What kind of rock is that? either looks ceramic or like its from TBS.com. VERY nice aquascaping with the bridge! It looks good. Should do a follow up when the bridge is covered with coraline also

Nice FTS, looks like you got rid of your phosphates. reeferrocks are awesome, had my cube tank full of them before I sold it.

Double-J · 04/15/2007, 10:45 PM

just noticed, only two fish in the pics?

Hi Tinytool

No I have more fish than that.....the picture is a photomerge of 2 shots.
It just so happened that when I shot the left side the fish were on the right side and when I shot the right side the fish were on the left side...lol.

I have...

Sailfin Tang
Clown tang
Hippo tang
4 Green Chromis
1 Lawnmower Blenny

I dont think the phosphates were the main problem as I have traced the problem back to a misreading the dosing instructions on Potassium.
I ended up overdosing potassium by quite a bit and the symtoms of everything fit noted potassium overdose symtoms I read about.

I now have things under better control and potassium levels are falling off. Tank is improving daily. I am hoping to get a few nice corals at the swap to start replacing the ones I lost during this fiasco.

Now your talking, that is some serious fish! Should have read your first post closer, I can't even tell it's merged. Good to hear you found the source of the problem.

Great merge. Very clean and no noticeable seams. The clarity is great! I was thinking of adding some plain rock to my (almost 40lbs) of live in the interest of saving some dough and bulking up my bio load over time. Love the aquascaping!
