Well, the guy at AO was not as honest as I would like. Hawaiian ding dangs and not predator. he lost a customer.

Terrible I hate when I don’t get the right names because if I want to trade I can’t give a good description on what it is. I’m sorry it didn’t work out

I should have just bought my rfa. I'm now a little bitter.

edit: it's my fault. I know better and don't do better.

on the bright side, my zoa paly garden is slowly growing. Ding dangs, pandora, dying chaos, some random blues, purple monsters. I'll be able to make a lame cheap frag pack for people!

I know the feeling I bought 1 frag with aiptasia thought I could get rid of it turns out I can’t and it just spreads

Hopefully I'll see some good growth these next few months. Birdsnest looks to be sprouting now. Digi is growing polyps back. Slimer is at a stalemate.

That’s an insane amount of flow! No wonder it’s tentacles are all shrunken up like that. ;Facepalm;Facepalm

It’s really not. Duncans actually like a good amount of flow, they should be waving in the flow, just about like the Duncan at the beginning of that video is. Obviously they’ll do okay in less or even slightly more flow, but that is nowhere near an insane amount of flow.

Glad the lights are bringing back !! Also just tested phosphates again .-. There at 1.29 they went up 15 ? I have chemi pure elite in there how could that be ??

As people always said there can never be too much flow , as long as the tank isn’t getting blasted

I don't know, time to find the source. Something is storing some extra nutrients.

I cleaned the sponge , I removed the filter floss I have rock rubble in the second chamber and chemi pure elite nothing else it’s really weird unless I’m not testing correctly but I highly doubt it

1.0 phosphate is really high. Know anyone with a different test kit?

I can use my salifert test kit I have but other then that I don’t have anyone else

use it.

 

[shadow_k]

use it.

Same results 1 , I also doubled checked my back chambers I found the ceramic rings back there I threw those away they were also covered in gunk I also just bought a new return pump because I feel like I’m not getting a lot of water movement coming in and out

 

[Goaway]

GFO is the only way to help. The source of it is there somewhere, unless it is in the water you are adding to top off.

Mmm I never thought of testing my auto top off .. tbh I don’t remover the last time I cleaned this out

 

[Goaway]

might want to see, I am only trying to help find source.
