Shame about the MOC pieces mate, I like to see what im buying first. The lack of growth with your chaeto will be down to lack of food source, very low P04 mate Be careful with N03 and P04 mate as the lack of P04 and high N03 can bring out Cyano Good luck with the baby mate happy times -
The recommended time to go fallow is 6 weeks but it will not hurt to extend that a little. Fingers crossed everything will be ok
-
Do not fear the worst mate, I have had Ws in the past and only lost a few of the fish. Sad you lost your purple tang they are a stunning fish. I would suggest you go fallow for 6 weeks . That will end the WS cycle. Have you got UV or ozone running ? This will help kill the free floating parasites

Looks like a great bit of kit @Eric@Fish Street Do you have any reviews of it
-
Hi Jason, some nice pictures there mate and great colours on your corals. Please show us some of your system and let us know how you are running it and maintaining it.
-
I think given time the particulates will work through to the filter socks and be gone, you tank is still very immature and you will have small particles that have not bound to the larger rains of sand.
-
Great stuff mate looking forward to your tank thread and watching it grow. Im sure @w3bbo can help you with the doser as he also uses GHL Im sure @chris.viner87 runs an algae reactor.
-
Very nice mate, great fish selection there as well. Any pictures of the sump ? How are you running it ? - Dosing,Ca reactor water changes
-
As a calculated guess I would say around 10-15kgs mate - that's comparing it to a kitchen cabinet.

have you had a look at ikea pal ?
