Hi,

Nice to see another reefer near by, I'm in Shediac, and I can understand your frustration trying to find reef related products at our local pet store, plus they are very ignorant about reef keeping.

Regarding your nutrient export, I personnaly have a 90 gal reef with quite a large bioload. In order to keep algae in order I have resorted to better skimming, phosban reactor (24/7) plus 20% water and carbon change every 2 weeks.

My water parameters are within range. my clown fish spawn on a regular basis (almost every 2 weeks), and my rose buble tip anemone has splited last week after being in my tank for less than 2 months. I still get the odd patch of hair algae from time to time, but the blenny takes care of it.

Hope it can be of help
