In this update of the 135g tank, we have added a McCosker's Flasher Wrasse from Ocean Garden Reef from the DMV area, as well as adding 7 new
Zoanthid frags to the Zoa Garden. Not everything is amazing however, as bubble is back, even after the Vibrant treatment, and I am contemplating the next step. I have also started experimenting with a double day light cycle over this reef tank. 🤔

Hey man, something you might want to consider: I also used vibrant to overcome a tank crash which resulted in an outbreak of all sorts of algae (gha, turf, and bubble). I was able to get my rocks clear of algae, but then, like you, my tank developed a problem with cyano and dinos. I was so focused on getting the algae out that I bottomed out on nitrates and phosphates. After a period of heavy feeding and eventually dosing nitrates, the cyano and dinos went away. Fast forward about two months, I am battling gha and bubble algae again (I think I was too relaxed with nitrates and phosphates because it was so difficult to get them back up after bottoming out). I am now resorting back to vibrant again, however I make sure to dose nitrates after my vibrant dose and test nitrates almost daily to make sure they don't bottom out. I am hoping that by dosing nitrates and keeping a readable phosphate level while using vibrant, I will be able to get the desired results without the nasty dino/cyano side effect. That said, my dino problem wasn't as bad as yours, so im not sure if you want to take the chance and dose vibrate again but this time with nitrates (and phosphates if needed).

Hey man, thank you for sharing your experience. I think I am following the exact same trajectory as your system... I see bubble algae popping up now that I have laxed on the NO3/PO4. I am a bit nervous about dosing Vibrant again because of what it means if I don't pay attention to my parameters. I was recommended an online store that sells emerald crabs that are guaranteed to eat bubble aglae, so I may try that first along w/ manual removal, before resorting to dosing something for them again. Please keep me posted on how your battle is going? I'd be interested to see if keep the NO3 up after dosing Vibrant will indeed avoid welcoming dino...
@neurowolf2730
@neurowolf2730 3 жыл бұрын
@@InappropriateReefer For sure, I'll definitely keep you updated on this little experiment of mine. Another thing I'm doing this time around is a much less aggressive dosing schedule for vibrate. My first go at it, I was dosing every 3rd day. This time I'm doing once weekly at a bit under the recommended dose (however, one week I lost patience and dosed twice in the week, but I will be continuing with once per week unless I am not seeing much progress with the bubble algae). So far, I'm about 5 weeks in with a significant loss of hair algae, but the bubble algae is still growing in some spots. Last time, it was around this point that the cyano and dinos started showing themselves, but this time there is no cyano or dinos visible as of yet. I'm also starting to run carbon as a means of exporting organics since I don't have a skimmer and have been relying only on biological filtration via rocks, sandbed, chaeto and biomedia (its a very very small tank - a fluval evo 13.5)

I recently got a Pandora Paly and a green paly. My green paly has been doing good and opening fully but my Pandora has shrunk a little and has just recently started not opening fully, they open but the tentacles are less pronounced and heads seem smaller, they look to be growing together (the stalks were very long but they shrunk up and a few have been merging together) does this mean they arent healthy or are they merging together or something. I noticed when they were doing good my nitrates were 10-20PPM, now my nitrates are around 5PPM. Salinity is 1.025 temp is 79 during the day and 77 at night. Calcium is 470+ and magnesium is 1390, my Hammer is doing great and so is my GSP and Florida ricordea mushrooms. My ph is 8.0. I do have some Nas Snails, Hermits, a Skunk shrimp and a Mandarin that occasionally cruise over the Palys, would this be the reason?

When you're cutting the "plug stem" off the frag plug, what are you doing to glue it to the rock? are you just adding super glue to the bottom of the disk and placing it in the water on the rock? Been looking to do something similar, but I have been concerned about just doing that with the super glue.

I think your tank would benefit a lot from doing color contrast with coral. You can use a chart people use for art to make your tank more beautiful. We have a lot of the same coral and a lot of the same fish, my rock work looks cheaper but my tank looks more colorful even though it isn’t as grown in because of the contrast colors I chose I think.

They were dropping like flies during the dino outbreak (nutrients bottomed out probably did them in) - I lost the 5 head Frogspawn 2 months ago, and also lost the pink Octcospawn and single head gold hammer. I was able to keep that cluster of Frogspawn up front and there is another big cluster of pink/green frogspawn in the back left corner. They seems happier in the back with the low flow, so I may move the frogspawn from the front to the back as well to remake that garden.

Bro. You need a clear box to put new fish in when adding to your tank, leave it in the "Peace keeper" for a few weeks then let him loose. Give time for everyone to get to know him. Imagine some random stranger moved into your house and just stayed there. You would probably be aggressive also. Thus to insure the safety of you and your family . These fish think no different you added a new face to the tank without giving proper time for them to get to know each other. The best practice is to add your least aggressive fish first bro. You know better than that. Stop forgetting the basics!!!!!!

Sounds good, thanks for the recommendation -- I wasn't expecting as strong a reaction from the Anthias so was definitely caught off-guard.

I got one years ago from a fellow reefer that made his own acrylic stuff. So custom design for me. And on a lighter note . Love you're tank btw, not hating, we all need a kick in the butt, sometimes as people we don't think it 100% through, I do it all the time for sure. Where I'm like okay this will work I have enough going one should be fine. In reality they all just turn on that one fish , if I can some how find the guy that made mine. I'll gladly send you one. Tho I deal with tanks 20 gal and under so I'll make sure it's bigger. If I can find one that is. Respect is owed to you. as you show your failings and I really respect that man. Not every day is a nice day on the reef. I'm glad you show the good and the bad.
