Hey all,
I received a RBTA for free so I set up a spare 40 breeder for him and two clowns that host in it. In my 120, I had a Potter’s start nipping so I figured I would put my clam in there and all LPS that were being nipped at.
Well this GHA is crazy, I can’t take it anymore. I took out all the rock today, placed it in a 10 gallon with a Powerbeats and placed a black trash bag over it. I will let the rock sit in darkness for the next week and do a water change or two on it in the mean time. I scrubbed everything I could in the 40 and removed 95% of the algae. I am worried the remaining algae with still take off in the tank.
Nitrate and phosphate are all coming up 0.
I am not using GFO or anything, just skimming wet and have chaeto in the fuge. I am thinking about dosing algaefix marine or peroxide to make sure it all dies. I am just worried for the clam and the anemone and would love some input on this.
I am open to all suggestions too!
Thanks!
Justin
