reefwars will become famous soon enough
Default

nitrates and phosphates were off the color chart and right through the roof.......algae everywhere on every inch of rock.....amonia was present......cal,alk,mg were all over the place.....alot of work to be had so i got right to it.


i cleaned off what i could manually, i did major water changes starting with 70% and working my way to 10% every few days.i cut my lights and built a gatorade reactor and started running carbon and rowa phos.

once things got back to somewhat normal and amonia disappeared i added a few turbo snails and a lawn mower blenny to help with the algae battle.
