Re: Byropsis Algae

Got in the tank today with a pair of tweezers and removed pretty much all the Byropsis, all I really had left were the stems without the frillie parts anyway. The Byropsis has all but stopped growing, I also did a water change after removing the Byropsis. Richard gave me a great idea, which to most ...

Re: Byropsis Algae

Ok,,, I was kinda freaking yesterday. I have two snails in the tank, not sure what they are called, one bigger than the other. They drag a skirt behind them and leave a slime trail on the sand when they are out moving around and munch on snails when the snails get turned upside down, they stay burie...

Re: Byropsis Algae

I dosed another 50ml this morning but think this will be my last dose for awhile, the clean up crew is really starting to take a hit :( The Byropsis is down to a strand here and there, no frille part to the strands. I have no idea how to tell if its taken a fatal hit or not, we will just take a wait...

Re: RTA Red Turf Algae Problem

Ok, we have a change of direction in my battle with the Byropsis and the Red Turf Algae problem I have going on and been trying to fight at the same time. Brandon has given me some great advice, which leads me to believe that I shouldn't be fighting both of these algae's at the same time. As far as ...

Re: Byropsis Algae

I thought I was and stopped dosing and it came back, lesson learned, don't stop dosing till you know its gone. When I started trying to get rid of this stuff, I would dose the Kents, prune the Buropsis from the tank and it would be back in two days just like it was before I pruned the tank. After do...

Re: Byropsis Algae

My snail population is taking a hit, I was expecting that though, which is not a big deal, I was planning on removing all of them from the tank anyway. The new Urchin I got for the tank, is not the same type that I had in the tank before that had been doing a really good job on the Red Turf Algae. I...

Re: Byropsis Algae

I thought I had the problem licked so I stopped dosing. After two large water changes to help fight the Red Turf Algae problem, I figured that dropped my magnesium level in the tank, some anyway, I know the mag levels don't drop that fast. I dosed the 50 ml Saturday and another 50 ml yesterday, and ...

Re: Eric's Acros

Very nice looking coral if it colors back up for you :) What would cause a coral to turn white like that? Was it like that when you got it or did this happen after you put it in your tank and that just kinda made it go into shock or something??
