Thanks for the input guys all very helpfull. I think the general idea is get rid of the mud. And I'm glad that's the general feeling. It seems to cause more problems than it solves. And I'm forever picking bits of cheato out of the pump. I like the idea with the eggcrate and the caulerpa...

Dreaded white spot Hi as the title says my regal tang has white spot I think? It's not the best photo I can try again if it's not good enough. As normal I've read loads of stuff about it and got myself lost as to what is the best to do. I don't have a quarantine tank and can't get one set up in...

Another quick update I've hung the lights from the ceiling didn't like the brackets sitting on the tank! What should or is there a way to work out what the return flow should be? Mine isn't a jet of water returning but it's a good steady flow?
