chimera Posted August 3, 2004 Author Report Share Posted August 3, 2004 Am still battling this crap stuff. Whatever it is, it's probably a mixture of many things in my tank, specifically: - crap lighting (fluoro's) - overstocking (9 fish to 400 litres) - poor water flow (one 1060 on SCWD, couple of power heads, seaswirl on 1060 at low flow rate) Not too interested in completely irradicating it at the moment - just keeping it under control. When the new tank goes in, there will be: - better lighting (2 x 250W 10K MH's) - better stocking levels (9 fish to 1,000 litres) - better water flow (two 1060's on SCWD's with rotating flow nozzle outputs, sea-swirl on Iwaki at high flow rate, LR sitting on reef-rack for good bottom flow) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reef Posted August 3, 2004 Report Share Posted August 3, 2004 do you use a phostphate remover?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chimera Posted August 3, 2004 Author Report Share Posted August 3, 2004 only the phosphate remover bags that you buy, 3 of them sitting in the sump for about the last month. there is no phosphate present currently (there was about 2 months ago). nitrates are present but very low (higher 2 months ago - nitratereductor must be helping here). there is nothing except what is listed above that would cause the cyano. have been doing 20% water changes weekly with ASW in the 3 weeks.
