I have a ton of halimeda I can give away as well.  Unfortunately I will not be at the meeting so if you want some you will have to come to Sandy and get some.]]> Wed, 04 Jan 2006 16:16:42 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9807&PID=92190&title=just-cleaned-the-glass#92190 <![CDATA[Just cleaned the glass... : Your tank is totally awesome and...]]> http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9807&PID=92176&title=just-cleaned-the-glass#92176 Author: Gahlenfr

That is just crazy talk, getting rid of the halimeda!

Look close at those pictures... there's halimeda in almost every one of them!  I used to just pluck it out, but now my corals are in the way and I can't get to it as easily.  It overgrows sps and eventually steals all the light.  I've never seen any of my fish pick at it.  Is there anything that will eat this stuff? 

Oh and I have millions of small brittle stars (not the white ones, these are brown/tan with striped rings around the legs and are about the size of a quarter).  I pulled out a handful of halimeda over the weekend and there must have been 50 stars in it!  Very cool!  I want to keep the stars and ditch the algae .

Every reef tank should have a "turd of a cucumber". They are great for keeping the sand clean and they only mess with about 1/4" of it!]]> Wed, 04 Jan 2006 12:55:08 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9807&PID=92166&title=just-cleaned-the-glass#92166 <![CDATA[Just cleaned the glass... : jfinch wrote:Thanks again.

Any ideas how I can get rid of all the halimeda in my tank?


Who's selling cheap peppermints?  I've got an escalating aiptasia
issue.



Ok, I take back the intelligent comment! That is just crazy talk, getting
rid of the halimeda!

Ok, fine, give it to me? I'll trade for peppermints! (But, you gotta wait just
a bit. I've got some gravid females in my nursery tank. I'm thinking any
day i might have quite a few!)]]> Wed, 04 Jan 2006 12:26:19 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9807&PID=92161&title=just-cleaned-the-glass#92161 <![CDATA[Just cleaned the glass... : Awesome!

How do you keep your sand so white?

I don't know.  I've never vacuumed it and the only sand stirrer I have is a turd of a cucumber.  But that one cucumber keeps the top 1/4" of my sand bed turned over pretty good.  Oh, I do have a few nassarius snails too.
