How do you know how much to dose for roughly 5ppm? I can't seem to find any dosing info for saltwater tanks. The only info I see is that 1/4 tsp...
Because IO salt is designed to be used at around 1.021-1.022 (if I remember correctly as I haven't used IO salt in many years). Since you are keeping...
1) I have a similar setup and don't have/need a hole drilled in the return. Just make sure the end where the water comes out is elevated to the...
+1. The u-tube style is the only way to go in my opinion. As previously mentioned, the CPR style are unreliable. C'mon you need an aqualifter pump to...
I've had that one for over a year and am very pleased with it. The only changes I would make would be to order a 1 micron sediment filter and ditch...
One of these is your problem, and it's a free fix if you get a hold of Hydor customer service.
I have to agree. My Mag is very quiet, and when I do hear noise, it's because the flexible hose is vibrating against the side of my sump/fuge. As...
That would be my guess too.
Mermaid's Wine Cup Algae. I've had plenty of them in my tanks.
I would opt for GFO over Red Slime Remover as the GFO completely eradicated the red and green cyanobacteria in my tank. I use 2 teaspoons for a 20g...
The AC pulls heat out of the air and throws it out the back (presumably outside), while pushing the cooled air out the front (inside). Unless you...
I would do no less than 4 750s in a 72g tank. That's not nearly as much flow as you think, as I have to K1s (400gph) in a 20g high with just Zoas and...
You need a Magnesium supplement if you are using IO salt. It has low levels of Magnesium, so you will have a very hard time keeping both Calcium and...
The 5 stage unit should have an automatic shut off valve, standard. Once the 3 gallon tank is full (actually holds about 2 gallons of usable water),...
I think they will learn to love it. Just takes them a little while to "stretch the legs out".
All of those combined is about 39x tank turnover. Not even remotely close to too much. I keep Zoas and GSP in around 53x turnover. The ocean has the...
Love my eShopps PF-300 overflow. Perfect size for your tank.
Just make sure to ask for "light diffuser" when you are in the lighting department. If you ask for egg crate, they will look at you like you have two...
You should measure your Magnesium and make sure it is at least 1320 ppm (better if it's around 1400 ppm). Low Magnesium can cause you to have...
That looks like a flatworm to me.
