It's ALL gotta go!! Nitrate (NO3) reduction is directly proportional to percentage of Water Change. Allen's home-made formula...currentNO3-((%WC*.01)currentNO3)=finalNO3 (thanks Luukosian) This means if you change 50% of your total water volume (That's EVERYTHING) you'll get a net reduction of (NO3) somewhere around 50%. Ask me about how to increase your REEF budget without going without FOOD!!

| Golden Moray | Re: My 72g build Thanks Doni! Everything in the tank seems to like the new scaping a lot better! Lots more growth since we've moved the tank!

| Fuzzy Sticks ![]() | Re: My 72g build Holy GSP! Looks great Stace! I don't think your having a huge outbreak of algae but it appears you could use a little more indirect flow. Other then that your tank looks pretty good to me ![]()

| Golden Moray | Re: My 72g build Thanks Frankie, that pic is a little old... the HA has overcome the tank since then. More indirect flow? Where else would you say? There is already a LOT of flow, see how far the Xenia is stretching? That's because of the current. The only other powerheads I have are 3 other brand new Koralia 4's (waiting for the 220...got a good deal on them) and putting another in makes a complete sand storm no matter where I put it. I am not saying your wrong at all... just looking for suggestions.

| Fuzzy Sticks ![]() | Re: My 72g build I did not know you had that many pumps in there. From the look of the GSP they seem to be pretty still. I guess it's because were looking at still pictures ![]()

| Golden Moray | Re: My 72g build I'm sorry, I stated that wrong. I have three more, sitting in the house...not in the tank. The GSP's move pretty good, I take ALL pictures with the Koralia off, leaving the return on, so it will show SOME flow, but not like normal. I am not saying your wrong at all, it probably is a factor of my flow that something needs to change...

| Fuzzy Sticks ![]() | Re: My 72g build Well, I have been wrong many times. That's why I am getting so good at this Still and all I am amazed at the amount of GSP you have. It looks very cool. Reminds me of the anemone tank in Atlantis Aquarium in NY.

| Golden Moray | Re: My 72g build I honestly believe that it is a pink pincusion. But, shows very white. I was up at a LFS this weekend, they had it for $25, a medium sized one at that. The urchin does have a tint of pink to it, you really just can't tell in the pics. If you search back, where he is carrying the snail shells with HA on it, that's what he looks like in the reef daily.
