Awesome! I love it when answers present themselves.The depletion of iron in your tank to a miniscule level is likely what has caused the chaeto to crash.
After a quick search here (thanks for the lead!), this seems to be a good place to start. I'll look for some Fergon tablets next time I'm out and about.
Seriously considered it, actually. ;-)Or you can just throw a hammer in the tank
I'm sure it is. It's on my "to do" list, for sure. We're thinking of buying a new house, however, so right now all non-essential purchases are on hold while we figure out what our "best case" budget could be. Makes for a boring month, but the effort is worth it.Spring for the Triton test - its worth it.
Fair enough. Though you'll have to settle for a blued-out, un-level iPhone pic; work just picked up and I don't have time to set up the full camera rig and post-processing stuff. :-(Also - tank updates dont count unless they have pictures!
