I will take it!

first of all, the tangs i introduced were after the cyano had started, so i know they arent contributors, second i have zero nitrates to feed the algae, as for water flow i have a lot and this is growing not only directly in front of my seio 1500's but is in other high flow areas as well... From what i have read you want to cycle out this algae and not replenish it with water changes, does this sound correct? this all started when i was doing weekly 10% water changes as an experiment for rapid coral growth, i have now stopped doing changes for about 2 weeks now. My skimmer is way over rated for my system, Aqua Euro 135, i have uped my calcium reactor to boost alkalinity as i have read this helps as well. The egg crate rack i am using to hold new coral seems to get it the most with this algae, i am wondering if this is a contributor to this bloom. I am stuck on this one......................................................

I have changed my RO/DI filters about a month ago, cleaner crew is mainly turbo snails astrea snails, red leg hermits, blue leg hermits, and a couple scarlets, also have a purple tang, tomini tang, blue hippo tang, and a gold ring tang, sand bed consists of just 15-20 lbs of carib sea just to fill the bare bottom areas, i currently dont have any macro growing in the sump but have had no problems with nitrates, I also switched out my big filter bag that the overflow runs into, i try to change these out biweekly to avoid any waste buildup. things have slowed down some after replacing my carbon and phosphate media but still present. I am trying the product algae fix and i can notice some of the hair / turf algae starting to melt so i hope this works. I will keep you posted

Hey everyone I hate to say this but I am having difficulty controlling this red slime / cyano algae, and also some green "turf" algae as well. Ammonia 0 Nitrite 0 Nitrate 0 PH 8.2 Phosphate 0-.5 Calcium 400ppm Alc 8-9 dkh I have begun skimming wetter, changed carbon and phosphate media, have pretty decent water flow ~ 3000 gph (2) 1500 SEIO with wave controller and return line roughly 500 GPH on a 75gallon ~ cut back on lighting but this stuff spreads like a weed! Any help would be awsome. Jason

was that your actual picture of your micro dendro? Funny i found the exact same pic searching for it on google, someone must have snagged your pic of vise versa

What the title says, i am looking for a tank to run as my refugium and i would prefer it to be a shallower tank and roughly 4 ft long would be nice. If anyone can help, let me know. Jason

I am willing to trade for newer icecap 440 or 660 ballast and endcaps, and or sps frags let me know

Back up for sale, pm me if interested 175 OBO

bump these things gotta go

I would face it towards inward current so it can filter the water properly. More than likely when you place your clam it will adjust on its own. Also different species of clams will like different placements in your aquarium. Some like it on the sandbed, others on LR Jason

Hey i just was told from Jenn that she was heading up to Portland in the morning. Anyone that was interested in any of the corals listed on my thread should let me know tonight or tomarrow by 9 am otherwise i am not sure of the next time i will be heading that way. Let me know thanks Jason

To me it looks like that kenya tree or whatever type of leather is burning the crap out of it. Check to see if thats the only spot that is getting stung.
