honestly Im not sure, they were given to me, and as a matter of fact does anybody know what the bubbly looking coral is called?( and dont say bubble coral lol)its right above the torch coral(it was given to me also).

thnx for the compliments and I will try to post some more pix
later
p.s so far my favorite is the torch with the frogspawn a close second:rollface:

o.k guys(and gals) my rock and glass is REALLY turning brown (diatom algae?) should I get a blenny or does this stuff get consumed by the tank and rock somehow? my shiny new tank is starting to look like crap . hopefully this is all a good sign? my lights are on for 8-9 hrs a day 96watt qaud.

thnx

p.s none of my animals seem to care, just looks bad.

 

[Fishfreak218]

hmm.. you did let the tank cycle right???

 

[fishfreak2407]

uuuuuh, it had a small cycle and then tested good , is it cycling again, i thought the live sand and rock was doing its job??uhoh im such a noob

 

[Fishfreak218]

go and test you water again.... if it is cycling again.. ask a LFS if it can hold your Livestock.. tell them its an emergancy

 

[fishfreak2407]

so the brown algae is a sign of a heavy cycle? I will test when I get home from work

 

[Newreeflady]

No, the brown algae is not necessarily a sign of cycling...

nutrients + light = algae.

Test the water of course, but if all is well (no ammonia) add some cleaners (snails and such.) I don't know much about the blenny. You could lower your light time a little to help keep the algae down. Also, do small water changes if your Nitrates >5ppm or Phosphate is showing.

p.s. That xenia will take over your tank if you don't isolate it to a rock or two. If the rock it is on touches any other rocks, it will spread to them.

[fishfreak2407]

yep, my phosphates tested a little high, so I will bump up my water changes lower my light time and wait
