Since going bare bottom (best thing ever) I swore I would never go back to sand.
But after about 2 months my Alk consumption has more than doubled to nearly 1dkh per day due to the amount of Coralline now growing on the bottom (6'x3' is a lot of surface area for a lot of hungry Coralline) and frankly it looks terrible
I'm using Red Sea foundation B for Alk which is an expensive way of doing it, time to look at bulk options.
Anyone else having any unexpected side effects by changing to bare bottom?
don't mind 'ol nosey in the photo, your looking at the tank bottom
