keeping a tank from getting HLLE is fairly easy. just dont have any stray voltage in the tank. plenty of greens. I swear by Ocean Nutrition Formula 2 flakes. always had great color and zero HLLE out of my tangs with it. also, nori at least every other day. toss in some meaty fares every so often and you will have nice fat healthy tangs.

Also some new studies have shown that some dusty Activated Carbon can cause HLLE too over time. I think lignite was the main culprit.

Nice Score Kevan....

Yeah. I wonder how it would go putting the yellow in last? Will have to give it more consideration I guess.
