If you've been battling any PO4, you may as well do it in the dark and cure it a bit - weekly WCs
Greg, thanks for sharing. I don't think PO4 will be an issue but I am fearing that there may be some die off which may affect the nitrate and PO4. Snails will be in the new frag tank however I did forget about the other critters so glad you brought that up. What is the best way to feed them?
I think I will just cycle the rocks in the dark as all the encrusted corals will be taken off and may be this will be a good way to kill them blue polyps.
