Hello, I've had my tank set up since spring 2009
It originally had PC lighting w a bulky hood.
I just recently got a Kissel a150 and went topless w some egg crate.
-tru percula
-six line
-cleaner shrimp
-torch
-frogspawn
-montipora
-zoos
-purple mushrooms
-Nano remora skimmer
-A150 Kissel ocean blue LED hung light
-koralia 1
I've been working on giving it an "old tank syndrome" overhaul. There was an algae and cyano blight after my last vacation. Long story short there were 50 decomposing pellets still in the filter when I got back, normally there's none. So I think my sitter way over fed.
Good news is after 4 weeks of weekly 3 gallon water changes im back to 0 nitrates and nitrites, and w my new lighting i should avoid issues from my late PC bulbs.
I am considering doing a sand swap out in 3 or 4 phases, has anyone done this w good result? Any recommendations?
