Hmm.. that doesn't sound right.

B-Ionic cal. buffer would not, could not cause a hair algae
bloom and I doubt it contains phosphate or nitrates. Even if it did your adding so little that it would take a year or two with no water changes to build up to be harmful. Most people that use cal. buffers will tell you it is one of the top.

I've heard of it but never used it. I know Tropic Marine is a great salt and I would highly recommend it.

Funny story the lfs told me he would sell it to me for $8 because it didn't look good. Well it looked fine to me. I've had this Montipora for 2 months now and it's been growing leaps and bounds.

Some pics of my little orange Montipora frag. When I got it it was the size of a dime. My LFS threw it in free with some other corals I bought. I love free frags.

No thanks. For $26 I get 2 gallons of b-ionic that also includes all my trace elements in proper ratios for my coral.
I'm sure what I have will last at least two years.
Thanks anyway.

Outstanding- keep the pictures coming. I got that B-Ionic stuff now to- hope it levels things out for me. I think "we" should start a frag tank- let's clean out the garage and get started!

I've been wanting one of these clams since I started the new tank.
I finally found one I really liked.

I never realized I never mention my fish.
I have two Ocellaris Clowns, two blue Green Chromis,
a Yellow Watchman Goby, a Sixline Wrasse
and a Blackcap Basslet.

I have a blackcap, too, and just love that little fish.... It seems to have such a personality. I have it in a 20 long, along with A Bangai cardinal.

He's a great fish. I was worried he would always be hidden but he picked a shadowed spot out front and higher up and comes out to swim all the time. Everybody loves him.
I would have liked to have a Bangai Cardinal but I did'nt want to have to worry about my shimp.

Wow looks awesome! How many lbs of LR do you have by the way? I skimmed the whole thread but didn't see anywhere...
