my first saltwater build (new photos 8/8/12)

The idea is nice no pests and what not but in the end you will get pests unless you do a rigorous dipping corals will come in with something but some of the "pests" are fine IMO. Like bristleworms until they get enormous like mine but otherwise they eat uneaten food and etc.

Even with a dip, pests will get pass it....

Only pest I'm scared of now is red flat worms. My last battle with then ended poorly.

....I'm not going to mention who got my tank invested with RED FLAT WORMS!

all this talk about salt water pests makes me not want one almost.

Hey thats assuming MJ. Besides I cleared mine up with no problems Flatworm exit and 6 line does magic. Again its about the skills.

[sunkenmetal]

Nah I don't have the skills

[jeb102385]

That's why you make darbex set it up... Like I did

Man, F**K that shzt. lol, that's not assuming....I know who I got it from.

I used 3 different 6 lines. Them punk arse fish didn't even eat any flat worms.

I used flat worm exist 3 times and they still didn't die off.

I hate all flat worms with the passion now.

And I'm telling you move the rocks from the sides so that you can fit a glass cleaner between it.

Listen to the man! Personally, I would leave enough room to get your hand while holding a razor blade in between the rock and glass. If you get busy and forget to use the mag cleaner for a while that algae gets tough to get off.

[myjohnson]

Lol, you need a stronger mag cleaner dude.

[BeefyG]

Prolly. I was gone on a business trip for a month too so you couldn't see into the tank by the time I got back. Coraline went nuts though lol. Stuff happens, jus sayin...

[myjohnson]

Nahhhh, coralline is a b**** to get off. So I feel you on using the razor.

I've learned from my mistake in the pass hence my new scape is even more minimal compare to my last few.

[jeb102385]

I can get the mag float in on both sides
