depends how big it is. If its small, they might just trip over, if its big they actually might hurt themselves! :lol:
-
Very common in my tank. Damsels dig....crabs also. Pretty normal. Nothing to worry about except that you have to shovel it back!
-
gotta say, it impresses me!
-
Note ACRO lower centre screen compared to one month ago.
-
One month later.....

saltwater = 2 heaped teaspoons per 300 litres. This will raise DKH by 2.
-
Its very difficult to get good sucftion out of a small diameter pipe. The flow just isnt there. But good luck!
-
Reef, settle down boy, or definitely no garlic for you my friend!!! :lol:
-
I have decided... If some one comes up with a SUREFIRE removal system, they WILL become very wealthy!
-
No, I owe reef lunch!
-
Whitespot is horrid and I hate it....SS works 40% and only helps to gain immunity. Garlic still not sure. I do know lowering temp to 23 or 24 will assist, but its too damn hot at the moment to test properly.
-
yeah, I would have thought so. Have you or the wife been spraying anything nearby....flyspray etc? have you checked ammonia, nitrite and nitrate?
-
Ira, 20% will not dilute enough.
-
20% wont remove enough toxins in the water column, (If any). 50% will put a decent dent in the problem. 50% will not hurt the reef as long as you have the temp/salinity and ph/kh equal befroe adding it. I have done HEAPS of 50% water changes.

Thats cool.....You'll want carbon back in in a few weeks. The water will be horribly coloured. I use carbon 24/7. Just dont use too much.
-
That picture is quite orange compared to how WASP had it before.....It was Bright pink....AWESOME.
-
No, Ira knows to sort the temp/salinity and Ph first etc.
-
The ammonia will be gobbled up within 24 hours if you have heaps of live rock. No probs!
-
Dont put carbon back in until you know everything is fine. You can go up to 6-8 weeks with Zero Carbon and it wont hurt anything.
-
Ira, My advice: 1: Remove carbon. 2: Do a 50% water change NOW with water you know is good. 3: raise KH back to 10 all in one hit with baking soda, (1 x Heaped teaspoon per 300 litres = 2DKH) 4: THEN LEAVE IT. Feed sparingly. There is nothing else you can do. If after a week things havent changed do one more 50% water change. CHECK YOUR WATER SOURCE FIRST.
