Surprised to see some really nice freshwater tanks a few days ago. I am wondering how hard is it to care for compared to reef?
Added some pica of the freshwater tanks I saw. They seem to be a little more complex than what I am use to.
Getting ready for a long trip and decided to test nitrates. I usually test only Alk and po3 consistently. Nitrates tested 0 which was a surprise considering a month ago it was around 20. I dose po3 and n04 daily.
The acan started shrinking a few days ago while other corals look ok but not the...
Once in a while, I see a floating torch tentacle. Will this tentacle still sting? Today I saw the tentacle on a chalice. I wasn't sure if the chalice was feeding on the tentacle or the tentacle was stinging the chalice. The tentacle seems to be stuck on the chalice pretty good and left a mark.
Looking to add a couple of sticks to the tank, don't want to add more lights. What fuzzy/hairy acropora looks nice but doesn't require intense lighting to show great colors?
Do shaded areas have PAR? I didn’t test it the last tome I had borrowed from the club.
What are thoughts on shaded areas for Zoas? or any other photosynthetic coral? Running out of ideas/placement for a few corals since the torches growing.
