Going fallow starting today (specifics on my experience posted in the Quarantine tank thread... because of course, I did not QT....)
Are there any pointers I should/shouldn't be doing while fallow?
I've got some corals, snails, hermits, shrimps, and a GBTA...
- Should I feed them once in a while? (definitely feeding the GBTA. So fun watching him eat squid)
- Are WCs necessary?
- Do I need to keep my skimmer going?
- Should I raise or lower the temp (I heard raising the temp will speed up more parasite life cycles)?
- Do I need to keep my lighting schedule the same? I've got 4 T5's, 2 10k and 2 Actinic's.
(wouldn't mind saving a little on my elec bill during this time... haha)
