    Atb protein skimmer 1860

    Atb protein skimmer 1860

    I've never used one, so here's a bump for your question. I do want to say that with being designed for tanks up to 1000g, your system might not...

    Comparing Salt Mixes

    Urgent Too much flow??

    Certainly wouldn't be too much flow, then. As Vinny stated, clownfish behavior is unique. They may need a bit of time to adapt to the changing...

    Something weird going on...

    What ya think?

    Yes, Phosban is GFO. No, GFO and calcium cannot be mixed in the same reactor. GFO and carbon can, but you must be careful, there. Perhaps your friend...

    What ya think?

    Comparing Salt Mixes

    When I do use artificial salt, it's always IO; can't say I've ever seen a brown film on anything. It's always mixed crystal clear and left no residue...

    Comparing Salt Mixes

    Not really, if you keep everything in perspective. First, no one mix is that much different from the rest (or NSW, for that matter) or it couldn't...

    ID these new critters?
