Danik Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 Water change would be best, or just run carbon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reefnjunkie Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 I would hold your brothers head under water and check for sliming effects around his eye sockets- from what I just read you are probably fine especially since their is no livestock-A good water change would be safe so as to not mess with the natural cycle-Anything that can clear a tank of green cloudy water in minutes has to have something that does not belong in a saltwater tank Maybe skip the dunk test, depends on your brother Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trautman Posted October 20, 2010 Author Share Posted October 20, 2010 i think i might go with lion fish and ask him to move around the rocks... i did a water change and am running carbon, so i think we are in good shape Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReeFit Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 run carbon for 4-5 days, should be good to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
finch6013 Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 If you have a skimmer going it will most likely pull a lot of it out. Also carbon and a water change. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
