mediumsprite Posted December 8, 2006 Author Share Posted December 8, 2006 what are you interested in adding to your cube? coral wise My BF suggeted I stick with the collector type corals. He named a few and I researched them on nano-reef.com I would like to get PPE, RPE, OPR, some ricordias, purple fiji. Link to comment
Phixion Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 I can barely see the starfish, lol! But yeah, well once you start stocking it, I might have some RPEs I can part with. I just picked up a frag the other day in fact that's more orange than red, it's a crazy bright color! Link to comment
Asin Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 That is really rude, Fugu... yet, hilarious! Link to comment

Phixion Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 woohoo:) thanks Matt.. When I got hm I noticed that there's allot of hair algae growing. I think I will do a water change. EEK, hair algae!! Definitely do a water change, 50% if you can and get some PhosBan or PhosGuard to eliminate phosphates. Next get a phosphate test kit, and test both your tank and the water you're changing out with as well. I have bad GHA in my tank too. Link to comment
directional Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 I wouldnt panic yet its part of a natural cycle.. It happend to me for a few days and my hermits ate it and now I have no algae and I dont run any phosban or anything like that... I got a bunch more corals tonight I should have good pics up tomorrow Link to comment
