So after much soul searching and final approval by the children, my 125 Fowlr is being converted back to a reef tank. We had sort of hit a rut, where new additions weren't playing nicely or being played with nicely. I had lost my emperor and clown trigger a few months ago to fish on fish violence. All of the new additions met the same fate or were intervened with before it happened. This meant taking "George" our porcupine puffer/family dog back to the LFS.
So now my decision is when removing the pests(worms/aptasia) on my LR should I try to do it naturally by adding in predators to the pests or should I just go for broke and dip the LR and start from scratch. This tank has been up for 4 yrs. Also the substrate, dump it, leave it or add in some more, it's currently about 2" of fine sand. I probably ran one of the most over filtered Carnivore tanks.
Suggestions, advice, and criticism are welcome.
Pics will follow shortly.
