Hi all.
good morning awakening, found in the tank, this little xenia,
question:
I have to leave them where they are, in the sand or should I put it in a rock?

That stuff will grow anywhere, its a weed lol. You r probably better off trying to attach it to a medium sized rock. Its a pain to attach. You have to tie it on with fishing line. If iys on a rock, it gives you the ability to move it around and keep it at bay. You are going to have to frag it alot so it dosent take over your tank. Its a nice coral because it helps keep your water clean

sorry it seemed like a xenia, instead it is a sarcothelia edmondsoni
found on google.

it is good to keep it?

but how it ended in the tank do not know,

always of the same opinion fishman?

if risk of infesting the tank can also remove.

It looks like a type of Anthelia. Thats a good coral and handled the same as the Xenia. I believe they are related in some way. I would still place on a rock so you have some control over it. You would attach with fishing line also. If it is Anthelia, its gonna stink like a garbage dump when you pull outta the tank to attach to a rock.

Hi all.
I arrived at 28 days from the beginning of this adventure. Use the ZEOvit.
are inserted in the tank a bit of fish and soft corals and lps.
a week I introduced a acropora, which seems to be in good health,
I put the photos, the values ??are all good, except for phosphates but are coming down, now I'm at 0.25.
What do you recommend?
I can put up other corals or wait for the moment?

 

[crox99]

Prova a portare I fosfati a zero.

There'm trying to carry phosphates to zero, but you think it might put other corals in the coming days?

Hi all
today I did the test:
PO4= 0.3
Temperature = 25
PH = 7.9 day. 7.6 of night
salinity = 34.5
KH = 7.7
CA = 467
MG = 1400
<acronym title="Nitrate">NO3</acronym> = 0
K = 480
NH4 = 0
Redox = 280
I think they are good, what do you think?

you think you can add more or SPS corals for the moment better than not?

here is a photo taken yesterday

If the other corset in your tank are doing ok, than i say add more .
From your test results, your pH is a lil low but i woukd leave it. Ive seen people crash theirtanks chasing pH.i would still work on lowering your phos
Good luck and happy reefing

thank you,fishman
I'm not damning to raise the PH,
I would like to enter a reactor kalkwasser to try to stabilize the PH down a little and phosphates,
I'm using the ZEOvit, (I do not know if you've ever used or read) that you should not use a reactor resins, phosphates, I have to lower them slowly with some products of the method.
think that the reactor kalkwasser will solve anything?
thanks for the compliments,

moved a little higher and glued to the rock,
