yeah, I can get to some of it, but my rock is super porous and it is attached "down in there". I dont really have much of any algae on the sand bed itself, but you may be on to something with the turkey baster. I do have a ton of flow in the tank, but those little nooks and crannies in the rock def would trap stuff. Perhaps not coincidentially one of the worst areas is right under one of my main circ pumps ( have two opposing CP40 Cross flows blowing the length of the tank....there is a TON of flow in there, and the are only running at 40%.....maybe its time to crank them up a bit and get my hands in the tank. Yeah maybe a few mexican turbos are in order
. I dont have much in the way of corals at this point (i really wanted to get this HA in order before adding any sensitive corals). I guess I will just continue with the chemical warfare and add to it more manually pulling (I find a toothbrush works pretty good), and some additional eaters.
Perhaps a lawnmower Blenny????
