Greech thanks for the feedback...in answer to your question, i don't necessarily not want a clean up crew, but i'm wondering how places like restaraunts and stuff have these tanks with loads of fish and only a couple pieces of fake coral, no clean up crew, and no live rock at all...what kind of...

so in answer to your questions, my lps seem fine...and i have been trusting my LFS to get water...maybe it's time to get a RO-DI unit and take care of it myself. i started running a phosphate reactor but it seems that the whatever on the sand seems to be getting worse...it looks like a...

i have some turbo snails and some reef hermits, but they don't seem to touch the hair algae. the tank is 2 years old, and the aptasia has just gotten out of hand in the past couple of months. Will peppermint shrimp get along with my coral banded shrimp...actually i dont care if they get along...
