Anyone have experience with blue throats?
larry replied to Reefhappy's topic in Need a little help here...
I had one for a year until my DT busted. Eventually he would eat our of my hand. For the first month he was very timid. I had assumed part of it was I only had him in a 120. I really should have waited for a larger tank. -
Seachem.

I could never get an accurate phosphate level when I had my turf scrubber going.
-
I only ask because some dry rock will leach phosphates for months after its added. I ran into it with my last tank and others have as we'll.
-
Did you use dry rock when you started?
-
If you have algae growing it can be hard to get an accurate phosphate reading.

Help Getting Rid of Green Bubble Algae

Turf scrubber. I had it in mine until I built my turf scrubber, then it slowly died away. I tried crabs never saw them touch the stuff. -
It hangs above the tank from the ceiling. It's old but I'm sure I can get one of them fired up.

I have a 175 watt MH pendant you could borrow.

Scott isn't the only one there that would ask. I had to convince PA when I bought my 2 sets of clowns that I had an adequate setup to handle it. I've rarely been lead astray by any advice I've gotten there. I still do my own research to make sure, but I would do that anywhere. Honestly In all my years of going to PA I've rarely had a negative experience.

I'm begging Steph to let me go, but we have family in from out of town. I'm bummed I'm going to miss seeing the tank.

How long can a system go without a skimmer?
larry replied to invert's topic in Need a little help here...
It is possible to overskim. Especially for mushrooms and zoas. -

I went years. I however planned for the system to be skimmerless from the start. Either way it should hurt anything for a short time. -
Good to see you around again Doug. I always was impressed with your tanks. Sorry the LED never worked for you.
