Re: Biffy Finally Gets a Build Thread!

I have 5 green chromis, they school. I'm not going to get any more than that, I think 5 is a good number for them. I have 300 lbs of sand.

I don't think I was able to quite steal my thread back with the blurry/cloudy pictures. Just wait until the dust settles and I get my ChemiPure running! Then I'll be able to take it back.

Re: Biffy Finally Gets a Build Thread!

Damn Biff,your a moderator now....get that algae under control!(yes,I'm being ghetto!)

I do love your aquascaping over mine though,I really suck at that.You mention something about those red things.I keep thinking they are hydroids,yay or nay?

Chemipure suppose to remove dissolved organic matter that feeds the algae.I hear it suppose to make the water crystal clear.I may have to try some myself.

Re: Biffy Finally Gets a Build Thread!

That algae is getting MUCH better, thank you! It's all leftover from my last tank, and it's been dying off in hoards. Thank god.

ChemiPure is kinda like carbon. But better.

Those red things are not hydroids... They are SOME sort of polyp, they actually look a lot like the polyps that are symbiotic with sponges, but a different color. And without the sponge. My LFS guy picked them up scuba diving off the coast of Mexico (he has a license to bring stuff back) and had no idea what they were. I bought that rock for $10, didn't know what kind of lighting or feeding or anything they needed (neither did my LFS, it was kind of an experiment), but they have multiplied and done really well in my tank. They sure are pretty. I'll get a better picture later.
