 Dust on my LR Not sure if this should be in this thread or not. But all my rock has a coating of whiteish green dust all over it. Is it something burroughing through my rock and this is dust from the rock or is it something else. If I use my turkey baster and blow it it goes everywhere. I am not going to do that again don't want to stir it up to much. Is this okay?  |

| Re: Dust on my LR Not sure what the cause is at all. I only have a small 14 gallon nano. with 5 hermit, a emerald crab, a fire shrimp, 1 snail, and a damsel. Should I blow it off? If it is dietris I don't want it to spike my tank. As it is my ammonia is 0 nitrite is 0 but my nitrates are a little high. Not terrible. Will blowing it off be okay? |

| Re: Dust on my LR I'd just blow it off. Its already in the water so its not going to hurt anything. At least if it gets mixed up in the water it might get picked up by your filtration system or settle onto the substrate instead of the rocks. If you let detritus build up on your rocks you'll be sorry. Your rocks will wind up slimy or hairy depending on which type algae decides to grow on it. At least in the substrate you'll have some worms or other critters that may help dispose of it. |
