Inbreeding and taking the pups away from mom too early. They should be with mom for 12 weeks cause they learn so much more from her in that time frame and become better pets because of it. Yeah, they can be weaning at 6 to 8 weeks but mom keeps teaching them things.
Thank you! Been on vacation! Just got back! Tank did great! It’s actually doing better than it ever has so that’s exciting! My stupid apex ph probe is not working right and had me all over the place! Not using it now since it won’t calibrate correctly… got a ph pen and all the sudden it’s all perfect!
My tank took off and I can actually see daily growth now on my sticks and huge fluffy lps… I decided to check my nutrients since it’s been a couple weeks since i tested.. po4 is high and my tank is loving it! 0.178 on my po4 currently… it’s normally bottomed out! Lol good ole reef roids for those who aren’t following and wanna know how I got them up.
That's good to hear, I have po4 readings that rival snoop dog.
Plenty of threads on it… I just grab a 40 gal brute and fill it half way with rock then fill it with water till it covers the top of the rocks and pour a entire gallon of acid in and let it set till it quits foaming… takes 45min to a hour.. pour the trash can over in my rocks and rinse everything well with my hose and let it dry for 2 days or so and throw it in my tank… people go to many extremes like a ro bath and rinse to ro bath then soak in salt water blah blah… I’m too lazy for all that and never had a problem with just acid and a garden hose…. The acid strips the rock of the outer surface and po4 so it helps tremendously with uglies… I’ve even put some in my tank a hour after a acid bath and saw no I’ll effects.. people think acid omg! While others use it to adjust freshly mixed saltwater, the worst it would do is affect your ph unless you poured it in your tank obviously haha!
All for reef! It’s pretty amazing I must say! It’s by far the easiest product I’ve ever used and the results are amazing!
