That's interesting about the LR being ok in hypo. Hmmm I might leave some in my QT then. Thx guys!
I wouldn't recommend green spotted puffers for this. From what I've read, it sounds like in the wild they travel from low to high salinity as they grow. So an adult needs full SW to be happy.
(Disclaimer: I could be wrong! Just happened to do some research into GSPs a while back and that was what I came away with.)

To control ph you could maybe have a dual tank system with lights on oppersite timers (so day on one = night on the other.). Might be quite a cool little setup!
-
It was my understanding that subjecting LR to the hypo needed to kill ich would also kill everything on it, thus resulting in a nutrient spike...?
I could be wrong about this and tbh I hope I am, because I'd really like to be able to keep LR in my QT.

Looks like a seahorse paradise!

Well said fjr_wertheimber!

Tsk tsk, all this iced tea nonsense you guys do over here. Tea is supposed to be hot!

Odd, TapaTalk is working fine for me (iPhone 4G)
There was a rather big update recently. Maybe that has something to do with it?

Greetings!
Tell us about your tank! What size? How long has it been setup?

Here's the guide I followed to make mine: http://www.3reef.com/forums/reef-aquarium-articles-how-tos/light-friendly-clear-mesh-screen-cover-open-top-tanks-standard-rimless-w-pictures-74334.html

Awww he's so cute!!! Wow that tank really does look awesome!
-
Wow that is one lucky dragon!! Great work!
-
Aww cute! Yum!
Do you guys do pancake day over here in the US? It's on my birthday this year... perfect!

The fact it's being so persistent and the sea hair won't touch it is making me think bryopsis too. Does 3 days of darkness have any effect?
Maybe wiping out the previous case of GHA just gave the bryopsis a foothold? Bryopsis can look v much like GHA.

Thanks so much for hosting dapettit! It was so fun meeting everyone! Like a live action forum!
-
Oooo I like this!!
-
Gah, we're running late already... Hope that's ok!!

Cool tank!! You definitely have to keep that surge action!

Jake at RCA recommended large turbos to us when we enquired about CUCs for pred tanks. I think hydro mentioned shield limpets recently too (for his tusk)

Yay look at that goby go!! Haha good find!

Here's some more info on the cleaner wrasse: http://piratefx.hubpages.com/hub/cleaner-wrasse
One of the big problems is they feed almost exclusively on the stuff they pick off other fish; so they tend to do poorly in aquariums. Never had one myself, just keep coming across threads with people saying we should avoid buying them, so I thought I'd mention it. Its a shame, it would be a cool behaviour to watch.
I believe neon gobies can perform the same function, but with their small size I doubt they'd get a chance in an aggressive tank!
-
Caribsea Pink Fiji! It's a nice white sand. Won't be as cheap as you found in HomeDepot, but at least you only have to buy sand once.
-
I've heard limpets and really large turbos can do ok in aggressive tanks. Cleaner shrimp can also be ok if the fish are smart enough to recognise the service they perform... but there's always a risk someone will forget!
Its better to stay away from buying cleaner wrasses. They have an important role to play and collecting them is apparently causing problems in wild reefs.
I'd imagine large hermit crabs could do ok as well. I remember seeing a huge one in an aggressive tank at AquaDome.

Greetings!
Are you new to SW or do you have a tank already?

I've seen Garlic Xtreme being sold in the Lakeline Petco if that helps at all.
