Thanks,only question , what is cheto? Wayne

I am using a three stage filter for reef water including a r/o system. Thanks Wayne

That's sad about your rock. I would add some powerheads to the tubs to keep the water circulating and check for die off for at least three days before putting into your main tank. Good Luck

Try home depot or harbor freight for a 5000-6500 watt generator. They usually run around $500.00 and are great for short time usuage.

I have a coral beauty for two years now about 3" long and never see it bothering corals.

I will cut the lighting in half. I probably need to add the snails as I do not have near as many as recommended. Don't know if a lawnmower blenie would fight with my diamond goby? Thanks for the advice. I rechecked phospate and it is around 1.5 so I will add the phosban. Have a good...

Thank you, I checked on it today and got a few ideas, seems like I should check nitrates also. Thanks again Wayne

Need suggestions; 125 reef that is being overtaken with green,clumpy, 1/2"to 1:+ length green hair? algae. Phosphate is below 1. Water temp 80-82. Been doing water changes always using ro/di/filtered water. SG 1.124. 2 cinnamon clowns, 1 coral beauty, 1 purple tang, 1 orange cardinal, 1...

Hey, I too have blue mushrooms that are about 2/3 up in my tank using power compacts. Befor the lights come on in the afternoon the shrooms are very blue, but the longer the light is on they turn more purple. Guess this is a reaction to the light. You may expose them to less light. I also...

I have fed this sponge phytoplankton once a week by directing it from a squeeze bottle. Also there is twice weekly feedings for the other corals in the tank. I don't believe it was exposed to air as the color was good at first. Thanks for the reply Wayne :thinking:

I need a little advice. I purchased a red ball sponge two weeks ago and when I got it the color was a nice red. Since putting into my tank the color has changed to a tan. The pores have opened up and you can see red down in the pores, about 1/4" into them. The coral is on the bottom of a 125...

Just trying to add a little color to the tank.

I did a partial water change on my 125 reef this week around 15 to 18gallons of new water and I also added a purple tang. This has been three days ago and my flower pot coral has really changed. The rock it is on is covered with empty looking tubes that once had 2-3 inch tenacles coming from...

I am running a chiller and keep the water between 74-79 I am also running a protein skimmer. I will try pulling this off and brushing the rock that I can remove from the tank. Thanks for the advice:jumping:

:notsure: This looks like red cotton close short nap and seems to grow at any light level in the tank

If you have houseplants in the same room or close to your tank these could be gnats from the soil in the plants. They come in store bought soil and seem to hatch whenever you tend to overwater the plants. They are harmless but do make kind of a mess. Try cutting back on watering of plants or...

Hi, does any one have a good fix for red algae. This is not slime algae and it is fuzzy looking about half to three fourths inch long. Snails and hermit crabs don't seem to eat much.:help:

Originally posted by Bang Guy If there are a pair of threads then it's a type of sessile Snail. If there's a whole bunch of threads sprouting from the same hole then it's either a Terebellid or Cirratulid Worm. Typically, white threads would be from a Terebellid Worm. I looked at these...
