Old Town. I hadn’t been to their store since they moved out of Old Town. The retail aspect of the new store is very limited on fish, but they have a weirdly large amount of dry goods. I surely overpaid, but convenience matters too.Which store did you buy fish from? Heard Tank it easy does qt now.
I don’t use chaeto right now, but I’ll likely get some. I’ve always run biopellets in the past to keep nitrates down, and even then it was tough. I’m going to try to avoid that going forward. Hoping the bigger skimmer almond with chaeto keeps things in check. Plus, I got rid of my eel, which should help.You run cheato ? I remember you had some nutrition issues before.
It’s a TMC Vecton V2 25 wattLookin' good sawdonkey! How big of a UV is that?
Not much to report. I’m getting a pretty bad diatom bloom right now. I’m not sure if it’s due to my di resin being spent in both canisters (whoops), my high phosphate and low nitrate, or from the silicates in the new substrate I added….or all of the above? I ran chemiclean last week because I just couldn’t get cyano to go away.
I haven’t had a cleanup crew for ages because my old pinkface wrasse picked everyone off except a Mexican turbo. Today I added 50 crabs and about 300 snails (200 of which are mini ceriths).
I’m getting a few new fish next weekend and hope to start trading some torches for acros to fill the scape out. Some acros are still looking good….
No, I’ve not, but I’ll read up on it. My diatom issue has mostly subsided.Have you ever dosed Bakers Yeast before? I am going to start dosing it to my system and one of the things I have read is it is very good at eliminating Diatoms.
Hard to tell how much it’s improved, but it really produces the black sludge. My nitrate has still crept up to 18 and my PO4 is at .23. I’m trying to get both down. I put on some fresh GFO last night and my chaeto ball is getting pretty sizable. Hoping this helps.Looking good! How’s the ski,mer extension doing. Can you tell a difference.
