    Nitrates off the charts! HELP!

    Another question..."ornate goby" isn't this a sandsifter? Sandsifting gobys can wreak havoc on a sandbed. As well you say you only have 1 1/2" of sand, not much really.

    Nitrates off the charts! HELP!

    Test "strips" are generally inaccurate. You might want to get an API,Seachem, Instant Ocean,ie: titration type test kit. Or take a water sample to your LFS and get it checked.

    How long is RO water good to use?

    I hope you are purchasing RO/DI water for your reef, not RO. Make sure if is just fresh, it is kept sealed tight. Since it is so devoid of elements, it makes it aggressively take in any pollutants from your home/the air.

    Why I haven't been on SWF in awhile....

    My reef tanks are kind of on auto-pilot these days. Just top off or do a wc, dose the 90 every day, feed the fish and corals. No new coral additions, I am scared after bouts with redbugs and AEFW's. So, last september I decided to try fw planted tanks. Here are the results~ My first, a 10" cube...

    What eats this?

    Actually, emerald crabs do eat copepods. I would not add any particular fish or anything for an explosion of pods. Their numbers will level out on their own.
