Stevaaaa!!!

Where can you get your filter floss in bulk since you use so much of it ?

which brand is your sump

Make sure your sump isn't really bad before you do this! Great idea though.

I always use filter floss i think it does a great job if changed regularly

Yes I’m doing that right now

As someone that has lost complete tanks over and over and over and thousands of dollars in fish, I want to say Listen to this man. Don't skimp and cut corners.

I have the same caribsea life rock, been running 6.5 yrs, still struggling to grow sps and nothing but issues. After following reefbum for a while he appears to have a similar experience like u mentioned. In hindsight i remember these dry rocks were heavy and impossible to drill for plugs but i didn't think anything of it at the time. Fast foward 6.5 yrs and my tank is still struggling to grow sps. My last tank w real live rock grew sps to the surface of the water. Been thinking bout swapping these cement blocks out for kp live rocks like what u did. Hope to see an update on how the new live rock works out. Thanks for sharing.

Hes trying to escape aggression from the other clowns in the tank...

Either he is being picked on or he is dying

Thats one stubborn fish

Haha I have a wrasse living in the overflow

That black clown is harassing that clown. Could be it’s trying to get it to submit as a pairing ritual. I would try to be a little more open minded to fish sociology.

Don’t tell them about the bulbs they are going to get ideas 😂

How many lbs of live starter rock did you get rotter?

Years ago i used fluconizole to treat my bryopsis. Good to hear there are alternatives now.

Was it easier to remove it after it was dead? I have previously manually scraped GHA off rocked etc. What a job!

Looks good

🙏 Roxy and Jack. Cushings 7 yrs later for our pups does not get recognition. There should be posters, shoutouts, pamphlets at all vets, humane societies, rescues! My pup poodle mix was diagnosed 4 days ago. I am outraged that Cushings is not publized and blacked out with allergies,( food, fleas, grass, the air!) I hate pharma that consumes good vets. Pharma is killing our families ! I’ve been educated in 4 days ! Diabetes another loss to marketing.

Ciao, ho acquistato questo controller con due lampade da 50w, stavo impostando il controller con il programma automatico Alba e tramonto però l’ora resta sempre la stessa non avanzano i minuti resta bloccata l’ora e i minuti non avanzano e non mi fa l’effetto automatico in base alle ore che ho memorizzato, sai perché? Grazie mille.

please let me know

hi, with suger dosing only nitrate will decrease or nitrate and phosphet both will decrease ?

Wow great work Rotter hard work in a tank pays off ! Glad to see those corals perking up.

Kept reef aquariums and coral growth tanks most of my adult life and in my 70’s now. Had to quit about 15 years ago because of health. Had a case of green hair algae in a display tank years ago and used capsules from a fish medicine store. I think they were an anti fungal but cannot remember the name. Took about 2 weeks but killed it all and never came back

Looks great Rotter ! Do you run refugium light 24/7 or opposite main lights ?

grow all the crap down there 👍even the bad stuff as long as its in your sump it aint in your main tank i even pulled crap from my main display to gro it there with an opposite lighting schedule

Any sucking noise?

Any long term issues?

Put unions in your plumbing so you can easily move sump or equipment

Why don't you just carbon dose? If your aim is simply to reduce nitrates/phosphate, I'd recommend you just carbon dose. This is for anyone interested in reading my 2 cents worth. Personally I think the main goal of a refugium is to create a safe heaven to grow life that would otherwise have a hard time surviving in the display. This is aim mainly at growing copepods which is primary done to feed dragonets. The side feature is to grow macro algae which absorbs nitrates/phosphates as it grows. You are required to harvest the macro algae to ensure removal of nitrates. If you don't and the macro algae dies, the nitrate/phosphate will just re enter the water column. On top of that, setting up a refugium for the purpose of nitrate/phosphate removal requires the use of light especially those pink/purple ones targeted at growing macro algae. This frequently leads to lightspill in the sump which creates a serious mess! Not to mention additional electricity cost and heat into the sump. If all you're interested in is removing nitrate/phosphate, I think carbon dosing is far more superior and effective. Mess free as well. Either through liquid, pellets or cubes. Carbon dosing works by feeding a carbon source to the nitrate/phosphate consuming bacteria. A carbon source is fed to these bacteria which encourages them to multiply. They multiply fast consuming the carbon source together with phosphate and nitrate. In the process, they create a nitrate/phosphate rich biomass which floats away and gets removed via protein skimming. When they come to the end of their life, they die and also get removed via protein skimming. Thats why we always see such carbon dosing reactors and whatnot close to the protein skimmer inlet. I use Orca Titanium Cube together with an airpump which has worked very well for me.. ua-cam.com/video/3YsZmUyCE1A/v-deo.html

I grow codium in my reef tank and have no hair algae anywhere its great stuff

I wisjh i could run a skimmer on my reef tank but i have a orange frilly sponge and you cant run a skimmer with them

if the canister filter needs to be cleaned every few weeks based on your experience, a sump just needs to be cleaned 1-2X per year

Clean up crew !!!!

I run the same thing now. I’m wanting to switch to a sump.

Turbo snails about a dozen of them will mow it down but it will take some time probably over a month before its gone. Your options are limited though not having a sump.

The water changes are feeding the algae outbreak along with the lighting intensity and/or the length of lightning time. Also see if the ambient light from the windows is spurring algae growth. Ease up on water changes and cut the lights down to less then 7-8 hours a day for now. That’s my recipe. Hope it helps

The only way to keep hair algae at minimum is having it constantly being eaten. As in nature algae is present, they are just kept at bay due to the fish. Do you have herbivore fish that actually eat algae? I have 5 tangs in my 6 foot tank. They constantly pick at it during the day. For snails I personally like truchus because they reproduce. At night they really roam around the rocks. With snails, I do not recommend elevated magnesium 1400+. They become lethargic and die off slowly in high magnesium.

Problem with doing the hydrogen peroxide is all that dead algae releases the nutrients back into the water column feeding new algae, vicious cycle.

Cleanup crew and let them do the work for ya, effective and easy peasy. Check out reef cleaners , they sell your invert solution.

Hi. Could you please tell What is your program step by step? I mean hour and % of blue and White? Thanks

Use an algae scrubber

Are you sure it’s not Bryopsis if it’s the fluffy kind? Only thing to do is Flux RX.

It's simple, my friend algae means an absence of herbivores and you pulling out. Get more urchins in there, long spines do best but suck most. Also add like 90 CUC. And use poly filter to help. Shameless plug. Hit us up for CUC. Aquarium Services LLC in los angeles county.

Get a shit ton of turbo snails and ever bigger shit load of smaller ones. You’ll have to manually remove the long stuff but they WILL eat the rest of the stuff your fingers can’t pinch. Then one small water change after you start to see it disappearing

I no longer get green hair algae in my display tank after I started growing Chaetomorpha in my sump.

Turbo snails and a waterfall scrubber, i use one from clearwater aquatics
