I had an infestation like you wouldn't believe! Covered EVERYTHING! I tried every natural predator that I even heared of that would eat them. No luck until I added a male & female Malanurus Wrasse. I still have a few, but I think thats because I have to feed the other fish and the Wrasse's get...

Hi! I'm Chris. Was just wondering what part of N.Y. are you from?

As "Cheeks" answered, the root of the problem should be your long term goal. But, as for critters that eat (and I mean EAT) hair algae, 'ya can't beat a Sea Hare! Only problem is, once the hair algae is gone (and, it will be), you've got a very limited time to get that Sea Hare to another HA...

I suggest using B-Ionic 2 part Calcium & Alkalinity and B-Ionic Magnesium, and of course testing for such. Great products!

You mentioned you're a tenant in a 2-family house. Good for you! As a 2-family house homeowner (and I live in one of the 2 apts.), I can only hope that water IS included in your rent. (LOL). I include water in my tenants rent and I have totally outrageous water bills! Keep in mind that RO/DI...

...I must say...I've never heared of these terms for any variety. Do you have the "scientific" names? Species?

Lastly, sometimes a fish just dies, and you'll never know exactly why. That's the way it works sometimes. This is SO true! I had a Yellow Tang that was in great shape. Very active, the "king" of the tank. The night before his demise, he was as healthy (so it seemed), as could...

...Had to correct my reply: Marine Depot sells the S-1502 for $365.99 It's the S-3002 that sells for $511.99 and the S-4002 for $699.99. But again, a GREAT piece of equipment!

I have a Midwest Aquatics XL Denitrator (same thing, different brand), and all I can say is these things are great! Reduced my nitrates from 160ppm to ZERO and keeps 'em there. $200. is a good price as I think Marine Depot sells them for $500.+.

Mine did a wonderful job also. But before I could find him/her a new home, it died. Be quick my friend, it won't last long!

...A Very Happy Birthday!

It is suggested to have water pass through it and not around it, which IS kinda' confusing. I have mine sitting on top of the eggcrate as the water enters my sump, basically using gravity in hopes that it goes down "through" it. Also, may I suggest using the Chemi-Pure Elite? For a few bucks...

I'll tell 'ya...I had a major Flatworm infestation and only wanted to use FWE as a very last resort. I tried every natural preditor known to eat Flatworms. The list is emmence! Finally, after months of different fish and inverts, I bought a Malanurus Wrasse (actually, a male & female), and it...

I've read that "natural" seawater is 1.025, so, that's where I try to keep mine.

Very Nice! Looks Happy!

...The Happiest of Birthdays!

Sounds great! Good Luck! It's something I think I'd like to try one day. Following your progress...

Marine Depot sells the Korallin BioDenitrator (w/ pump), which seems identical to my Midwest Aquatics.

Geez! For some reason, the link's not workin'!
