The 6 Gallon

Thanks, The tank is to small to supplement and I'd have to do it daily if I do and I can't do that cause I'm not home enough. I change 2 of the 6 gallons weekly.

Here are the latest pics. I moved the big rock formation to the side and brought it around the tank. Now I have room for all my new guys to sit on the bottom. I just couldn't figure out how to incorporate them into the main structure and still keep it unique.

Yes they are. I know the candy cane has 2 mouths on both of its polyps and the brain is getting closer and closer everyday. Oh and the zoas are growing like crazy.

Nice zoas. That algae on the first shot, is that the first you've seen of it there? I only ask I as I had a bryopsis issue for a bit and I found a method that works well for it. If it is byropsis then taking using magnesium can get rid of it with little direct effect on your corals. Just get a syringe and apply the magnesium directly to the byropsis every day and it will not come back at all. The raised mag has not had any negative effects yet for myself or any other reefer I know that has done this.

Bryopsis:


P.S. I am pretty sure my bryopsis was a result of me not dipping a new rock AND using a new salt that apparently had quite a bit of phosphate in it...

Yeah It is that stuff...I've been meaning to do that. It came in on that candy cane coral and I had some at one time that just covered my tank which came in somewhere in my sand when I first started it. Thanks for the info...I was wondering how it affected corals.

Well we moved a few months ago from Little Rock to Dallas so I haven't had the tank setup for a while. So finally 2 days ago I set it up again and some live rock to it. Probably today or tomorrow I will get some small blue leg hermits for it to start cleaning the rocks and get my nitrogen cycle going again.
