Cool, thank you. Will check into that. Oh ya, nitrates are under 5 ppm.

It is only 2 years old I do have "pure" water that it came with. It is calibrated maybe off by 0.01 if that. Thank you for the help so far!

Sybon Refractometer is what I use....

I know and that is what I don't get, I have Vertex Illumina LED lights and they are at about 40% when they are fully lit, maybe I should up the lighting a bit. There is no real algae outbreaks in the tank either. PH is 8.4, salinity 1.024, phosphate 0.10, will get back with nitrate levels in a...

How long does it take for them to get "really big". I have a special habit of not being able to grow stuff. Two smaller frog spawns gone, colour washing out of acans and ricordeas, I even have trouble with finger leather(died). Any way back to the original question about how long little fish...

So hand feed (mysis) or do they just filter feed from the water...

I would like to identify the new mushrooms I picked up, hopefully the pictures will work...

Bristle worms are usually red are they not, this guy is dark brown on top and beige underneath....

Best guess stormy squared, looks like a small leather coral to me... nice catch!!

Been there, when I first started my tank. Posted on here before it got really bad, fortunately I was able to get a 6 line wrasse, did not feed him much and he went at them, within a week they had all disappeared. Holy crap that is a lot of flatworms!!! :death: to flatworms!

I was glad to get him out and safely, he is quite happy to be back in the display area instead of prison.....

Had to get my six line out of the back of the tank. Last resort to get him out, fishing.... Barbless hook, very small, about 1/4" long, needed to save him.... Tropical Fishing at Home - YouTube

What fish do you have in your tank right now? 6 line will eat them but you have to make it so it is the only food available, lazy if he can get a free meal ticket. Worked for me, cleaned them all up, no food for ohhh 3 days and he got hungry.

Copepod 60x I tried....
