it was brown algae. and the only changei can think of is that i bought a used protein skimmer from a buudy of mine i did not wash it out before setting it up. who knows thanks for the info ive been using purple up a little to try to get the purple algae and nothing yet

oh yeah i have a rio 600 power head and a pump at 700 gph with only 3 feet of head.water flow is pretty good. i keep the feeding minimal and direct feed as best i can.i have started with seaweed for blue hippo if this means anything

i use a deionizer for water. i have a phosphate sponge in the backpack. backpack has a venturi skimmer. no microalgae in their yet - this week some time ill setup a refugium in the backpack w/ sand substrate some rock a light and keep the light opposite of the tank. my media iscourse...

just wondering what peoples opinions are on bottled algae removers. the good and the bad. if they work which ones are safer or better etc. any comments welcome

hey i keep noticing this stuff in my tank tht looks lik spider webs. it must be sticky because it gets stuck on stuff like anemone sea hare, snails crabs etc any ideas what this might be

:irked:

ok i know im new at this so ill listen to the reason --- but i see all the time in great reef stores and crappy pet stores that some tanks have anemones and dont have any lighting at all except for regular room lites. curious

my lighting is 4 55 watt compact fl.

what anemone's are best to get for a tank raised percula clown. i heard that some anemone's go better with some clowns.

compact flourescent w/ 2 55w actinic and 2 55w 10000k whites

hey everyone im new to this site. i was wondering what kind o anemone would be most compatable for a percula clown. he recently lost his brother and i want him to feel safe. thanks
