I use to make a joke about having a copepod only tank.
But apparently I have a Coralline Algae only tank.
I would love to know, why after a very long time (a year), I have all this Coralline growing now.
Even after dosing two bottles of Coralline Algae in a bottle. Nothing.
One day I bought some Copepods and Phytoplankton from Algaebarn and started dosing All-For-Reef and viola!
Coralline.
(All-for-reef at 1ml a day for a 10 gallon has not moved the dkH an iota. )
(After the Algaebarn the dKh dropped ... but that was a lot of water added .. this is unclear. I had nothing that consumed dKh except now for Coralline.)
Tank just completely changed, and everything is "thriving" in my ugly little 10 gallon.
(The focus on lights and the Seneye and the PUR and PAR ... wrong focus.)
I wish I could figure out the magic pixie dust and sell it in a bottle. It would revolutionize the hobby.
It is true, when your tank can grow Coralline, it is ready for everything else.
