Thank you Lasse! Funny that I was looking to buy these seaweed chips a few days ago! Look here:


Also: As suggested, I've added a power head to my tank to increase the surface movement and keep the the debris suspended. Should I keep it running 24/7? At the moment I am doing 4 hrs on / 4 hrs off. I can't give my inverts food while the powerhead is on otherwise they would not be able to grab the food. Any strategies?

Regarding the starfish, I have a red linckia.

I have no experiences with that starfish but if it eat mussel meat - try that and the window/starfish trick

IMO it is always better to have the circulation 7/24 but you can close it down when you feed for 15 - 20 minutes. The food the circulation suspen will settle somewhere in the aquarium - and the CUC will find that place.

Hikari mini wafflers are excellent food for CUC - IMO

Sincerely Lasse

Perfect. The sweet water wafer are suitable also for marine ?

Besides that, I just clean the tank, put on the head pump indefinitely.

This is a picture for you :-D
