Benny503 Posted August 17, 2009 Share Posted August 17, 2009 What? 3 months and you have that much coraline inside the tank? What are you dosing? What other equipments are you using in you sump?

Very nice tank' date=' I am having problem with getting coraline so I ask so much ;-)[/quote'] If you want coraline growth to be accelerated get some purple up. I stopped using it but when I was the coraline was freaking everywhere even with 4 urchins trying to eat it as fast as it grew. Where my anemone is the rock is still solid purple because the urchins could never get behind him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benny503 Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 Yup I tried it, John Manrow gave me a bottle doesn't work. Issac gave me couple rock with coraline so I can seed my tank still doesn't work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonBoy Posted August 18, 2009 Author Share Posted August 18, 2009 i got all my corals from a 3reefer in sunriver off craigslist around 2 months ago and everything just started taking off grows like weeds must have steroids in my well water or something ordered a RO unit so im curious to see if it changes anything. I didnt run the hallides until i got the corals either and within a month or so i had the coraline growing on the glass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
finch6013 Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 Yup I tried it' date=' John Manrow gave me a bottle doesn't work. Issac gave me couple rock with coraline so I can seed my tank still doesn't work.[/quote'] when my tank was new I took a razor blade and scraped the coraline off of the rocks that had it, in a high current area. When you scrape it makes a coraline powder that seeds the tank very well. Within a few months of doing this once in awhile I had coraline everywhere.
