I was hoping not to post here anymore although just thought of posting one more about all talking of algae.
Get a diy Algae Scrubber like me. I'm 4 months in full on tap water and only had small diatom stage only. No other algae except starting stage Coraline algae now.
I also have a thriving Goniopora colony which people here said only possible due to great water quality.(I'm on complete opposite end on this though)
So are you admitting you don’t have great water quality? The “opposite end” of great is terrible. Your words. You almost sound proud of it. What’s that like? Those individuals considering taking any rational advice from this individual consider these bits of admission on his/her part
