I have a full-blown haor algae problem in my 75 gallon tank. Much like the video you have of yours. I didnt know it was hair algae because my Red Sea lights make it look red. All along I treated the tank for cyano. My problem is 75 gallons is too small for any of the fish you mentioned. I dont want to treat with chemicals like flux rx, but I might. Everytime I do a water change the algae goes wild growing even though I syphon a lot of it out.😭

If it helps, I used flux rx in a 40 gallon tank, and it did WONDERS. And that was in a full blown reef, nothing died

I have to sell my power blue Because it killed my copperband butterflyfish Bullied my blue tang so much , it almost stopped eating Even after introduction of 7 large new fish ( including tang , foxface , angels ) in hope to divide aggression - it wouldn't stop to be tank boss and harassing So It was a must go fish . Such a shame for such a bold and beautiful fish ❤❤ u can watch my channel to get a view of the beauty Lesson I learn: never add acanthus group fishes fish Mainly power blue, powder brown , sohal tang , etc . They should be introduced last !! Less aggressive fishes should established their territory first

@@kylealexander954​​⁠hey glad the tank is looking better ☺️ I will tell you how I feel about phosphates, and this isn’t bible, this is just the gospel according to the red reefer 😅 I don’t test for phosphates ever. I go by the eye test on phosphates. “Are corals doing well? Great, keep going.” Because the fact of the matter is, even a low reading on phosphates can mean your phosphates are actually too high but you have loads of algae sucking it all out so your test reads clean 🤷‍♂️ on the other hand, high phosphates might just mean you have nothing problematic sucking phosphates out of the water. I only test for calcium, alkalinity, and magnesium, and for the most part, things go really well

I would recommend an acclamation box for any introduction but especially tangs, I have 17 tangs in a single tank including a number of acanthurus tangs in the same tank, a powder blue, achillies, convict and a dussumieri so they can be kept together QT and tank size is key.

We have a 30+ year old 125G acrylic tank that I brought back from Japan when I was in the Air Force. So a Japan Surgeon fish was a must :). Took our LFS about a month to get one for us. Went to pick it up and noticed that it was flashing :(. But it looked healthy and was eating like a pig so we brought it home. We QT everything wet, CUC, coral and even liverock before it goes into our DT. After being in QT for 60 days, we added the powder brown and it's been healthy with our other tangs, yellow, purple and Desjardini for over two years. Setting up an 96" 310G and plan to add an Achilles when everyone goes into the new tank :).

@KolkataMarineHobbyist
@KolkataMarineHobbyist 13 күн бұрын
6:00 You can add acanthurus group tang together Rule of thumb : put 2-3 or more together at the same time So none of them are established before, as these fishes are highly territorial once established, also having other large fishes of similar temperment may help to keep and divide the aggression level down Lol I can't even keep my power blue with my blue tang in my 5 feet tank . Both were introduced together, it was good and well for months .. Then suddenly they powder blue started attacking my blue tang constantly!! So I have to divide them , and finally rehome the powder blue!!! Note : I only have powder blue, blue tang and few clownfish that time .
