Yeah... Check out the Neptune Systems Apex and Apex Lite controllers. With the I/O breakout box you can control and interface 6 "switch" devices...
I'm looking at the apex system as well... I read something about Neptune Systems working on a Vortech control module, that would seal the deal I...
I have the Water General on my 58 reef tank for ATO. It's a good unit, well made. no meters, and no special DI resins, just regular 2 part mixed bed...
Gexx: I said it would work for a fish only tank, I didn't really say it would be "good". many people use treated tap water for their tanks. They add...
It's not lazy, it's nature. Time is a construct of man, and a fairly recent one at that. Fish, corals, and other creatures in nature don't abide by...
Gexx: It's a canister filter. You can get sediment, carbon, and DI cartridges for it. It's only a 2 stage, so it most likely was used just for...
Looks good. Oh, and it's Frog Spawn. Because the ends look like frog eggs. Welcome to 3reef. -Doug
*shrug* I had cyano growing on the inside of my MP40W. I had it growing in my return lines. I had it growing on rocks directly in the flow of the...
Without DNA you don't really know what they are. Today they look like the "GBP" colormorph... Zoanthus Sp. is about as exact as you can really get...
it's a maybe, with supplemental lighting needed.

Now my timers times are accurate again. The fish have just been getting up "late" for a few months...
Ah yes, didn't see that. Gexx: Tell your parents they need to drink better water and get them to buy a decent Ro/DI unit for under the sink, or for...
Not at all a fan of base rock. Aside from the density it's really an aesthetics consideration. I'll use some here and there for the unseen...
Oh, the LFS I am buying through spent 10 minutes yelling at the poor guy from the distributor he uses. Apparently AGA makes their larger tanks as...
careful spending a lot of money on zoa frags. I've had entire colonies change color on me. The color is entirely the product of the internal...
what's your alk at? Get the nitrates down a bit. Zoas will grow faster with slightly dirty water, like 3-5ppm as their internal symbiotic...
I feed all my LPS/soft corals that will take them mysis shrimp. The only ones I have not observed eating are Xenia, purple mushrooms and sarco...
In that small a tank I would avoid any/all obligate feeders. A coral banded shrimp, a clown, and one or two other small "nano" fish would be a...
To OP: On my 58g w/ sump I replace about 1.5gal per day. Air temp is a factor, so is relative humidity. In very dry climates you'll see more...
