as a bacteria, powder form.

Clown eggs almost look like beautiful pink polyps at first. Then they turn purple, then gray, then little silver eyes are distinguishable and they hatch.. Amoeba like matter? Is it mobile? Any pics?
