Algae Scruber from Poland :)

Tell me Leoni, do you also have very strong display lightning?

yes,and what do you mean?

[Vannpytt]

Read my sps and scrubber growth thread. You might have the same problems as me. Too strong or wrong light in display tank compared to scrubber even if the guidelines are followed.

[leoni]

I just mute the problems at the moment, generally the sand had become very white and slowly rock it gets clean of algae.

The tank operates without skimming from November 2011

hello,
tell me why for some time now I have a low Ph 7.88 never fell below the 8

What could be the reason and how to pick them up?

[SantaMonica]

Scrubber getting weak again, maybe.

How is growth?

Check bulbs and flow.

[leoni]

hi,

Flow getting weak, turning algae yellow. If you can't increase flow, then add iron.

[leoni]

flow of 5000l / h, iron given once a week 15ml
also noticed that whiten started a seriatopora hystrix from the bottom, which may be the reason?

[SantaMonica]

More iron. If you have yellow growth, there is not enough iron. But it still looks like weak flow.

Any time a stony coral starts bleaching, it probably needs more food particles.

[leoni]

or simply double dose or 30ml?
