I didn't see any at all. I have bubble algae that is probably going to get out of control before too long, in my tank . It's always something. I don't believe anyone has a perfect tank. I've learned to live with the imperfections now...kinda . I hear you on the fraggable. Link to comment
jball1125 Posted June 5, 2014 Author Share Posted June 5, 2014 This little tank has been through its share of weird algae issues. Luckily I have been able to beat them all, unfortunately only to find a new algae problem. You can't see it in the pics too well but the latest is brown hair algae everywhere. The worst part is I can't keep snails alive for some reason. I sound like I'm ranting huh. Lol...... I really can't complain too much, all I do are weekly water changes and feed the clowns pebbles.

Nano sapiens Posted June 7, 2014 Share Posted June 7, 2014 'If' you have dinoflagellates, some species are toxic. Do the strings have air bubbles inside? Do they have the consistency of nasal mucus? Link to comment
gena Posted June 7, 2014 Share Posted June 7, 2014 Nice view and gorgeous eyes . I hope it's not dinos!!!!!! Link to comment
jball1125 Posted June 7, 2014 Author Share Posted June 7, 2014 It is mucus like but no air bubbles. 'If' you have dinoflagellates, some species are toxic. Do the strings have air bubbles inside? Do they have the consistency of nasal mucus?Me too Gena, me too. Here is a quick one of the torch. Should look sweet once settled in.http://s918.photobucket.com/user/jball1125/media/Mobile%20Uploads/2014-06-07192335_zps12474c2f.jpg.html'> Link to comment

jball1125 Posted June 8, 2014 Author Share Posted June 8, 2014 Thanks Gena!, Those blastos treat me very well. They grow fairly quick despite me not feeding them Moved my macros to the top right corner to accomadate some space for the new torch. I need to trim soon. Also took a pic of the SPS corner from above http://s918.photobucket.com/user/jball1125/media/Mobile%20Uploads/2014-06-08145818_zps4bdaf99e.jpg.html'> Link to comment
jball1125 Posted June 9, 2014 Author Share Posted June 9, 2014 Just dropping this here for my own records. AKA bad memory. Added a dozen turbos 6/9/14. We will see how long they last. Link to comment
jball1125 Posted June 9, 2014 Author Share Posted June 9, 2014 Wow I was about to say that this piece hadn't grown at all and then I started looking at old tank pics. Link to comment
jball1125 Posted June 9, 2014 Author Share Posted June 9, 2014 Been thinking of going bare bottom, any tips? I'm thinking I'll just siphon out a bit with each WC but interested if anyone has any different ideas. Link to comment
kirbaay Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 I like the rock scape on this tank! a lot of corals for such a small area hopefully they dont grow to fast! Link to comment

jball1125 Posted June 9, 2014 Author Share Posted June 9, 2014 I like the rock scape on this tank! a lot of corals for such a small area hopefully they dont grow to fast!I don't seem to have a problem with fast growing corals. Why are you thinking of a bare bottom tank?I don't like the dirty patchy sand look I'm getting now. Also seems that all my sand has slowly moved towards the back, leaving a thin layer in the front and a big mound behind my rockscape. Link to comment
jball1125 Posted June 9, 2014 Author Share Posted June 9, 2014 Looks like Im going to have to give the new torch some more space. Opened up much bigger than it was at the LFS http://s918.photobucket.com/user/jball1125/media/Mobile%20Uploads/2014-06-09154408_zps7ab708c1.jpg.html'> Going to have to trim that dragons breath today or tomorrow. Its running into the sps and they dont like it. Jedi you can see here what I mean about the patchy sand. Link to comment
