sweet sunny, i was lookin at them today droolin lol.

SunnyX · 05-15-2004, 12:55 PM

About the Algae-

What i did was go out and purchase more powerheads. I then took out ALL the rocks and scrubed them down with a tooth brush. I than cranked up the PH and dripped Kalkwasser 24/7. After that I left the lights off for 5 days. Little by little everything was gone.

Main factor I belive is the waterflow and Kalkwasser ,Plus switching to 20k bulbs .

SunnyX · 05-16-2004, 09:19 PM

Any Ideas???

An acropora of some kind...

Other than that I'm clueless... beautiful coral though... congrats.

I think im gonna have to get rid of the sand in my tank. My damsel keeps digging holes. This makes the water look foggy and I cant have that. Probebly gonna add some starboard when I remove the sand.

wooddood · 05-23-2004, 08:17 PM

starboard- www.usplastics.com thats where i got mine 1/2 in thick. i think you'll like it sunny i sure do. if you have anymore questions on it give me a holer.

SunnyX · 05-25-2004, 07:25 PM

Thanks Woodood!!

I would remove the damsel (just an opinion). Your sand bed looks great, it would be a waste for $10 fish. Plus, damsels may be hard to catch but removing a sand bed would be a grip of work and not to mention the smell. Ever thought about Chromis?

Ever try and catch a damsel in a loaded tank, they are smart?
Chromis Is a Damsel & can be very territorial, even though is said to be the least aggressive.
Just a note, no harm.
