SRC Member albinosage Posted March 15, 2010 SRC Member Share Posted March 15, 2010 Wow so strange to see my ex-office centrepiece in someone else's home lol. You need more rocks, and also why not dose purple up intensively to increase your coraline algae while it is still cycling?

jackywongto Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 Siang, seems like you have a lot of flat rocks. probably can hunt for more shapey ones with nice arcs to break the dimension a little.

SRC Member teebs Posted March 15, 2010 SRC Member Share Posted March 15, 2010 Ok chief!....think only artificial rocks can have those kinda of shapes...got to hunt for those... Be careful of artificial rocks...they will cause stagnant water to collect inside them and may cause problems with high nitrates in your tank later.

jackywongto Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 I thought biohommes can replace the function of bateria colonization of live rocks but I was wrong. Till today, the effect of my biohommes is largely neglible. Hence, live rocks will be a better bet than articficial rocks Some live rocks has pretty nice shape. just got to look harder. I have seen some nice ones at AM before. The CF ones are really good. Also try to choose rocks with similar texture so tht when you stack them, it will look rather see seamless.

SRC Member albinosage Posted March 15, 2010 SRC Member Share Posted March 15, 2010 For cheap and nice liverocks, I go to T95.. Quite reasonable and the coraline encrusted rocks have quite unique shapes. Down side to this? A lot of hitchhiker/pests! hahaha... Anyway Jacky, how long you used the biohome for before concluding that? For best results keep it in a dark place to let the denitrifying bacteria grow and colonise.
