@00W any ideas on how to make the uncycled tubs more like home ?
Lights are good I know you said you had one so good.
Flow, coral rubble.
If you can spare a rock or two that should take care of any bacterial issues.
Coral can't put off that much ammonia I can't imagine
Mostly I'd say your tank water but, honestly, they're happy they're not where they were.
Heater if necessary.
Just try to get the water as "soft " as possible, for lack of a better term.
Sometimes if you have a little hob it'll build up bacteria fast and provide just the right flow.
Your care is what they need the most. 😊
 
The remora is here! Huge skimmer. I've got a maxi 1200 for it so it doesn't over skim the tank and overflow it etc.
Pictures Camden.
Need pictures bro. 🤩:p

one has my crab tank heater (50w) the other has my salt bin heater (100w) I have one rock I can spare and already added the bio spheres I had in my sump (only a few). will use the DT water on my next water change Wednesday for a water change for them. the worst of the worst is in one of the tubs, maybe some will survive.
 
New update from fungi. He's now offering a massive media reactor that is pro/industrial? Free+shipping. Do I take it can I even use it?
 
You can use it.
Will hook up somewhere outside your tank and return to the tank.
All you need is media and a pump.
It's pretty big.
Real question is do you need it?

Exactly what I'm saying. Do I really need it.. what media could I use? Purigen zealite kalkwasser?
 
wow @ShakeyGizzard thats sounds awful. how sad... that would have shaken me up to go to a friends house that was in that condition!
I didn't know them personally, I know his dad, and he was very embarrassed to take me there but he said the tank always looked awesome
