the goldfish feeders are actually for this guy in my FW tank.
he eats around 6-10 daily. if there are any dead ones (just died) i feed them to the anemone, but rarely if that. I will take your word on the silversides, my buddy uses them for his coral cat shark and it loves them. and woodstock: the "bubble algae" I am refferring to isnt really like caulerpa or the actual algae that is common. I am referring to a slimy algae nusiance that is covering EVERYTHING!!!!!! its bright green, slimy, and it has bubbles all over it. when i blow water over it with a baster it blows the bubbles off (product of photosynthesis?) but it is starting to blanket my SB. its annoying because I cant really do anything with it. all the LR is fine, except for a weird sponge that popped up out of nowhere, but the entire back of the tank, sandbed, and my thermometers, EVERYTHING is covered. its starting to scare me honestly. could this be a product of the mini cycle? its been about 2 weeks almost since my major move. could something be dead and I not know it? I also reduced my light timers to help, if at all. 7 hours, (12-7) for daylight, 11 hours for actinics (11-9). i reduced feeding, and i dont know what else to do. I IZ CoNfuuuuZZeDdD
TIY for ANY help.
