    Cyano/cycle question

    My tank has been cycling for almost 3 weeks. Ammonia at .5ppm and nitrites are spiked. Brown diatoms have started to colonize. But I have noticed on some spots, my rock has bits of cyano. It also has good algae growth for a CUC buffet. Should I do a larger water change while my levels are...

    Clownfish/Coral host

    Hello and thanks for reading! I'm setting up a 30g and realize how Nems don't do very well in nano's. I'm afraid mine would make a smoothie out of itself via the powerhead, which i exp'd in my 55gal (any way to prevent this?). Also they tend to move around and sting corals. So I'm looking into...
