SRC Member piero Posted January 9, 2007 SRC Member Share Posted January 9, 2007 bro piero how is ur tank ready ? adding LPS ? i have see ur take ur live rock look very nice hope my wan same with u also my still white If all white, very hard to get coraline algae. My tank is actually quite packed liao problem is not too good with photography so hardly post pics and I am still waiting for my SPS to grow out. The top part of my tank looks pretty bare cos only got small frags of SPS which i am trying to space out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No need for ROWA at this point because you are going throught a new tank phase. All those diatoms bloom etc. are natural phenomenons. Like wad jervis said, it'll go away soon. And Please remove your coral chips in your sump. Not wise to put those chips there unless you are going to do weekly maintainence on it. Else on the long term running, you are just asking for trouble. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont mean the brand. But a credible and reliable skimmer like that of a HNS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used that for 3 months then upgraded (or should I say downgraded) to ATI Powermodule As for your PO4, as suggested by bro Piero... running a sizeable FR is the best... you can choose one of the many brands of PO4 removal media out there in the market 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...

Else on the long term running, you are just asking for trouble. Agreed... I removed my bioballs 2 months ago too... with an effective skimmer, you should let the organic wastes stay in the water column slightly longer to allow it to be extracted by the skimmer... instead of letting your coral chips (by the aerobic bacterias residing within) convert them to ammonia too soon 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...

I removed my biohome just 1 week ago. Seems not as effective in saltwater as compared to freshwater. Alage bloom getting out of hand. Let the skimmer do its job. Its more efficient.
