  1. Table

    Zooxanthellae take in ammonia given off as waste by the polyp and return aminoacids...so more fish equal more ammonia, does this equal the more coral you can add to a tank? Zoo's convert co2 and h2o into o2 and carbs-polyps use o2 for respiration and gives co2 to the zoo's....so is extra co2...

    Today as I was cleaning my sandbed I noticed many little bugs (which i took to be copepods) and worms lving in the sandbed. Does this mean that I know have live sand because these critters are everywhere and if so should i disturb the sandbed if its only a very shallow one? I'd also like to know...
