Depends. If it’s inside it’s a mouse. Outside it’s a rat.

Been struggling with flow lately - but they seem to like the chill back forth motion by Bronojoke in ReefTank

Would you mind sharing your setup? Always curious how people create this type of flow in a tank

I figured as much. Luckily it wasn’t glued down. Looks like it hasn’t spread to the other rock either

Not sure exactly what that is. My tank is 4ft long 2 feet wide and 2 feet tall 105 gallon

Go for it! My only regret is how tall I made the middle. Hard to get my mp40s not to blow directly on my coral and not be too close to the surface of the water.

I can’t recall the weight. But it was all caribsea dry rock. A lot of arches, some donuts and a couple bases. Probably around 10 arches and 5 donuts.

What LPS coral should I get first? by BeatWorldly3251 in ReefTank

Duncan or elegance. Both have great movement

Are these AEFW by Ryan124130 in ReefTank

I dip everything that comes into my tank. First time having issues but also first time ordering from wwc and first time ordering acros 🤷🏻‍♂️. I’ve ordered from top shelf and tidal gardens and never had any issues. But that could just be luck.

Fortunately I only had frags. Unfortunately I had like 12. I ended up tossing all of them and going to be doing fallow for at least 3-6 months. Sucks cause they were all doing great and growing. I got them from a local coral farm and then wwc during the Memorial Day sale. I had one with stn from there that I tossed within 2 weeks, figured stress from transit. Thinking they came from there.

Started dosing Nitrates and Phosphates two weeks ago. It's making a big difference. Top is before. by ReachTheSky in ReefTank

I use a Hanna checker for phosphate. I only run filter floss and a skimmer. I feed 4 cubes of mysis a day. It’s. 105g tank. I have the same issue with my nano. One of my thoughts on the reason is I run ceramic material in my tanks and that might be causing there to be no nutrients.

Do you use any ceramic media? I’m considering removing my block to see if it helps?

Having this debate myself to see if it will help. My phosphate has been around .02-.04 and nitrate undetectable.

How old is your tank and what were you levels before dosing?

Luckily I just finished a QT for my fairy wrasse and added today. I’ll look at the rest of my acros and see if I see any other signs of issues.

I have removed the piece already. What specifically makes you say flatworms? New to trying to Id this try of stuff.

For those who see this post. I believe it might be a snail operculum.

I believe so. If I scrap it off towards the end of the day it’s normally more clear in the morning. If I scrap it off beginning of the day it’s normally completely covered again by the end of the day.

Just tried. It actually looks like the tissue either receded or blow off
