how is your tank making out today? Did the water change help? I have quite a few hermits in my tank and none of them go near the zoas?

I'm sure you'll get it under control as you know where the culprit was that caused the nitrate spike. None the less I've got my fingers crossed for you.

I don't think it's wise to take info from a newbie with 35 post lol

Thanks for the appreciation btw :D

Screech.......

I never said for you to run no cleanup Crew, I said I don't have a CUC, but I have a large natural CUC, I also said no crabs which I don't use for obvious reasons.

Your tank and my tank are completely different, for you to run your tank like mine will likely end up with pollution problems.

Basically I'm order to feed heavily you need to be able to export what you don't use, with no Skimmer is next to impossible, a low nutrient with no Skimmer sire but high nutrient ain't gonna happen.

Feeding your tank more food than you export is asking for trouble.

I run a Skimmer for 8x my tank volume and rum gfo aggressively, if I didn't I would be screwed.

Overfeeding is an advanced method, if not done right you'll mess your tank up bad, hence the reason everyone says not to overfeeding:p

Exactly. Myself like Denny I run a natural cuc of brissle worms and pods. There numbers let me know if I over feed or not. But I run a overkill skimmer and Change socks out daily. Along with prodibio and rowa. For the most part my two fish and one shrimp are hand fed. I also feed zeo to my coral which I found helps my skimmer performance.
