Yeah it magnifies it a lot! That's why I wanted the bubble to begin with. Look at the first two photos I post - the top down you can see there's lots of room around the rock, and the front view it...

Yes, I ended up ordering the bigger bubble. I went with the 12" bubble which was the biggest reasonably priced bubble I could find that wasn't hand blown (hand blown is "wavy" instead of clear). I...

The Fluval 106 ran overnight and the temperature this morning is 74.3F, so the heat added by the Fluval is offset by the added water volume. I'm going to look into options for inline heaters.

Congrats! He looks a bit premature to me. I've raised many batches of them. You can get about 60% of baby Banggai to eat very tiny pellets if you're patient enough. Hopefully you can wean him to...

Yes, certainly 100% water changes will be the norm. I'm using H2Ocean so that should help keep parameters in check.

It's not Bryopsis,it is Cladophora. It's a tougher algae to get rid of than Bryopsis, but it usually grows much slower. I'd remove it from the glass and be thankful that's the only place it is.

Your picture is too blurry to make out. I can't read the numbers at all. I thought it was just on my phone, but now on my computer I can't read it either.
