Gex Posted May 1, 2010 Lol, simple research and start up with the best of what you can learned from this forums. Quick overview purigen refugium with cheato chemi pure elite 1inch or so of live sand carib sea I think, some awesome porous live rock with lots of coraline and lots of live 10 pounds of it and many other little things but I think these are the basic players. By the way I'm using bionic 2part and purple up and I can definetly see the coraline spreading very slowly but it's definetly going and this is a two week old tank Quote Link to comment
nanoreef-R Posted May 2, 2010 So basically, your measuring your tank's "cycleness" by the amount of purple and live it has? Quote Link to comment
nanoreef-R Posted May 3, 2010 Thanks Genius, that's how you normally cycle. And it lasts 3 weeks. What I'm wondering is how you are able to completely stock your reef in 1 week and have it last. Quote Link to comment
kthehun89 Posted May 4, 2010 so you think you are the first one to try this, please, a true cycle take months. you're def. gonna have some algae issues i tell you what Quote Link to comment
Gex Posted May 4, 2010 In my personal case it worked. I,ll be waiting for the algae bloom but so far going into my fourth week and no signs of a problem since day one. Quote Link to comment
wachopr Posted May 4, 2010 Tell me about it kthehun89,11 weeks running and my Nitrates are not at cero.I got steady parameters but It'll take a while for my tank to mature. Quote Link to comment
Gex Posted May 10, 2010 Still no algae Problem other than good coraline growth and everything looks better everyday Quote Link to comment
