I've seen a lot of posts about removing the bio balls in the middle chamber in the Biocube and replacing with other things. Could someone explain to me the purpose of the bio balls and if I should or shouldn't replace with something else? In simplest explanation possible please b/c I'm brand new to all this! lol. A step-by-step instruction would be greatly appreciated. With exactly what I may need to get and how to manage it.
(A little more info on the tank: 13 lbs of live rock, 25 lbs live sand, 2 clown fish, 1 watchman goby, 2 nassarius snails, 5 astrea snails, 1 sand sifting starfish, 1 fire shrimp, green star polyp, kenya tree coral, and a couple tiny hermit crabs. The tank has been up for about a month, I've been checking parameters every 2-3 days and everything is good. I have tons of copepods that keep blooming on my glass.)
