May go nab a small Kole tang today.... That and I want another Midas Blenny but I'm thinking of the kole tang

Go for it! They are not really as big of an open swimmer as some of the others tangs. Mine spends most of it's time grazing around the rocks. I think they do just fine in smaller tanks while they are around 3'' or less.

 

Midas blennies are cool too. Mine is really interesting to watch.

Got me some AcroPower, on sale, when I purchased a WP10 for my little tank. I added a cap full to the tank, nothing happened. Maybe it's broke. :)

 

So, do you use the once a week dosage, or dose more often? Once a week seems a bit small.

I'm gonna give the Acropower a try as soon as my tank is readyyyy

Same, if we can get color like Arkaygoldy with it, we'll know why, it's the secret formula, shhh! ;)

Just does the 1st ml of Acropower today. Can't hurt and it is pretty cheap compared the other AA's on the market.



What is your template for the Radion?

Does the kole tang eat bubble algae, million dollar question

I wish. I have an emerald that does a good job of it though. :)

Pretty much 14k all day and all blues for 3 hours for 9. I'll post it soon.

No, you'd need a rabbitfish. Some say that the Zebrasoma desjardini has been known to snack on bubble algae, but it's much more hit than miss, unlike the rabbitfish. I treated my bubble algae like candy for mine, I would pull some off the rock and it would eat it out of my hand.

 

I miss it :(

Coralline algae sure seems to like this Coral Compulsion refugium bulb. In two weeks it is seriously taking over the walls of the fuge compartment.

The light i have over my corals right now has four royal blue, four violet, four deep red, and two warm white - coralline has exploded in that tank, there is more in there than has ever been in the 80.

I need some refugium bulb.

Yes you do! I will be doing a writeup on the coral compulsion bulb in a few weeks once I can attest to the growth of my chaeto.

:)B) Thanks

Is it the red leds/ warm whites

It must be. I thought that coralline liked blue light, but this has be rethinking that.

 

wow awesome looking setup

Thanks a lot! :)

 

despite what i said on rc about less is more, it is a great feet of nano coral keeping!

Thanks man! I appreciate it!

Coralline looks like a pile of knobs under predominantly blue light, it takes warm colors to really bring out the look - and apparently the growth, too B)

I had a rabbit fish, wouldn't touch my bubble algae but would eat all the food for hte other fish, caused a spike in nutrients and encouraged bubble algae growth. I hated that fish.

Well, there it is. :) I didn't know.

I put my trust in emerald crabs for the bubble algae. I have found one LFS by me that carries emeralds that always eat bubble algae. If they can get to it, they eat it.

How did you input the code? I just have reef link and the web based graphic adjustment.

Did you have any trouble in the beginning with bleaching? How about with newly added frags?

Hmmmm I may steal it! But you have the new pucks in the gen 3 correct? Don't think I can use it

It should work except for the violets I would think? Not sure.

It only works for the apex.
