Nano, I've got an extra dose if you need some.


doesn't do anything for AEFW, just the little red planaria. In tank, nothing completely gets rid of the acro eating flatworms.

Is this your 35-gallon cube? I would try adding another powerhead since you have them on hand anyway. See what happens. It's hard to get high turnover in small tanks without getting areas of concentrated flow that is too high or too close to the corals. I would suggest you mess around with flow a bit.

Do you use carbon or GFO or any other resins?

Well I'm glad I didn't fing them. Still bummed abiut losing a few things but this is the way things go at times I suppose. At any rate thanks everyone for the help and suggestions, I will post a update in my build thread when I find time during the move
The tank is barebottom now, witb the ato hooked in etc, rearranged the rock similar to how I had them in the last update, and added another powerhead for more circulation re did the plumbing so I can easily disconnect it, added lock line instead of elbows, hmmmm what else.. yeah I think that's all, I just realized there hasnt been a refugium light running over my cheato for 3 nights better pick it up tomorrow, anyonr thing its a problem to leavr the chaeto in the dark for 3 days?
