Ive got moonlights already so that shouldnt be a problem and I should run the halides for 10 hours a day?

Awww look at ARMLOCKER giveing advice and hes NEWER than me.. personally I would go with narsisous snails or queen conchs

Ok after a seris of 5 gallon water changes I've knocked my nitrates down to 15 and was wondering if that was to high for corals. Is it? Oh and how long do you keep 20k Halides on during the day? I wouldn't be using any supplemental acentics either

well mine took a week too and i was hesitant but you are discribing ditoms which is a sign that your cycle is either near or fully complete. I would now suggest buying a clean up crew wait a while and then adding some fish. Personally I would go with 2 narisouss (spelling) 10 turbos 1 emrald...

no nutritional value in the least, well I guess the spinella enriched does have some value l0l

well the bio wheel is most definatly dead i thought you said bio balls well one chromis is a pretty light amonia source I would be carefull about adding fish but it sounds like the "brown stuff" is diatoms which will die off and are a sign your cycle is complete

I assume that you put an amonia source in there AND if thats true it sounds like you never had a cycle. This happenss occasionally when you use live bioballs and live rock you have enough bacteria already. You just got lucky

Ok this may be kind of stupid but I'd been feeding my fish brine and just bought some formula 1 because I was running out of brine and knew how bad it was for them and i had a question. Do I need to dissolve it like the brine shrimp or just throw it in?

well when i pressed on one it exploded and there was like nothing inside and the second one did too but there was some white fuzz on the inside was that one dead?

this might be a stupid question :rolleyes: but what does the meat look like?

well it could be a mold i guess i already took them out of the tank and I think the meat was in there but theres no way of really knowing i guess... ill go check...

DONT TAKE THE BIO BALLS OUT ALL AT ONCE i learned that one the hard way...

Ok first to clear everything up here are my prameters Amonia 0 Nitrite 0 Nitrate 15 Now here is my problem today I found not one but BOTH of my emrald crabs dead. Well I hadent seen them in forever and i had suspected they were dead for a while but are crabs canaries in the coal mine? Could...

yea i cant wait, well maybe i can, clean up crew then lights i keep having to tell my self...

yea once i get the halides...

it to FOREVER and about 5 or 6 landslides before i got thisone and im gonna get a solid background soon i had that for when i wanted an aggressive setup

yeah ill probably just have to give ya some $$ cuz my reef is still comin along :nervous:
