jervismun Posted May 14, 2006 Share Posted May 14, 2006 Leather sometimes do retract all its tentacles... then a layer of slimy film (very shiny) on its surface to remove dirt from its surface... it's a normal behaviour... have you noticed such behaviour before? How long have you been keeping these soft corals?

SRC Member Altantis Posted May 14, 2006 Author SRC Member Share Posted May 14, 2006 Usually they will return to normal pretty fast. Will montior another day. I worried any dieding coral will add more impart to my tank water parameter. How about if there is yellow stuff growing on the stem of the leather. I thought I once heard that leather able to withstand high NO3 cos they absort it... but if high PO4, they will be gone soon (yellow stuff will start to grow from the bottom of the stem to the top) See pix below to understand my "england" So I wondering whether what I heard is true, cos I only came across it now P/S: I use to have this leather before my tank crash few times (8 days Holiday to China, Big Fish dead & missing body... etc) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jervismun Posted May 14, 2006 Share Posted May 14, 2006 You haven't tackle ur PO4 problem yet? You should've gotten at least something to bring it down during the weekend. Go RD website, order from them. Ask them to deliver to your office tomorrow so that you can take care of it tomorrow. Your PO4 is at an alarming rate... I wonder how come you are not experiencing major algae bloom Quote Tank 60x40x40 Optiwhite Glass Tank Sump Elos 500 w/ Tunze Overflow Protein Skimmer Skimz Kone SK1 Return Pump Hydor Seltz L30 Wavemaker Hydor K1 Illumination 150W + 2 T5 Chiller Arctica 1/5hp w/ Aquabee 1000 Water Top-up Tunze Osmolator Dosing Pumps Grotech 3-Channels Calcium Reactor Deltec PF 501 Computer Aquatronica Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jervismun Posted May 14, 2006 Share Posted May 14, 2006 Yeah I can see the yellow stuff... go do something about ur PO4 The LFS replied, not recommending you getting the Sulphur based NR. Firstly, cost... u may even need to buy the MV monitor/controller. Secondly, very "risky" coz you gotto be very careful when you using Sulphur... any mishaps can cause you dearly. He is still recommending normal NR. Oh, his "small" shipment of the NR400 arrives in 2 to 3 days time. But of course you can wait for bro Shootsimon for his review on the cool-looking double chamber Sulphur NR... do ask him about the risk, see if it is really that dangerous.
