teamschreiba Posted April 24, 2012 Author Share Posted April 24, 2012 5 bucks says he dont You nailed it I have a bunch of snails, emerald crab, and hermit crab and I give them a lot of credit for the clean sandbed along with the undertow of the MP10 and the low nutrients in my water. My sandbed hasn't always been this clean but has been extra white with the addition of the carbon reactor. Link to comment
Spirofucci Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 Love this tank!!! Surely one of the top tanks here on NR. Link to comment
NanoTopia Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 Are you worried the carbon my pull too much "good stuff" from the water? I run carbon in my sump but I was told to keep the amount of carbon small, I have maybe 40mL carbon in my 20G. What are your thoughts. Cool tank BTW. Link to comment
teamschreiba Posted April 25, 2012 Author Share Posted April 25, 2012 Love this tank!!! Surely one of the top tanks here on NR. Thanks Spirofucci, that really means a lot!! Are you worried the carbon my pull too much "good stuff" from the water? I run carbon in my sump but I was told to keep the amount of carbon small, I have maybe 40mL carbon in my 20G. What are your thoughts. Cool tank BTW. I actually had that exact problem when I started using carbon. I'm pretty sure using too much caused the death of my orange monti along with a few other SPS. When I change the carbon now I use a very very small amount, so little that it looks like the reactor is empty And I find that I only change it when I notice some brown spots on the sandbed. I hope this helps and thanks!! Link to comment
teamschreiba Posted April 30, 2012 Author Share Posted April 30, 2012 Since my xenia is now in the front of the tank I found it's a lot easier to take shots of my clownfish so here's a pretty good one I got today Link to comment
