Chemipure Blue won’t reduce phosphate, you’ll need Elite, which has GFO added, to do that.Hi all, since beginning I have an issue with phosphate way too high between 0.5 to 1. The only way to reduce is something like chemi pure blue? I am doing 10% weekly water change and don't seem to have too much food waste. Also it seems magnesium depletes fast (1100 to 1200). It could be Coraline as I can see quite a bit on pink glow on rock? Or salt problem? Rest is ok temperature 77, alkalinity 8.45, ph 8.2, salinity 35, nitrate 10 and calcium 410. I dose also all for reef 15ml for 55gallon per day.
Wow, very nice, coiors are popping!Hey guys just wanted to share this tank shot (taken with orange lens) from about a month ago (10 month old IM Nuvo) with hydras , UV , Skimmer , Carbon , trace dosing + AFR (colors all started coming together (except a few new drags coloring up)
There have been some recent additions since this photo was taken , mostly a new stick , and some more collector gonis
Nice to meet you all
Supporter is open year round a d you can sign up for 1 year at $30 or 2 years at $50. Partner is more expensive at $150 a year or something like that? Partner gets you entered into the Partner drive giveaways and has some other perks, plus the swag. Supporter is almost as much perks as Partner but no Partner drive. Giveaways for Supporters are almost monthly with a LiveAquaria gift card and an Octoaquatics SHU Acclimation Box each giveaway with an occasional "extra" prize thrown in for good measure.What is partner? I can find supporter but nothing on partner.
Wow they are stunning!!!Hey guys just wanted to share this tank shot (taken with orange lens) from about a month ago (10 month old IM Nuvo) with hydras , UV , Skimmer , Carbon , trace dosing + AFR (colors all started coming together (except a few new drags coloring up)

I love peeps and will have to look for these as well as any other flavors!No way!!! I love peeps already had some pre, pre, Easter ones this week. But I’ve only ever seen original flavor.
Silly California probably only sells Matcha flavor. So what flavors are you all getting and does it really taste like Dr Pepper?!?
Ohh, I never thought of that! Gonna try it,Lots of freaky flavors down South. Btw, we frequently open them and let them dry out for a few hours until they get a little dry on the outside. Most people here call them crunchy peeps.
I use chemi-pure blue; but my phosphate has been ok. Other than my matroller, it’s the only thing extra. I change it out every 30 days. Also, I have a UV sterilizer but no skimmer,Chemipure elite will drop it more, but might strip it too much.
Thanks Tim! My explanation to Remi was rather inadequate- was way past my bedtimeSupporter is open year round a d you can sign up for 1 year at $30 or 2 years at $50.

I have a Strawberry Conch, but I think I like the looks of a Fighter better.What snail/other do you recommend that will consume diatoms on my sand bed? I've got nassarius snails that churn the sand bed some but they don't actually eat the algae.
Been leaning towards trying a conch but don't know whether fighting or tiger is better.
I've thought about a diamond goby before but worry that there wouldn't be enough detritus to sustain him.
Also considered an urchin but am hesitant as I have nothing secured in my tank and feel like it would just knock stuff over constantly.
Yummy!Best
Wednesday
Ever!

I have trochus snails / they can upright themselves and are great cleaners. And hermit crabs and Nasarius. I also have two tuxedo urchins that lawnmower through the tank eating algae! I did, however, buy very little ones since most of my corals are small frags. If they do get ahold of something, I just gently lift off with tweezers. Worth the effort!What snail/other do you recommend that will consume diatoms on my sand bed? I've got nassarius snails that churn the sand bed some but they don't actually eat the algae.
