Re: Anyone Tried Floating Plants Only?

Floaters are dope, but they can be sketchy with filters. If you've got a strong current, they might not stay put. My HOB kept pushing them under.

Re: How to keep plants clean

I've heard floating plants can help by shading the Anubias and competing with algae for nutrients. Maybe try some Frogbit or Water Lettuce? They're easy to manage and look pretty cool too.

Re: Why is my coral losing color?

Might wanna look into your magnesium levels too. Low mag can cause color loss, especially in Zoanthids. Aim for around 1350 ppm if you're not already there.

Re: Feeding schedule for brain corals

Brain Corals don't need heavy feeding. Try spot feeding once or twice a week with mysis or reef roids. Keep an eye on water params, especially nitrates.
