For many of us, we might be struggling with some in regards to our tank; maybe it is algae issues, fish disease, or simply trying to cycle our brand new tank. I want to know what you are struggling with right now in regard to your tank and how maybe some of us as a community can help you with your struggles!
 
My only struggle at the moment, is not being able to keep acros. They all start out great! Some even take off and start growing. But then…BAM! The RTN hits.
 
Green cyano..ugh!
I'm dealing with a rock and a hard place with that stuff. Clearly there's an imbalance in the bacteria population that has allowed the cyano to spread. My nutrients are low (NO3: 11.6 and PO4: 0) and even though my phos is reading 0 I know it's not bottomed out since the cyano and corals are growing. But feed more and use Reefeoids to up phos and cyano grows more too!
I'd rather not go the Chemiclean route just yet, considering doing the coral snow and MB7 thing :thinking-face:

This is why I haven’t even tried acros in my tank haha,
 
Currently, I can’t seem to mine bitcoin in the frag tank. I’ve heard that there are 1.2 million coins left. I’ve been dosing vodka, doing water changes, sent in ICP tests, sang to it, etc. However, my BTC mother colony is not splitting! What am I doing wrong?
