Thought I was having an algea bloom....but have chaeto in sump. Nitrates are 2.0- 2.5 and phosphates are .08 - .04 consistently. Wondering it this is actually Diatoms, and if so, best way to exterminate. I have been running U.V. for 2 days. Very minimal change. Help!?
I have been struggling to get my Nitrates above 0.00 for months. Even with tripling feeding to 100 small pellets and about 1.5 cubes of frozen a day in my 65, it hasn't budged. I previously used a Red sea test kei, but now use the Hanna HR nitrate and ULR phosphate and same results.

Hi,
So I had a severe vermetid snail outbreak. The vermetid snails where everywhere, so I removed them by taking out every single rock and crushing the vermetids. I probably crushed more than 100 of them (the outbreak was bad). Fast forward a couple of weeks and I notice them appearing again...
hey everyone, after a few months of leaving my tank empty i've finally had time to start all over again. this outbreak almost made me quit since it all happened so suddenly, friend bought me a surprise fish, an orange shoulder tang, dropped it directly in the tank. everything died in 2 days...
Hello everyone!
This is my first time on a reefing forum. I made an account because I can’t find any information regarding what’s going on in my tank.

All levels are completely fine and the tank is doing great other then the literal 2 - 300 slugs that seemed to develop...
