Well i am sending pictures the first picture is of the tank 1 month after setup. The second picture is 2 months after setup (now).
You will see in the first picture the large green algee problem. I have done about 70 gal of water changes in small amounts over the past month.
Now in the second picture you will notice a red something maybe algee problem maybe not a problem I don't know. it is really a pretty color, but I don't know about it. very low on the glass has the red color, and also on the sand. There is also some on the live rock, but not very much on the rocks.
Water Quality just tested
PH 8.0
Nitrites 0
Amonia .25
Nitrates 20
Now this is interesting to me I asked my LFS they said that I am doing water changes to often. I didn't ask about the red color. They said that is why the amonia is there and why the nitrates are not brakeing down. I don't know about that but well what do you think
I was doing about 8 gal 3 times / week for that month in a 90 gal tank.
1. about the red color
2. about doing to maywater changes
3. do I stay on the same water changing schedual do I cut back?
