Re: reefer2b's tank

If all else fails and you want a flat side chip it off with a masons hammer, or you could use a pallpean and a chisel. I like your aquascaping though it looks good.

I like the aquascaping I'm unsure about the stuff on the donut rock.

Re: reefer2b's tank

It looks like it might be a sponge of some sort, Id ask some of the regulars though I may be wrong

Re: reefer2b's tank

Either a sponge or die off from old algae. As long as your water parameters are good and it doesn't look like it's spreading, I wouldn't worry about it.

Re: reefer2b's tank

It looks like its probably just the left overs from some die off.Your clean up critters will probably take care of it.

Re: reefer2b's tank

Thanks, it's been there since I put the rock in there and my levels haven't done anything yet so it's not a problem, just looks strange so it made me wonder.

Re: reefer2b's tank

Day 23


This pic doesn't do justice to the actual haziness of the water. If you look through it from the side it's hard to see past the first rocks. Can you tell the water has a green tinge to it? That's the way it looks.

Re: reefer2b's tank

Are you running a skimmer?
If not,I bet a good skimmer would clear that water up within a week.

Re: reefer2b's tank

No I'm not running a skimmer. I've been cleaning the filter and after seeing how it looked after a week I'm going to do it again in a few days and see how it looks. All the skimmers I've seen on you tube appear to be noisy and since this is in my bedroom I dont' want to listen to the gurgling sound.
