Hey all!!
so I’ve reached wits end battling lobophora algae in my nano tank, so I’ve decided to completely restart, well almost. I’m keeping my livestock in a quarantine tank (glorified bucket on the floor) while I completely sterilise my tank, and add fresh rock and sand. I’m going to cycle it again, before adding my clowns and shrimp.
I’ve read some articles and watched on YouTube, as well as some friends, who recommend you can cycle a tank with corals in it. I wouldn’t want to risk some of my gonis and monti, but would consider cycling with some of my hardier corals, like my xenia, my zoas, maybe my morphs/rics.
I’m open to suggestions, but just wonder what the opinions are on this method
