Yes as they are considered essential since they feed your pets. I didn’t go into the actual TSA store though, even though you can. I called and asked if they had one and if it was eating. They said yes so I paid over the phone and when I got to the store I called and they walked it to the car.LFS's are still open in Orlando?
Yes I normally qt but I only care about velvet, which has a much shorter qt time. This time though I took the gamble as I’m so over this algae. TSA has the fish in copper at a 2.5 level for almost the time I would qt. I know this basically means nothing but again I’m just so over this algae I want to see progress. It may end up being a huge mistake but I took the risk.Do you QT? I'm just wondering if I have to wait a month before I can see this fish chow down
Definitely keep us updated! Everyone is making me want to get a rabbitfish as well. I know Biota has some captive bred ones that I've had my eye on.I picked up a magnificent today so fingers crossed. With the rocks scrubbed down so the algae is short I’m Hopeful.
Rodi is 0 tds and I change out my filters before it even gets to 1 tds.Bubba how’s your ro water? When’s the last time you sent in an ATI test? I’m thinking if the tank is clean of detritus buildup this could be a possible problem. I had an ro issue only discovered from a water test. Good luck.
I have also battled this indestructible turf algae. It flared up when I upgraded my tank. It was growing on the new rock I had put in and nothing would touch it. rabbit fish, tangs, urchins, hermits, seaslugs and every type of snail under the sun. After a year of this loosing battle I finally gave in and used flux rx. I saw you had a bad experience with it bubba and so did I lol. My SPS hated it and I lost around 6 of my smaller new acros. But it killed everything that was green in my system. One thing I did notice though was the day after the first dose everything started eating the algae. It made it palatable to them and they had a feast. If I had to do it over again I would do a quarter dose just to see if it would weaken the algae enough to be eaten. Just sharing my experience with the green devil. Good Luck!
I am bare bottom so the urchins prefer staying on the bottom and on the back glass. Don’t get me wrong some are on the rocks but not quit making the dent as I hoped.Sorry to see the algae.
I’m suprised that the urchins aren’t at least putting a dent in it. I had three rock boring urchins in my last tank and never saw a speck of algae.
I know everyone has an opinion...personally I would think Mexican snails would be the best at this job. IME they either die rite away or mow down everything.
