this tank has been established for 3 years before i moved it. there is a ton of hair algae on the sand and on the liverock

quick question. i have a 5 pound bucket of NLS 1mm cichlid pellets..... would that be ok to feed to my saltwater fish?

check out what i just found..... looked at my tank and saw a rock moving across the sand.... upon a closer look.... a hermit crab somehow survived the move

Looking good those blue damsels are mean little buggers and will terorize most new tank members they are completely fearless once established. Not sure how the cichlid food would work out I wouldn't do it unless I had for sure confirmation it was ok for your fish cheers

I've fed it for years, no problems with it. Krill is a large ingredient in it.

I like the aquascaping job The damsels can be a little aggressive so becareful of what else you put into the tank. I would check at night time your collection of copepods before you get a scooter blenny. They are said to eat mysis, like mine did in the store. As soon as he hit my tank he has never once touched any type of food I have ever fed.
