ID:	5540Hey guys!
    A bit of help needed. I have some flatworm issues in my tank. They seem to mainly be living on my frogspawn, but there are a few stragglers roaming around on the glass, and even the carpet anenomies. I know a blue velvet midi is suppossed to feed on them, and that's been considered. But, im not sure the midi would go cruising around on the frogspawn, open brain, or carpet anens after them. I've done the whole sucker trick and gotten some, but they retreat ...

  2. long time no post, my 40 brd update

    Hello all, its been 3 months since my last post, lol. An update of my tank is that I traded the "pool filter" fluval FX5 for a CPR Aquatics HOB Refugium w/ PS. It is the largest one, 28 in.

  4. GHA Fight Update & Pics (including FTS)

    Finally took some pics with the whites on as well. I'm going with less light during the day while I fight off the GHA (which I'm beating, it's in retreat), so my whites are only on for 4 hours. That means they're off by 5pm, so they're usually off by my free time after supper in the evenings.

    I'm beating GHA the old fashion way. Shortened/reduced photo period (meaning the photo-period is shorter, and I'm using less lights during that shorter period), and reduced feeding. Good chaeto ...
