I'm starting to see visible spots of green algae and something that looks like diatoms on my highest rockwork (closest to light, kessil A360x still in acclimation mode around 25% peak intensity currently and set to ramp up over the next 3 weeks). I introduced copepods early on, dosed neonitro and neophos to bring levels up (nitrates 10, phosphates between 0.03 and 0.1 based on salifert) which have been completely stable at those levels, and dose phyto daily (to feed the pods, although I can't see any yet). I'm thinking it may be time to introduce some snails but I have no idea what kind of numbers. Since I don't have fish to feed my guess is I don't need any dedicated detritovores, so I was thinking of adding ~10 dwarf Cerith, ~10 dwarf Trochus snails and maybe a pair of astrea snails or nerites (this is in a 25 gallon cube). Does that seem like a reasonable number to start with? I don't get visible growth on the acrylic yet, but I imagine that will change as the light levels continue to increase.
