I really like the rock work in your tank. What kind of brittle star do you have? Did you solve the issues with the cheato?

[TheSunnyCAReef]

Haha nice nice, sounds good be careful with the shrimp though, i had a pair before i traded them and they can be very picky during acclimation but after that they are tons of fun to watch

[TheSunnyCAReef]

Nice live rock arrangment....next fish?

[sputnik790]

@TheSunnyCAReef Um, 2 Blue Tangs, 2 Yellow Tangs, 3 Naso Tangs, 1 Moray Eel... hahaha just kidding :))) First i wanna add some corals, few shrimps - crabs and then i'll get a few Skunk Clowns, Flame Angel, Black Nox Angel, one or two Anthias... well see!

What about that slime that's appearing on chaetomorpha? Did you ever encountered that?

[newyorksteelo]

You should continue to keep the refugium light on 24 hours a day so that the chaeto can help remove nutrients faster and starve the cyano. The cause of the cyano is due to excess nutrients and phosphates so consider lowering these nutrients to eradicate the cyano. The cyano turning brown is and indication that it may be dying. Keep your feeding to a minimum and get some cerith snails and nazzarius snails to help stir the sand bed. Consider adding some carbon so as to polish the water a bit.

@newyorksteelo  Thanks Steelo, i do have ChemiPure Elite in the sump, i thought it's the best carbon media?

[newyorksteelo]

@sputnik790 IMO it is. Make sure it is directly under lots of flow in the sump. Good luck.
