After 6 weeks my tank has finished cycling (Ammonia and Nitrite have spiked and dropped to zero and the nitrate has spiked and dropped to 5.0) and I’m ready to do a major water change.
I have absolutely no algae buildup in the tank. The coralline algae died back but is still on every rock.
Questions
–
1, Is the lack of an algae bloom a reason for concern or rejoice?
2, For my first crew introduction I was looking at http://www.ipsf.com/index.html for - 12 Strombus grazers, 12 micro hermits, 6 mini stars, 6 sandbed clams.
Any comments with my selection or any feedback on IPSF?
Thanks
