Repto, when you say.....
Quit feeding and skim aggressively along with some more frequent water changes
How often are you saying I should feed then? I wouldn't want anything to suffer in the tank. I do a good deal of the feeding, and I also hand feed. When I hand feed, there is not a great deal of excess going off into the tank because my corals and I have a great little routine. Lets just say, I know just how much they want, where they like the food put... so there isn't a lot of waste in the tank. As far as fish food goes, the amount given is consumed, so I think we're watching pretty carefully. Dakar and I check with each other to make sure we aren't dual feeding since fishies can be such mooches. We had the mother of all cyano breakouts IMO. It looks pretty good now, but there's still more that will disappear with more persistence and advice. What would we do without everybody's tips and tricks...not to mention the members that wow us with their brilliance!! :mrgreen:
