Bobalouy Posted April 18, 2005 Share Posted April 18, 2005 Im not expert but how about some more Live rock? Link to comment
lou52onu Posted April 18, 2005 Author Share Posted April 18, 2005 yeah I know Im a little skimpy on the LR. I plan on getting some more I just haven't seen any good pieces in the LFS recently. I just wanted to make sure I was ok w/ my verts and inverts. Link to comment
Web Guy Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 I just ordered 13lbs for $2.25 a pound from Ebay. I will let you know what I think about it when it gets here Friday. For the price I paid for it I am planning on breaking up some to put in the middle compartment in the back as filtration and use the rest as stack rock for the nicer peices later. They had great feeback and easy communication so let's hope for the best. Link to comment
Nickeleye Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 Not sure if I'd use the turbo. Those things make water DIRTY. My two cents. Link to comment
skilter Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 the turbos are good if you have alota algae, personaly i love my turbos, as for the LR i would deffinitly get more... but your bioload looks ok. as long as you are doing sufficient water changes on a regular basis, you should be fine.

Nickeleye Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 Oh, I'm not disagreeing that turbos do a good job. They just do it at the cost of a lot of waste production. Link to comment
lou52onu Posted April 21, 2005 Author Share Posted April 21, 2005 thanks for the info guys on top of the added/needed LR what would you recommend for the clean up crew...if the turbos are iffy...what else could I get? I'd like something to clean the detitus (brown stuff) from the sandbed. Any suggestions? Link to comment
BKtomodachi Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 Return the flame scallop while you still can..... Link to comment
lou52onu Posted April 21, 2005 Author Share Posted April 21, 2005 Uhh BKTom- do I get explaination why I should do that?..... Link to comment
p.o.t.u.s Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 I think what BK was getting at was the fact that flame scallops are hard to feed...they need lots of food in the water column to survive. Lots of food=nitrates. Nitrates=not happy nano. Link to comment
