Snow's 2.9G O.S.P.R. Mushroom Mansion - Prowler on the Prowl.
Snow_Phoenix replied to Snow_Phoenix's topic in Pico Reefs
I know - an outbreak in a tank that size would be disastrous. 😞 Not sure. Never really heard of it, but even if it could, I can't and won't put a sixline in a 2.5G. It's unethical, and wrasses love to swim. I have a pink streak in my 60G and she's making use of all areas of my tank, constantly darting from rockwork to rockwork. Sixlines are even more active than pink streaks, I think.- 384 replies

That’s good to hear. Masked gobies are one of my favorites. I have yet to see a large group of them shoaling the an aquarium as they do in the wild though.

Thanks! Trying to be super picky about what goes in the pico which is really hard bc I like so many types of coral. I saw a lot of frags I really wanted at the coral show I attended, but I just didn't see them fitting the theme/look of the tank, so I had to pass.

Its 100l, but the actual volume of water is 80l (20 litres displaces by the sand) and its in the cycling process, im planning on keeping a stomatopod and currently have a turbo snail and a nassirus snail (plus some hitch hickers) just to help cycle the tank. The algae is currently on the single piece of live rock i have (will be getting more soon) i just want to keep it in check really as i am going for a rock pool theme for the tank

I didn't think 80/81 was too much of an issue. I just know most keep them cooler for various reasons.

Has anyone had any success transplanting a mushroom off of a frag plug? I don’t like the way the frag plug looks, but a also don’t want to kill my mushroom.

I’m just wondering, but would I six line wrasse eat flatworms? -
80-81 isn't a buggy if its consistent. Its large swings that's a concern. Lids on tanks usually cause the heat issue. If there is any feeding doors etc that can be opened, that will help

Thanks everyone, it was indeed weather mode!

Thank you! So far the masked gobies have not seemed inclined to jump. Their instinct is to hide underneath of something when faced with danger, and in fact they rarely venture up into the water column at all except when the pumps are off at feeding time.

Emerald crab maybe, there are a lot of inverts that eat hair algae. Just search up inverts that eat hair algae.
-
Well if it’s really bad, you could get a pincushion urchin. How big is your tank? My pincushion destroys hair algae.
-
What is the best critter for hair algae removal? Kinda want to nip it in the bud before it gets too bad
-
Damsels are really pretty fish, it's a shame they can get so mean. I hope he does well too, he eats like a pig.

Tips for Preventing Freezer Burned Reef Food
Beer posted a topic in General Discussion,
I feed a few different frozen foods and it takes a while to go through them, even with my heavy feedings. I keep everything sealed up and try to get all of the air out of the bags for the flat packed stuff, but I am still seeing quite a bit of freezer burn, even with the blister pack cubed foods. I think a lot of it has to do with the defrost cycle and the constant thaw/freeze cycles. The food seemed to last longer when I had a bunch of bottles of water in the freezer to minimize cycling.
What does everybody do to minimize freezer burn with their frozen foods?-
