So the tank is coming along nicely. Reduced my feeding some due to a cyano outbreak and took a little more care with the rodi rinse before feeding....
It basically comes down to this: Is using a QT tank smart? Yes Will it be safer for your display tank and fish? Yes Is it required? Not in the least...
We are at cross roads with our hobby. It would be a shame if all of the advancements that we have seen over the past 25 years are lost forever. The...
Is it near any other corals like frogspawn or torch? My frogspawn and torch will randomly retract when a fish grazes them at times and other times...
Opinion on what for what tank, what coral, fowler or reef? There's a lot of criteria that goes with picking one over another.
Awesome really cool to watch
Been a while since I've given an update. Caught 3 of the 4 remaining chromis but the bully remains. He's actually stopped being aggressive and has...
They're easy fish but some get aggressive. Started with 5 and one became a bully killed 2.
Stupid phone submitted it before I was done. You said you are running the carbon and gfo in a reactor, are they in the same chamber? If so that can...
Forgot the gfo part. Monthly on gfo as well isn't necessary either. It's dependant on load. If your tank naturally has low phosphates it takes less...

While it sounds like a mini-cycle is the primary culprit you also want to ensure that you have plenty of water surface agitation to help increase...
Definitely... Reseal now and avoid the headache later.
Go with 2 MP40s you will not be disappointed. Reefcrest mode is great at generating random flow and current in the tank and with 2 you can set them...
Thank you. I fell in love with the open concept during my freshwater years and the wife and I felt this was a good compromise between my space for...
Got the 5 stage RODI unit all set up and I got my IO salt from BRS so I'm going to make up a 10 gal batch and see how it goes. Reading 1 tds on the...
This. Get the 3155 if you can. Takes 5 minutes to set up. Has 2 sensors with the primary being an optical sensor.
I got the Tunze Osmolator. Plug and play out of the box and the primary sensor is an optical sensor less prone to error over a float switch.
