Well after dealing with many algae problems and nutrients issues i finally found a way on running and sps tank over stocked with fish to do exelent. It all started with this guy name paul b. that has...
you are right.
I never had problems with coloration and polyp extension on any of my sps corals while I was using turbos L2 but I did had hair algae problems. I had Oregon tort, Shades of fall nasuta, strawberry...
Weird cause I'm running my L2 16 hrs. How big is your tank and how many fish you got. I got a 185 gallon plus sump and I have 22 fish a 3 inch hippo, 4 inch yellow tang 3 inch sailfin 6 inch foxface...
My one week growth with full dose of bio pellets so I don't see how yours is dying

Not hi jaking just showing that this method works. If some of you remember what my tank looked like you guys know that I had massive hair algae problems some how my tank couldn't handle a scrubber...
What about adding one extra pipe maybe half inch size on each side of the screen with a bunch of small holes pointing to the screen that constantly spray water towards the screen
I dont think is you return cause its keeping up with nitrates. That the same problem I had and most people no nitrates but detectable phosphates. Im trying something at the momment but it involves...
Garf im doing some testing at the momment tell me what you think. Im rumming a full dose of bio pellets im my tank its been 4 weeks im waiting till the 6 or 8th week to make sure the pellets are on...
No
Can you explain this.. cause I need all the input I can. I was running the lights for 16 hrs should I run then 8 hrs to slow the growth
Undetectable nitrates and .09 phosphates
Who here has a 2 cube a day scrubber with a 180 plus aquarium and its working like it should. And I mean fully stock reef tank with about 13 fishes or so.
The reason I ask is because I been...
Floyd yea im not talking about the paul b with the 40 year old tank im talking about reefkeeper 2 which his name is also paul b (paul brune)
I been runnin 400 ml and have not had any problems yet. And for the skimmer I can tell you that when I was running a smaller skimmer I use to see bio film floating around the tank all the time ever...
How long did you run your pellets and maybe your tumble was too much all the people I know are running them and have not seen a crash and I been running them and yet seen a negative effect im about...
Floyd im talking about paul brune

Also dont see what are you saying here it should be the same on a small or big tank actually it will be more beneficial on a small tank do to less water volume and usually people overstock their...
Also were do you get this yo yo effect from. The onlything that happends is you might get a bacterial imbalance and get cyano to show up but all u have to do is use some special blend or waste away...
Ace im sorry but u are wrong about bio pellets. One the reciculating reactors were made for bio pellets like npx an all those other pellets other than ecobak or np pearls by dr tims because they...
So how can you guys explain paul b the guy with the 400gallon sunlit tank that got totm on reef keeping. He is running bio pellets , skimmer and a scrubber succesfully. Im also running bio pellets,...

Good news. This week I ran a test on GPH on my L2 here is what I did.
I turn my ball valve to full open and pretty much max out the L2 GPH ratings since the water level was about 1/2 inch above the...
Santa monica you dont get tired of saying the same thing over and over dont you see a trend here everybody is having the same problem. Im having the same problem and I have plenty of light on the L2...
Api for nitrates and hana for phos and red sea for cal, alk, mag
Yes im tracking the same thing I think bigger tanks need longer scrubbers. And also ask any of the old guide lines ussers that have long scrubbers if they are having this issue I bet the answer is no.
The cyano is all gone but in all the areas that the cyano was its now coverred with GHA and its taking over the hole tank
I just got me a reef octopus skimmer. Thanks Garf
Should I run a skimmer
So a 12 cube a day scrubber would handle the tank by it self with no otger filtration
Its gonna have about 20 fish 6 of them being tangs. And is gonna be a mixed reef so what otger fikter equipment should I used
Would a 2 cubes a day scrubber be enought to maintain a 185 gallon reef tank on its own
i dont have that problem with my L2
In their video they said they only use the cleanser with no other filtration
If you guys want I can ask my local fish store to see if they can ship it to you guys or I can buy it and send it to ya.
how about making a horizontal type scrubber with no angle just straight horizontal and using a piece of white egg crate as a screen running a low flow though it and then using old t5 bulbs to light...
ace so you recommend using a skimmer with an algae scrubber? i been thinking of running a skimmer with my scubbber for a while to see what it does. i also was thinking on stating to use filter socks.
OK try and make an acrylic scrubber your self and see how long it takes you. Bud put plenty of hours on making this scrubbers and im willing to bet if you match the money by the hrs he puts on each...
yeap my local fish store stocks it. im in tn. what do you think floyd
also i only have 5 snails. i might add a bunch of snails. i think i might also order a yellow eye kole too

also the algae on the screen is been really tuff to remove
my screen is growing nice green algae, the phosphate levels are redusing, i try removing it but it comes back up. i feed norry but not sheets, its mixed on my DIY food that i make which consist,...
and black egg crate frag rack
