I’m surprised that juvi orange shoulder hasn’t demolished that hair algae. When I added mine he cleaned it in a matter of days.

Looks more like chrysophytes then hair algae to me, good sir. Why do you have a refugium, to suck up nutrients right? You have a light fish stocking compared to your volume of water, and plenty of corals to take up nutrients. Red macro algae grows alot slower then caulerpa or cheato, and there arnt too much for him to suck up from the water. Imo you only need a refugium if your nitrates and phosphates are sky high and you cant lower them with other means. Otherwise youre just taking nutrients from the corals. Food for thought. Your system looks very sleek, keep it up!
@acrocapitalАй бұрын
hey! Thanks I agree definitely chrysophytes, it was mainly hair algae a few months back and then morphed into just being chrysophytes. Fuge helps out alot with keeping everything in check, in my opinion its an added buffer to help consume what the corals cant.

That doesn’t look like hair algae. Probably chrysophytes? Nice setup tho!
@acrocapitalАй бұрын
I think youre right, It was hair algae originally and then morphed into that. I assumed it was still just hair algae! thank you for pointing that out!

Hey i have a 60 gallon reef tank on a fluval fx4 canister filter. Ive been having problems with nitrate and phosphates what is the absolute best media you think i should run in it to help ?
@acrocapitalАй бұрын
Hey! I would do phosban and WC for immediate results then switch to rowa phos after your back in the normal range for the long term. But the best results are unfortunately going to be upgrading to a sump and skimmer.
@Coral-reef.Ай бұрын
@@acrocapital yes i do need a skimmer i was thinking of a tunze 9004 dc skimmer in tank for now to help out but a sump will be impossible for now unfortunately. I have my fx4 filled with ceramic bio balls and packed with seachem matrix do you think that is good or will the ceramic bio balls trap too much gunk ?
@ARandomTrexАй бұрын
Do you have a lot of fish? Try not to overfeed. Do smaller amounts more often or just smaller overall. When you feed, don't just dump it in. Let them eat it all and if they need more, feed a bit more. Especially if we're talking pellet/flake food. Clean your mechanical media in your canister more often. That's all rotting food and poop in those sponges. If you can clean it 3 times a week that would help. Throwing a bit of gfo in a mesh bag (in your cansiter) wouldn't hurt. I don't know how old your tank is but the more mature it gets the easier it can handle the load. When it comes to nitrates, in your case about the only thing you can do is water changes and adjust feeding. Be sure to use good clean ro water when mixing salt as well.

Did u say 90 g ever 5 days?
@acrocapitalАй бұрын
Just bumped it back to 110G over the course of 5 days, but Saturday and Sunday its off so I can mix more.
@tommyl.8951Ай бұрын
Are you doing that because tanks are not mature, thats whats feeding that algae bro
@acrocapitalАй бұрын
How would that feed into the algae? My idea behind that is to maintain low nutrients.
@tommyl.8951Ай бұрын
@acrocapital newer water can feed algae depending on whats in it,also as much water as your changing out can deplet nutrients which can cause unwanted algae and also the dreaded dino
@acrocapitalАй бұрын
@@tommyl.8951 Interesting I wasn’t aware of that w/ new salt and algae. Definitely will take that into account. I had Dino’s first when I first started the system a few months back. Always a fight with those lol.
