...know if I put things in my skimmer like media or something? And will it help with my nitrates and eventually help get rid of my algae? One last thing I'm going to rip clean a couple of my rocks does anybody have any tips on how to clean them and what to use?

...I am just now buying a skimmer for my Hob filter 65 gallon tank, I am trying to turn it around from a briopis and GHA disaster. I have a skimmer currently it is a Icecap nano 50 HOB. It does fit my tank size. How do skimmers work and do I put media in them? What is tuning? How do I tune...
He's definitely underweight and has pinched stomach. Have you seen him eat? If so my guess would be internal parasites. He's eating the food but the parasites are stealing all the nutrients. Do you have a qt tank set up or are you able to set one up? #reefsquad @Jay Hemdal
...want to add a white tail bristletooth, flame angel, and another clownfish for my black female clown that's been in there for a while. Would this be overstocked or could I add another fish if I wanted too? Im starting a fuge soon as well. Could also use tips on GHA. Mixed reef by the way...
Another ugly stage, green algae on rocks.
Just been doing water changes, cleaning inside of the glass, have a good CUC, should I consider doing anything else?
Can I add more corals to the tank right now or should I wait? #reefsquad
...and make my own salt water at home.
Here are the pictures from today, I got a skunk cleaner shrimp and some snails for CUC.
brown algae from rocks is gone, most only on sand at bottom, going to vacuum the sandbed on Tuesday with waterchange. The corals didn't open too much today #reefsquad
So I have lot of brown algae what should I do?
I have added copepods to the tank. I have 3 turbo snails and 2 hermit crabs for CUC.
I need to add a skunk cleaner shrimp and nassarius snails, the place near me didnt have it in stock so waiting on it. @Sharkbait19

...added .5 gram of Reef Buffer to my 16 gallon tank by mistake, there are only fishes in no corals.
PH is around 8.2 and Alk is 9, Ammonia at 0 ppm, Nitrite at 0 ppm and Nitrate .1 to .5 (it's between 0 and 5 ppm)
I forgot to mix it with RO water. Should I be okay or worried? #fishmedic...
Hello,
I am going to be starting a refugium in my HOB Tidal 75. I will also be able to run carbon and bio filtration in the same area. I followed a vidoe on YouTube on how to do it I am also working with my LFS. Any tips here? #reefsquad

...reef soon. Stocking plans are: 2 blueface pipefish one starry goby one tail spot blenny. Now with these I was wondering if I could put a wrasse in there. Any wrasse will do. Or will this be overstocked? And if I take the tail spot out and add a wrasse what wrasse could work?
Thanks
Cam

...or even filter feeders! Chitons, slugs, crabs, snails, shrimp anything that is small and that you don't usually see in a nano! No matter what however I do wanna do a starry goby and if I can, and the pipefish ! I guess I want this to be somewhat natural?

...are newer to Reefing and they've got the tank being custom built!
I think it's going to be awesome what do you guys think?
Here is there build thread https://www.reef2reef.com/threads/1122-gallon-tank-office-build-of-2024.1049566/
@Reefer Matt @randomfishdude #reefsquad @vetteguy53081 @KrisReef
...anybody help me out with these problems? Some of my snails and shrimp are always eaten by the wrasse although my snails have persevered there's about 15 of them. Ill put a picture of the tank in the thread so people can see certain placements.

Was looking at getting both from Biota (going for a fully Captive bred system) and wondering if they can be housed together in a 50gal? Both would be introduced same time.
Thanks!
