Unfortunately I ran into a problem.. one night will looking at my sps with a flashlight, I noticed my Montipora were covered in little 'bugs'! Kind of like red bugs, but they were black. The odd thing was that I haven't added any SPS in a long time, and I rigorously dip my coral. So how did they manage to slip by? Initially I thought of dosing my tank with interceptor, but It's difficult to find here in Canada. Not only that, but it kills off a lot of beneficial things in the tank as well. The only thing that changed was that I lost my old sixline wrasse a while back when he jumped. My theory is that he was keeping the bugs under control by predating them. So I picked up another sixline, and sure enough it started eating them. I still ended up removing the infected Montipora so I could dip them. I've decided to just leave some of the spots empty, as with time my coral will need the space. This occurred a while back, and since then I have yet to see any bugs on the few Montipora I have, as well as my Acropora. Aside from that I moved my clownfish over to a small mangrove tank I have running. I also removed the Nero 5 from the tank (now using it in the mangrove tank), and added a second mp10. Overall the growth has been great, for my future SPS tank I plan on quarantining all of my SPS so I don't have to deal with this again...
Thank youTank looks sharp!
I use the balls!Thank you
Josh , what type of marine pure do you use balls or block ones ?
I'm using a hydra 26 and a prime HD to light this tank. The PAR is more than enough, and the spread is good. A 32 would work, and i'm sure you'd get decent spread with it. Really just depends on the coral you plan on keeping.Hi There! Im looking to start a 20G cube and was looking at getting the AI Hydra 32 and an AI Nero 3 to sync up with each other. Are you happy with the par and spread from this fixture?
thanks!looks good!
Yeah it grows super fast!That purple one is growing quick!
Yep, I've been far more active on nano-reef.com. Here's my build thread there! https://www.nano-reef.com/forums/topic/417211-joshs-nuvo-20/?do=findComment&comment=6023672Awesome build on this! Is this system still running?
