Sorry to hear this. You are very lucky you caught it early. Unfortunately yes I have heard of this happening. The person I know lost pretty much everything. The internal thermostat sticks in the on position which just keeps heating up the tank. Not much you can do about it except buy a better...

Maybe Amphipods are my problem too. I have another post on this too called dying zoo's. I have seen pods crawling all over them at night

Really everything I have ever read said 76 was an optimum temp.

Source water is R/O Temp is 74-76 sometimes gets to 78 but never fluctuates more than a degree or 2 in a day. I try to do 5g water changes every 2 weeks. I dose as needed after a water change. I try to test weekly just to see whats going on. I haven't been able to test strontium or iodine...

Ok so a couple of months ago all of my zoo's died off for no particular reason that I have been able to find. It seems to be only affecting the zoo's as well. 2 weeks ago I put a 3 polyp frag of green zoo's in there and now it is melting away too. I have searched the tank for nudibranchs but I...

But don't most people dose certain things on a regular basis? I read a post on here that people were getting a baseline based on there coral consumption and then dosing accordingly and rechecking that baseline every so often.

For curiosity sake I was wondering what everyone's dosing regiment is that owns a 29 Bio-cube. I would also like to know what type of corals you currently keep with that regiment. Greg

I guess nobody likes halimeda

Frank did you ever get your pictures off your computer I would love to see your merulina

I have some halimeda to trade if anyone is interested. I don't have a lot in my tank and that's the only thing I have to trade right now. Just looking for small frags. Thanks. Greg

Actually I have heard of a couple people doing this and the clowns actually started hosting with the anemone. I talked to the people that tried it and they said it worked. Never tried it myself though.

I haven't checked yet this week but last week they were ph 7.98 Ammonia 0 Nitrite 0 Calcium 360 Magnesium 1075 Salinity 1.025 KH 8. I forgot to test nitrates apparently. My Mag and calcium and ph dropped significantly within a week. The week b4 was ph 8.16 calcium 410 mag 1250. I have been...

Well I have to say that I am thoroughly impressed. I can't wait to see what comes of this venture. Awesome I say

Well my zoo's are slowly dying off. I have read other threads and did a freshwater dip to start. I'll do a water change hopefully tomorrow. Some white wormlike organisms came off in the freshwater dip as well as bristle worms, and pods. Didn't see anything else though. Frogspawn is doing great...
