How long has the tank been set up for?
A little over 2 years. Here’s another pic.How long has the tank been set up for?
And can you post a photo under 100 white light or is that it? I’d say yes. Is it purple or pink colored?A little over 2 years. Here’s another pic.

Thanks. Now just noticed I have vermetid snails. Any experience with these? Bumblebee snails?in pic is coraline
Yes and they are effective in eating them as is applying a dab of gel superglue from dollar store over the opening of each tubeThanks. Now just noticed I have vermetid snails. Any experience with these? Bumblebee snails?
Online sources say bumble bee snails sensitive to nitrate above 20 ppm. Mine ranges from 40-60 - still trying to get down. should I wait until nitrate down or go ahead and get snailsYes and they are effective in eating them as is applying a dab of gel superglue from dollar store over the opening of each tube
Thats quite high and a series of water changes will reduce this. What tes kits are you using ?Online sources say bumble bee snails sensitive to nitrate above 20 ppm. Mine ranges from 40-60 - still trying to get down. should I wait until nitrate down or go ahead and get snails
They go down but then come back up again. I'm using the API Aquaspin. I've tested Ph and phosphate in this vs. Hanna and they are the same. Maybe nitrate is off but it's always been high. I don't think I'm over feeding but maybe. Give the tank a quarter size of reef frenzy a day and some pellets in the morning. I added a fuge about a month ago and nitrates/phosphate better but still high. Fuge is only about 7 gallons so I don't expect a huge drop. I'm adding some denitrifying bacteria (PNS ProBio from Algae barn soaked in a aragonite sand/rubble for the fuge bottom. People have reported reduced nitrate/phosphate with both products. I'm also starting to dose live photo from algae barn and have added copepods to my fugeThats quite high and a series of water changes will reduce this. What tes kits are you using ?
