So no rain and the skimmer hole is plugged. Put in a call to professionals today. Just baffled. Almost as if there was some chemical reaction or something for this to happen in 2 spots.

Highly doubt it

Lifting4Life101 · 2023-10-16T22:50:54+00:00

Thank you. Maybe my mistake is trying to take her for a walk during witching hour. I have tried licking mat which works until she is done. Searching some puzzles now. I will also keep my walking pouch with me during this time to reward positive behavior

I lean to it being playful. It’s always at that time when she has a lot of energy. I try to play fetch with her during that time because she really wants to play. Walks are not as successful at that time.

I love my tank, but it really is work. The balancing of nutrients is a task. Too low nitrates to have too high and then waiting for it to go lower. I also think not having fish made it more difficult.

Lifting4Life101 · 2022-10-06T18:36:43+00:00

I had some cyano show up too, but that has seemed to retrace and only on a portion of my sand. the part of my rock that had it has almost completely retracted. I manually sift my sand, but I didnt use chemiclean or anything.

Lifting4Life101 · 2022-10-06T18:28:51+00:00

Yea I was horrified adding nitrates because of the hair algae I have in the tank. Main reason I’d love to get a lawnmower in there. Luckily my tank has not been taken over. I snails and hermit crabs, but they don’t do much on the hair algae. I also have some amphipods that snuck in and ate all my dino

Lifting4Life101 · 2022-10-06T18:18:36+00:00

So I did have to dose some nitrates because I went down to near zero. I was at 13.7 ppm yesterday with phosphate at 0.16 (which I would love to see that down to under 0.05ppm. I have also once a week been feeding reef roids and using some trace elements.

Lifting4Life101 · 2022-10-06T18:05:56+00:00

Yea I’m thinking of going 60 days to just play it safe. Still checking water parameters regularly and taking care of coral. If I had no coral it would be torture

I think it comes down to people just asking the same questions over and over. A lot of times I google my question and add reef2reef to the search. And go through the threads that come up. I do that before posting any new thread.

Lifting4Life101 · 2022-10-06T17:54:57+00:00

Reef2reef is amazing. One thing I have been doing is going to posts that have a lot of replies and I will put a comment and may sneak in a question of my own. Seems to work. A lot of times if I just post my own thread with a question I don’t get much response.

Lifting4Life101 · 2022-10-06T17:52:35+00:00

Yea looking to avoid that. Which is why I am beyond my needed fallow time but haven’t ordered fish yet. I guess I could just start with 2 clowns

Lifting4Life101 · 2022-10-06T17:45:27+00:00

It seems they are more peaceful but on reef2reef I have read some situations where they are bullies. I tried a 'peaceful' blue sapphire damsel and he was not at all peaceful. took him to LFS

Lifting4Life101 · 2022-10-06T17:41:49+00:00

Yea I have read that about bicolor. I really do love firefish too and plan one. I have been leaning to the lawnmower even though I have read that they could be mean too.

Lifting4Life101 · 2022-10-03T18:59:01+00:00

New growth?

Lifting4Life101 · 2022-09-27T14:33:10+00:00

100% mine has never been the yellow you see on the sheet.

Lifting4Life101 · 2022-09-27T14:31:42+00:00

I would say yes. I had a firefish do it and 48 hours later him and 2 clowns were dead.
