    Algae

    Where are you getting the water for your changes? Is it tap water? 3 gallon changes sounds a lot I would think 1 1/2-2 gall would be ample. Do you have a clean up crew? So many possibles mate. It should go with time though. Dave

    Houston!! We have a problem....maybe!

    I only dose my 12g with marine snow once every 10 days. I have just had to sell some colt coral back to the lfs because it got to big for my tank. My mushrooms are huge, and my button polyps spreading like wildfire. I have never added any other additives to the tank. Could it be that the corals...

    hermits shedding skin

    Well I didn't know they did that!!! I came down this morning to find what I thought was a dead crab, but no! I still have two. All it had done was to shed it's skin. As an aside, how many turbo snails could I have in my 12g nano? I have two crabs and three turbo's at the moment dave
