My LFS has just received a lot of euphylia. I remember u guys saying when i first asked about frogspawn that euphylia are quite forgiving...it take this to mean hardy?
My question is will a euphylia be ok in my 3 and a half month old tank? As far as i can tell my lighting, flow, etc should meet its needs on that level. My only concern at this point is my nitrates are sitting between 15-20ppm. Plan on doing a 50% water change this weekend and hope that will bring it down a bit and would then probably look into getting it on Monday. Got a green zoanthus last week thursday, polyps finally opened up yesterday properly and its looking nice and healthy.
A follow on to the water change...is it ok to do many water changes in the space of a few days? Like doing a 50% water change 3 or 4 times over the space of a week? Reason being i am changing from the RO sea salt mix to NSW and want to try and remove all old water from tank over a period of water changes. My thoughts are...maybe wrong here, but if i do 50% water change i have 50% new water and 50% old, do another 50% water change i am then getting rid of another 25% of the old water etc? Would this be right or am i waaaaaay off here?
Started my tank by using tap water and salt mix, some poor advice given to me...and anyone who lives in EL can tell you our tap water is BAD. I am prosuming this has also been a cause for my high nitrates and GHA growth over these past few months.
Please help me out with some info. Thanks
