  3. elegance usually collected wrongly from their habitat .. most tend to have some sort of damage already and are dying specimens upon reaching lfs .. but it takes a keen eye to see it .. if other LPS e.g hammer , frogspawn experience same symptoms might be a case of low stronium , and cost it to drop their flesh from their skeleton . just 2cent

  17. my understanding of convesion : Nutrient -> Plant in take -> removal of excess algae or plant -> Remove excess nutrient Nutrient -> Plant /Algae in take -> Fish Eat it -> Poo/Bio Waste -> Nutrient Again . i try not to feed algae grown from my tank to fish . its just gonna reintroduce it back just like growing Chaeto . if u dun prune it , the nutrient is always in the tank .. Worst is when it dies then it release back to tank.
  18. they are quite aggressive and moody . sometimes they do that .. mine chop on SPS !! and clams then i give it away . best is try to fish it up . they sleep in caves u might try to spot where he sleeping it and at nite fish up that rock other alternative is let the aggression die out on its own . either he got use to them , or something might die . my2cent
  19. nah not saying ur doing wrong my meaning is to have it control enviroment is hard to replicate . AT : coz wanna think outside the box lol .. who would know 20yrs ago Liverock is the secret in Marine keeping
  20. i dunno how controll ur experiment is but a few factors to consider I am using more than 100 mangrove for controlling my no3 , so currently so far so good . but if u find that grape algae better , theres a few danger u might experience like ur algae go asexual .. and its good game to you . a few reefer have experience total wipe out with just a hand ful in their tank , some success .. so i think its still up to the reefer to choose . mangrove need a period of few weeks to settle in , when they start sprouting leaves and aerial roots they will start processing , i notice mangrove only start working when they have more than 4 leaves , every morning their leaves will be cover in salt particle , and they drop their leaves every 3-4days .. = export of excess nutrient as long dun drop back into water. just my 2cent
