I can agree with this. I find that we all "pick a number" and stick to and all is good in the world. My reef is 1.025 I calibrate my refractor...
14K is pretty darn blue (too blue for me - I use 10K) if you want more than move up to 15K. I currently use three 250 watt Aqualines's and swap...
10-15 % is always a good target - keep in mind you might have displacement if you have live rock.
I believe phosphates are used plentifully in the food industry....
Your thought process is only getting you half way there, probably even less. You need to think more along the lines of the cause not the *temporary*...
Sounds good to me. Test your make-up water and continue on the same course, I suspect you will get the results you are after soon enough. Cut the...
maybe he's a zombie clown..."fresh brains" -- oh great, I've been corrupted !
You can easily frag your sponge, as it has been said keep it underwater. First thing to do is check your water, you will need pristine water before...

Yup, ugly little bugger isn’t he. Get a piece of raw shrimp in a jar and place it near that rock so that he can climb/fall in. You will catch him...
He could have moved, but I suspect he is in the rock you think he is. Keep with the glass jar and you will catch him.
What is your Magnesium level? I suspect low. As DKH rises it will force your Calcium down and you will have a hard time raising it (even with...
I agree with Ginny - I am too old to go looking for other posts. But in this case I found it. This is a 3 month old 29 gallon tank - kinda small...
well this thread got funny....but back to your crab - try the jar, just place it near a rock where the crab can climb into it after the food. Let us...
I think the best kits are Salifert, hands down. I did use the Hagen master kit at one time, it tests identicle to Salifert - plus it has all the...
