Hi all, Just after some open and honest feedback on aquascaping a 4 foot Cade 1200. This is our first time aquascaping so open to any changes you would make. We are aiming for a mixed reef tank with some negative space. So far what you can see in the pics is 20lb Caribsea shapes and 40lb of...

Hi everyone help is needed! I have noticed today a black hair like algae growing on my live rock! (Picture below!) a little concerned as to what it actually is? Why it’s there? How it’s there? And if it’s harmful or not? (Or part of the process I’m in) also if it needs removing or not? Or to be...
