[sorgan]

so today i picked up a candy cane frag, a small sun (its only in this tank till the big tank is sorted out) and a large pink stylopora

excuse the cyano, it is clearing up slowly.

 

[seffieuk]

he is, he also very slowly tries to turn over the sand bed. saldy he is a bit pants at it.

 

[sorgan]

darn cyano isnt shifting, gonna get me a skimmer at the weekend as my v2 80 is broken (i think the venturi things are blocked) anyone happen to know a decent, sheapish HOB skimmer for nano's?

 

[sorgan]

so i got a skimmer today, a hydor slimskim nano. just fits but is putting out some micro bubbles. now time to sort that out

 

[sorgan]

so the skimmer is going great! the stuff its pulled out already is amazing! i am thinking of getting its bigger brother (again) for my main tank

so the cyano is dying back, i also bunged in an abalone yesterday to deal with the other algae growth.

i may of also got a few frags

so much for just an sps tank oh well.

Probably a stupid question but whats a abalone.

 

[sorgan]

its like a really ugly snail

 

[seffieuk]

Sorgan, why not move one of those powerheads down, closer to the sand, it would increase the oxygen level and starve the cyano

[sorgan]

done and done! i have forgotten so much about lit tanks

 

[sorgan]

Just picked up the most stunning trachy I have seen for a long time, will post a pick as soon as I am home and it's in.

 

[sorgan]

ok here he is, just you wait untill its fully settled in!
