talkalot82 Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 So I was having some nitrate problems in my 12 gallon bio, and it just wasn't going away. no matter what I did. it always came back. I finally figured out what my problem was. It's one of my tanks that has a plenom in it. Most my other tanks have sand in it. I wasnt able to get to the bottom to clean out the debree, so today I broke my entire tank down, and moved everything temperarly into my baby clown fish tank and I put in about two inches of aragonite sand in. It wasn't as small of mm sand as I wanted but they didnt have the sugar size grain aragamax I wanted, and at this late hour of night you take what I can get. I got live aragonite .5-1.5mm size instead.though I didn't need live stuff. petco had it on sale and it was the smallest grain they had. I always forget how much sand really makes corals color pop..... And now I can also get another pistol shrimp and goby....yay for me.. It only took me an hour todo the change over. the tank is already cleared up... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
