Thinking of going fauna

Bio and ultra life if used as directed and for the correct period of time is a fantastic 100% natural way of ridding systems of algal issues providing there is no continued underlying cause.

Works well for - outbreaks due to holiday over feeding, reduced water change schedules, accidental nutrient over dosing, cyano outbreaks in a normally healthy system

Does not work so well for established high nutrient issues in established old tanks where the nutrients have become bound in tanks structures. In this case we recommend regular maintenance with bak and bio.

That would certainly describe my tank although phosphates haven't affected the corals yet, it never hurts to be proactive

Once we establish your Po4 levels I think if they are high and can be got under check then your coral colour and growth will be amazing, its great now and a tank anyone would be proud of, but as you say best to be proactive.

Better coral growth would be a bad thing....seriously

sounds like your system is very well balanced then and if anything ust needs some fine tuning.

But until i know the test results dont do anything other than what you are doing now

It is well balanced but I don't use test kits to tell me how the tank is doing, I go by feel and I have a feeling things are going to be reaching critical mass at some point in the near future

And Dave I will give you a ring sometime today

By critical mass you mean coral colonies that are too heavy to lift right?

Do you still have the old pump from your old calcium reactor? I just broke a part on mine cleaning it
