I am putting up for your consideration my Skimz ZAR127DC zeolite reactor with 2 bags of zeolite and a fresh bottle of Zeostart.
After going thru a couple of zeolite reactor before, this was the set it and forget it option (besides changing rocks every 45 days).
This reactor keeps a slow flow...
So the winter sun was hitting the side of my tank just right and I’m having an algae explosion on the glass. It’s made its way into the sump hoses. The snails, and the crabs and the pods help. But they don’t eliminate it. I have to manually scrape it off weekly. It has invaded my sump hoses now...
My tank is starting to get over run by algae, I know there’s a lot of chemicals and additives to rid algae growth but what is a very quick for sure way to rid algae from corals Skelton, between polyps??? I’m dealing with very annoying hair algae no matter what I do
I’m thinking turning off...
Hi all! I seem to be having an issue with a nuisance algae. I would like to see if there is a "natural" solution to the problem before I try to attack it with chemicals. I have a starry blenny, a blue spot sea hare, and a smorgasbord of different snails, but none of them seem to touch the stuff...
I am new at the hobby. The lfs said a refugium would be helpful soon. I saw the Clearwater today in a YouTube video. Does this do what a refugium does.
thanks
If you know about Mighty Magnets, you know they are the best. Not the cheapest, but the best. I used this to clean our 1 ¼” thick acrylic tank and it worked flawlessly. In addition to the N-6 Mighty Magnet, I’m also including the following replacement felts and pads that work great for safely...
Hello all! I have been looking for an ember blenny for while now and they are always out of stock. Does anybody know where I can find one. My lawnmower blenny suicided into my overflow and got stuck in my piping (problem fixed since then). I have been in need of a herbivore since then and...
Hi reef2reef.
after battling with ich and now having setup a hospital tank, I think it is time to get control of algae in my tank. I have a lot of diatoms and a little green algae.
here is what I have planned so far, please tell me if this is too many invertebrates, if there is something else...

Hello was wondering what people use in the biocubes to clean the front corners?
I tried to use a flipper and i scratched my tank a little bit. I went really slow and i just cant find a way to clean up the hard algae thats growing on the corners of my biocubes glass.
Hey all,
I have a relatively new 180g tank (4 months), which finished the initial cycle 4-5 weeks ago.
I’ve put a handful of fish in there and have put in a decent sized CuC in there. I noticed this past week that some type of algae has started growing on the sand. Now it’s starting to grow on...
Hi everyone,
I have a Flipper max and I am replacing the pad on the magnet. I pulled the pad off and it left a whole bunch of very very sticky adhesive. I cannot get this to come off, has anyone had any luck?
I'm sure it will probably come off with chemicals but I don't want to go that route...
