Yah thanks for the comments KClester and nwdyr. AHHH I JUST NOTICED A BAD ISOPOD in my TANK :( I seen my orchid dottyback trying to kill it but it got away ! ANYONE KNOW how to catch them ? Well i dunno if its bad or not but it looked creepy with big eyes. Not like the amphipods i have in my other nano tank ! Any help ?

Do i run what where and who ? LOL. Never heard of Chemi Pure elite. Nothing extra in my tanks except what they came with. Sponges and bio balls. Guess i could take em out and put in live rock rubble but i heard it would make ya have a nitrate spike or something so i never messed with it. No harm no foul. Leave it like it is :) thats my motto

I had my bioballs in my 14 until like 3 weeks ago. And never could get my trates at 0. Always were about 5-20 and soon as I changed the bioballs to live rock rubble they went down to 0 the next day

Thanks for the comments rebelprettyboy, So i have a question. When i remove my bio balls and sponge thing, how much lr rubble do i had ? Do i completely fill it up to the top of the chamber ? I mean all i have in my jbj nano cube right now is whatever it came with. A black sponge and thats all i ever pull out and clean every week. I think maybe something is underneath it. And then i have filter floss over that i change every week. Now in my aquapod i have bioballs and a blue sponge that i rinse out with tank water when i change the water every week. So i take all that stuff out the chambers and fill it up completely with just lr rubble and then put filter floss over the top of that ?

yeah it holds a lot of live rock rubble. I was thinkin when I bought the live rock to smash up for it I had got waY TO MUCH. But turns out I didnt lol. mines is prolly a lil over 3/4 of the way full. And on top of that I had the filter floss tray and the filter floss!

In my 2nd chamber, I fit about 2 pounds of rubble, that fill it about 1/2 way, the other half is for chaeto and my 10 watt submersible fuge light.
