I have about 30lbs of "live" rock to 100lbs of dry rock, which was soaked and sorta kinda seeded.
When I put the live rock in... It was all really purple and it turned white in my tank. However it seems to be getting some of the purple back now. I don't know what caused this or it's if normal but it's almost as if I bleached the coraline, if that can happen. Should I turn my skimmer off to improve nutrient levels? Here is a full tank shot.. just dusk/dawn lights ![]() Here is some nice algae.. lol..gross ![]() |

Well, it does look like you are getting some growth on your rocks :-). Although the majority of it still appears pristine. I don't think you necessarily need to take your skimmer off line. Since your nutrient levels are reading zero across the board you could look into feeding your tank more. A pair of clowns and a Chromis is a very very light bio load for a 125g tank. Is your skimmer even pulling anything out?? LOL. Maybe start adding more fish or feed your corals more through other methods.

0 po4 in a few month old tank seems rather strange to me. what po4 test did you use? some are far from accurate at low range tests

I think it's salifert. All my tests are salifert or seachem. I'll have to check next time I go into the fish cave
When I first test the tank when it was initially set up I was getting some reading but now I am getting nothing... And yes, my skimmer is hauling stuff out.. Not much though LOL |
