But mostly I run reef crest at different levels (low levels at night), with about five hours of nutrient transport mode every afternoon. 1 Quote Link to comment

dferrari13 Posted February 26, 2017 Author Share Posted February 26, 2017 Got 3 emerald crabs and they immediately went to work. They ate all the bad algae in the entire tank...I was very impressed....the tank looks nice and clean now....thank god...I was getting tired of clean up bubble algae 2 Quote Link to comment

teenyreef Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 I've had pretty good luck with emerald crabs cleaning up algae. There were a few spots of bubble algae in my 40g tank, and after i got the emerald I've never seen another one. The tank looks great, happy birthday to the tank! 1 Quote Link to comment

SaltyBuddha Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 Just read through your entire thread and I can only hope I get my tank looking as good as yours! All about that money though lol I initially bought the tank with a solid budget and then I wanted this and thought to get this and then upgrade to that and I haven't even gotten it wet yet. Dry rocks are still cycling... I hope you have success with some SPS one day. The only one I really want in my tank is a montipora. We probably got the same inspiration from Teenys tank! I have no experience in the matter, but if it kept getting algae issues, did you think of putting it in a section of more flow? It would grow denser and have more levels, but maybe it would do better? Keep it up. The tank is looking great and maybe I will be able to compete with you in a year or two ☺ 1 Quote Link to comment
dferrari13 Posted March 23, 2017 Author Share Posted March 23, 2017 Thanks for the great compliments! Algae of any kind is gone after the emerald crabs...they worked great..I will be trying to add a monti soon....and maybe an upgrade soon to come...just bought a house! 1 Quote Link to comment
teenyreef Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 Looking good! I love the feather duster in the middle, I bet it makes a really nice focal point for the tank with a lot of movement. Congrats on the house! When do you move in? 1 Quote Link to comment

dferrari13 Posted May 21, 2017 Author Share Posted May 21, 2017 Hey guys...im moving about 10 minutes away and I'm combining my pico 5.5 gallon with my 10 gallon. Packing all my favorite coral into my 10 gallon for a month or so until I move everything over.....trying to go slow...lets see how it turns out Quote Link to comment
