  4. If i want to pre order and trade in, I get 30+10%?
  5. Slow till my sps tank now can only support sps skeletons
  6. Same bro, haha, i have only 3 items that's first hand for now. Water, salt and eheim 1250
  7. Haha, he's overdosed with vitamin m. Nice tank though
  8. Algae can have sudden boom and sudden death too
  9. great, you are on the right track,
  10. time to reduce phosphate and nitrate. snails only repackage algae into more compact forms. their feces will eventually be decomposed by micro-organisms and some of the phosphate and nitrate will be released back to the water. basically a smaller version of algae eating fish. snails do contribute to the bio-load. the better way is to export the nutrients, you can do this by wc with nutrient free water, skimming the water with a protein skimmer or use ion-exchange or adsorptive media such as phosphate remover to "lock" the nutrient until removal of the media after exhaustion.
  11. Proposed filtration setup: Protein skimmer will run independently, using filter outlet as inlet.
  12. if you are using multiple light units, you can control them individually to change intensity. if not, can always add eggcrates (black) to shield the light. another way is to increase the height of the light set. Since you are not having any livestock at the moment, strong light may improve algae growth, especially in nutrient rich systems
  13. Black + rapid death? Hydrogen sulfide? Does the food have rotten egg smell? Gills should be swollen and very pale
  14. what are you keeping? LPS and SPS don't really care about colour temperature, they care about PAR/PUR. Too much suddenly may burn them, slowly increase intensity. If you want clear glass, scrap, but make sure skimmer is active before and after scrapping and if your skimmer has no overskim protection, check collection cup level.
