[frenchie78]

NICE! welcome Frenchie, do you run any carbon with all that leather?

 

[frenchie78]

here is another starfish i just got 2 of these.

 

[frenchie78]

i run dual BRS reactors with carbon in one side and gfo on other side but seem like i don't get the growth i use to by running the reactors on both my tanks 24/7. i use to run for a month and leave off for month since softies like dirtier water, might take them offline again and see how they do.

yup, they can be quirky like that, how about iodine levels?
