No Way!!! I just chucked loads in at the weekend hoping it would take!! Do you have an idea of what the black dots on the sand bed is? ThanksLooks like copepods. Good critters that eat detritus/microalgae and provide a live food source for many fish.
do you use any charcoal? could be bits of that.No Way!!! I just chucked loads in at the weekend hoping it would take!! Do you have an idea of what the black dots on the sand bed is? Thanks
No, it looks like it but I haven't put any in the tank.do you use any charcoal? could be bits of that.
I used rock from a previous tank, but not purchased live rock. Used live sand though.I would also agree with others as copepods, really hard to tell from pics/videos.
I just assume this as it a new setup, did you use live rock/ sand or both, are they transparent/white, do they look like mini Shrimp or alien like lol, what fish/snails/ crabs/corals have you added
Maybe some died from what you added and possibly just skin/ carcuss /malts just floating around until it finds your filters (just guessing)No Way!!! I just chucked loads in at the weekend hoping it would take!! Do you have an idea of what the black dots on the sand bed is? Thanks
Maybe, thanks that does make some sense, do I need to get rid or should I just leave the clean up crew to do their thingMaybe some died from what you added and possibly just skin/ carcuss /malts just floating around until it finds your filters (just guessing)
Abit of both I guess, do you add anything for your cuc to eat (additional supplements) like algae wafers or pellets, I would not solely rely on algae growth to support cuc, hair algae grows so fast to a point where nothing/ no cuc will eat itMaybe, thanks that does make some sense, do I need to get rid or should I just leave the clean up crew to do their thing
Hi Rick I have some hair algea that I think is too big for my emerald to eat, honestly not sure what to do?Abit of both I guess, do you add anything for your cuc to eat (additional supplements) like algae wafers or pellets, I would not solely rely on algae growth to support cuc, hair algae grows so fast to a point where nothing/ no cuc will eat it
Manually remove the algaeI have some hair algea that I think is too big for my emerald to eat, honestly not sure what to do?
No I haven't added anything extra for them to eat, what's good to use?
Crab cuisine, algae wafers or similar, even nori or seaweed on a clip, my hermit's and snails go mad for algae wafers, these only cost a couple of ££ in UK but the more variety you offer the better, you Will see which they favour more... The algae wafers are quite large so I just use half, I break it into pellet size peices or as small as possible then add during feeding.Hi Rick I have some hair algea that I think is too big for my emerald to eat, honestly not sure what to do?
