if the ammonia has not dropped by monday going to do a water change

 

[Dave1993]

I think if I had this much problems getting live rock I’d try my hand at making my own in a brute can with dry rock. UK sounds dreadful when it comes to available reef hobby stuff.

Since Brexit yea its terrible

This place is fire for live rock

Definitely a reason why to make your own. Wow.
If planning another tank in the future, now’s the time to start seeding dry rock I suppose.

I believe this might be counter productive. Do you have access to microbacter 7?

i think i have microbacter 7 isnt it for algae though. So i should not do a water change?

Add MB7 and monitor. MB7 has the bac you need to convert ammonia.

The Live Rock is only the half of it… I’ve always wanted an 8-10’ tank but if we did that, we’d have no couch or anything in the room.

Just remember you can’t hook a PlayStation up to your fish tank. . . food for thought. . .

 

[Dave1993]

Well tank is cycled gonna give it a few days just to make sure

They’re essentially what many would call the ‘Easy Monti’. Theyre generally just as easy as the Fymbriaphyllia species are.

Thing is i think my bacteria arrived dead bought turbo start 900 and its ment to be kept refrigerated and was obv in delivery for 24+ hours it stunk aswell smelt like rotten egg

it's supposed to smell like rotten eggs! that means the bacteria is alive!!

do you think i could keep 1 in a 1 month old tank?

It’s certainly not impossible.

 

[Dave1993]

btw don't know if tank is cycled when i put it next to 1.5ppm on the chart it looks 1.5ppm when i put it next to 0.5ppm it looks 0.5 i might just get a ammonia hanna checker and be done with it seems like such a waste for something i will probs use once

 

[Dave1993]

so just looked at the tank and i see green growing on the rocks and i think diatoms on the sand

It’s actually reusable. Once you’re comfortable that ammonia is no longer present just clean, dry n, store. It’s been well over a year since I’ve tested for ammonia. A hanna ammonia tester is something I wouldn’t invest in. $63 for a parameter rarely checked. The ammonia badge is just as good n worlds cheaper.
