Tank Shot (w/new additions)

interesting how you keep the algae gone. i think i know how.

well, not really. i don't really try to keep the algae down at all. there's a fair amount in there but that's mostly transplanted from the display tank (on the rock already). there's not much bioactivity (yet) so there's really not much nutrients to deal with.

i welcome the phytoplankton though. it's one of the keys i'm counting on and not something i'm trying to fight (i usually never do actually). i do lazyass reefing.

slime algae otoh IS something i don't like and try to address. but that was mostly due to temp issues a couple of weeks ago.

This is a natural light tank? It will be interesting to find out the growth of that clam.
