what about that stuff like phosbuster pro by carib sea, i won a bottle of that stuff from aquatic treasures with bottles of other additives does that stuff really work for phosphates.

Some chemicals don't fix the issue's at hand, they are just bandaids to the real issues. That's why I don't really use any other than that stuff for ick I loaned you. And I only use it because Letmegrow said he used it and it worked. And I haven't used it yet, you used it before I did.

i'm gonna move some more chaeto over into my other sump and add different light on sump cause other light not to good. Got tons of that good fern stuff if you would like some more,lol, just kidding i gonna pull it all out of sump only thing is its full of bristleworms and pods so if anyone has a sump that will not put the fern calupra in display tank i have tons full of bristleworms and pods. Fair warning its the same stuff that over took stu's tank. My tangs love it though free food for them.

It would not have taken over had I got my lazy butt on top of it when I noticed it in the main display. But Lonnies yellow tang ate it like crazy though what little was left when I got him.

That was my fault it took over.

you got your rock back in tank, and how is all your corals doin. i got a bad case of bubble algae and hair algae which is subsiding now that skimmer is been cleaned regularly and skimmer hasn't went nuts and making my salinity drop. Got a couple more days of vacuuming some flatworms and than i'm zapping the last few flatworm exit once i get some more carbon to run after the die off starts.

Some rock is back in and the rest of what I have left coral wise is back in.
