00W's AIO Smorgasbord

[Katrina71]

I have these coming on Monday.
I don’t have any new bio balls. I have a bunch in the big tank. Should I put some into the small filter?

Sure

 

[ESABOE]

What should I test for?
I don’t think anemones consume calcium and mag so can I skip out on that?
Just test alk and nitrate

Always nitrate/phosphate and PH.

Alk/cal/mag later once I start to restock tank with corals/fish

EDIT; just saw Joel’s post on testing - do what he said.

I’m stepping out of this one, too many cooks in the kitchen and u don’t need the newb like me

Ammonia for a bit.
Alk, nitrate, phos, ph.
Ph hard in small tank like that.

I have one of those ammonia alert things on the glass.
I always for get about ph. I never really worry about it lol

This stuff is pretty rad junior.

You are no newb.
You give great advice and everything you write is well written.

So it wasn’t just my house?

@Calmwaters , in my 19 years of reefing I can’t recall aptasia multiplying that rapidly or being on my glass, plastic and rock yes. I really can’t make out anything in your pictures but I have seen dozens of pictures of hydroids on glass, google those and see if they are a match.
