![]() I have a 1 inch bed up front but my watchman goby and my tiger tail sea cucumber have moved a nice 2.5 -3 inch bed towards the back. My tank has a 37 times turn over rate. I dont have a sump at the currant momment. I do however have a mangrove groing out of the back of my tank. detritus doesnt seem to build up on rocks, but as a precaution when i feed i use a baster to blow everything in to the water column to be picked up by my skimmer. The other thing i was thinking was maybe adding a small piece of new LR to bring some new bacteria in? Any thoughts??? when i say small i mean small. I just dont want a cycle to start and screw my corals over.

![]() 'Bringing bacteria in' will not help. You need to provide more 'homes' for that bacteria by adding more oxygen free zones (ie. live rock, more deep sand bed, plenum, or denitrifier).
Adding one very small piece of live rock will do next to nothing. Last edited by ron101; 06-19-2007 at 04:15 PM. |
