Loosing the greenbean :( think I'll frag a couple of the branches that haven't started stn. Random middle of brach stn, I think it was because it was loose at the base. Had to reglue it to the frag a week ago when I noticed it was loose. Seemed to go down hill since.. Dangit...

Yeah, this one :( you can actually see a spot that had stn a couple of days ago on one brach. I didn't notice it because it's on the backside. I thought it was some algae that had got stuck at first.

Did you mix the calcium carbonate with bacteria? What are you PO4 and NO3 levels?

Just follow directions. If you have an in sump skimmer just let it run without the collection cup. I don't run a skimmer so I use airstones in my sump when I do it.

i did not mix it with bacteria, i was told that was not really necessary. i will test and report back with those numbers once i get home in a couple of hours.

alright sounds good, thank you. and in response to your other comment i for sure want to find the source and solve that, beyond NO3 and PO4 is there anything else i should be testing for to help find the problem?

That was false info. The only way it has a chance is for the bacteria to settle on the rocks. Look up those instructions I linked last time.
