Hello Everyone,
I need some serious advices here..About a week ago I started to add "Minute Maid Premium Orange Juice" to my tank. Since then the water is so cloudy, and the results aren't the same as I accepted. Coralline still won't grow, not even a spot..The box says it's very high in Calcium.. I complained at the LGS (local grocery store), and the manager told me I bought the wrong brand.."Tropicana" goes with FOWLR set ups, while the "Minute Maid" is for reef tanks...I think they should have post these infos on the retail box.. I just spent 2.99 (.50 off with my Bonus card) for nothing.. I drinkd the whole box at once, so at least my head turned purple and pink.

Only thing that can save you tank now man - -is a 50% water change with Sunny Delite {not the diet kind for gods sake!!!} and pull all your carbon out of the filter and put TUMS with calcium in there for at least a week

Everyone else - -we need to light a candle for Dick Headers and pray his tank makes it through the night

MILK? dude........ algea is lactose intolerant, you a$$(jk)....lol..everybody knows that! DH, i have the solution. get the industial size bottle of Dawn, and toss the whole thing into the tank. now, some people say it foams up a little bit....dont worry, its just a chemical reaction, it will pass. and if its not done foaming in bout an hour, well, something went wrong. lol

wondering if dawn power foam would work better as it's already foamed up????

I've heard bleach will get rid of soap foam as well ...good piece of knowledge to keep in the back of your mind
