Give it a bit of time, dose bacteria, allow for biopellet to set in, get some cleaning crews like snails, narcissus and turbo maybe some brittle stars, abalone, etc to feed of the algae... Run a phosphate reactor over time should settle down if you also watch ur feeding send via tapa

Yes light needed, not necessarily from the sun... Just run the lights on it when ur tank lights are on lor... No guarantee wont die either cos other factors like nutrients, etc play a part too. If u have a sump light it up when ur DT lights are off can balance up ph a little too Need to constantly trim too... GL send via tapa

I think take out the rock its hiding in fresh water deep see if it comes out? Not an expert w pest elimination... I was lucky... One night I came out and on the light and saw it and it's hiding spot so I just kept camping there and monitoring and one day out of the blue it was hanging outside its hole and I just picked it our w my tweezer...

That's quite true... Hairy or if too big just pick them off safe bet...

Its really hard to pinpoint is its crabs or not leh... Many a times buy a colony of sps and find a commensal crab inside oso leh...

26C.. Usually the kickin happens when temp goes to higher range of 26C

Not too sure but im a sand person... My main use for sand is primarily aesthetics & probably another body for beneficial bacteria to host... I think the deep sand bed thingy doesnt seem that popular nowadays so i kinda remember reading somewhere that if want sand best not to have it too think else sudden disturbance of the sand may result in release of trapped "toxins", tipping the balance of the system... U could do a search on this Oh ya, another benefit going bare bottom - no sand storm in the tank send via tapa

Bro mind to pm me your acrylic shop contact? Wanna do up some small projects... Tks send via tapa

Thats really random send via tapa

Any details? Tank size? send via tapa

Ahhhh.... So they feed on die off bacteria right? send via tapa

I think the whole idea is to introduce some form of decaying matter to pollute the tank to kick start the bacteria "growing" process. Correct me if im wrong but without a food source (nh4/no2) excess bateria would also die off if we dose right? Sorry to hijack ur thread to ask this TS send via tapa
