DO NOT USE BIO-BALLS.

 

[snailheave]

DON'T USE BIO BALLS

 

[snailheave]

from afar this looks like
DON'T USE BIO BALLS

 

[snailheave]

well hello there ophiura
I HATE BIO BALLS

 

[snailheave]

[snailheave]

caulerpa is the devil

 

[snailheave]

time to put in some live rocks

 

[snailheave]

some coral rocks,

 

[snailheave]

and some base rocks

 

[snailheave]

after i put the rocks in, i found a hitchhiking ophiura. i decided to spare her life and put her in my tank.

Do tell....why no Bio Balls? My hubby actually wanted to put some in our system, I told him no, but I didn't have a good reason Just figured things were working fine & why mess with it?

 

[snailheave]

the trap detritus therefore increase nitrates and phosphate.

 

[snailheave]

how i arranged my rocks initially. looking back, i'd probably cure the rocks outside before i put them in my tank.

 

[snailheave]

then i added the sand. how clean it was... made me want to roll in it ----
