Are the Conbred's Cherry Sour from the States?

Hey guys, I have been dosing Aquaforest Components 123 to raise Ca, Alk and Mg. On the first 2 days of dose, there is clear consumption as alk drops, however, after 2 days, the alk raised from 9 to 12. I assume there is no consumption. Any ideas guys?

@SubzeroLT I use the Corallife Turbotwist x3 9 watts. I keep it on 24 hours and change every 6 months. @he Understand that. I usually change every 3 to 4 weeks. 1 to 2 weeks if i feed heavily. And i change everything.

@Jeebusai My front shot. Although i like it from the top better.

@Mahesh Aquaforest Media allows a stacking method. Although i am not sure if their reactor and phosban reactors work similarly, I just stacked them anyway. I do see clearer water and lower nutrients.

I am no expert in marine aquariums but I think I want to share some thoughts about an algae turf scrubber. I really do not know what defines a good algae turf scrubber (ATS) so if someone could reply me in this post, it will be good. So the thoughts go like this. Suppose an ATS is supposed to help a reefer curb the growth of algae in the main tank by outcompeting, that means that we just require the algae to growth on the turf of the ATS. Meaning that, the "best" ATS will have the fastest growth of algae in the ATS, so that algae will not grow else where within the system. Hence, the determinant will really lie upon the growth of algae and the species of algae (for which, we do not have control of). Algae requires two factors for growth, light, water and nutrients. Hence, the three things that will affect the effectiveness of the ATS would be: one, the type of light used; two, the flow of the water down the turf; and three, the amount of nutrients in the tank. Of course there are other factors to consider with regards to any product, the functionality and quality of the product but from what it seems from this post, it is a product of quality and at the same time very functional in terms of the fitting into the tank. So my point is that, the type of algae that grows in the tank determines the effectiveness of the ATS. So if the design of the ATSs are largely the same, then this ATS would be of consideration as quality and functionality meets the requirement of Lenny.

Use Polyplab medic. it helps Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Oh i see. So technically, adding oxygen to the tank won't help at all but promote algae growth ah? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

What about zoa growth? Will propagate faster? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hey guys, I am just wondering if I were to airpump my system combined with skimmer, will I get better looking zoas or will catastrophe happen? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Any one has any experience with AF Coral Food & Ricco Food?

I agree with patrick. I had velvet, ice and white spot in my tank and after 2 week dosing livestocks are fine after that. So now after every livestock I add, I do a 10 day dosing.

Can get 1 and slowly add. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Erm. I was able to hit 0ppm for TDS without carbon. but usually the recommended one is with carbon. 3 chambers, carbon resin2 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Deaquatic got a bottle when I went yesterday.

I think I have seen shrimp or crab traps where its a one way in, and the shrimp gets stuck. https://goo.gl/images/igzybR Think is something like that. Can consider.

I think Apump is good. Small and compact. 45 bucks for 200l. 30 bucks for 100l.

I think better not. Yellow tang need more swimming space. I think for your tank, 1 tang is enough.

You may want to reconisder your budget if you're going for LED. Think AI Hydra 52HD is at 8 plus already. My 2 feet runs the 24/28HD but i still feel that 52 would be better but a bit overkill. So... my 2 cents worth.
