GHA is green hair algae huh! Hahaha whoops! Tired. Soooo I also have a protein skimmer and I’m upgrading eventually to an fx4. My lfs recomended it cuz of the 700gph flow. I have a 50 gallon tank with a canister filter that does 100gph flow now.

Sorry I’m still a noob with saltwater but what is GHA? I’ll do a test tomorrow after work to see where my numbers are and as for water, I use the saltwater from my LFS that I trust. Sometimes I do mix in my tap water to fill 2 gallons or so when the water evaporates. Till I can get saltwater...

If I’m not mistaking, I believe that it is. I don’t remember tho. I didn’t spend a lot for him. I was told he was hardy. I had a green bubble tip before and he died on me :/ my tank was pretty fresh then tho and it was in a nano I had set up. I’ll be buying a master test kit soon or can my...

Wow you rock!! Thank you so much for all that info!

im assuming this is the right area to talk about this. Anyways, I have no idea what is going on here! Not why I can’t keep any anemone alive! This is my second attempt. My tank has been up and running for at least 6 months now. Salinity is low. 1.20. I’ve been trying to get it to 1.25 over...

That’s what I thought too from threads I have read but nope. Doesn’t clear up. Power head is running the entire time too

hey guys and gals! I herd it’s best to mix your salt in the water before you put it in your tank. I’ve just started to do this with instant ocean reef crystals. I use a water circulation powerhead to mix the salt with the water but I can never get it clear! It always looks like this in the...
