I don't remove molts anymore. If the tank is larger than a 55 gallon, the molt couldn't create enough dead material to throw things off. Live and...
That depends upon what preparation you use. For me, IO contained only about 350 ppm. Cal. That doesn't match seawater levels. I go for about...
Good advice I think. Also, if you have the need to increase both alk and ca, never increase both dramatically during the same 24 hour period. If...
I think you made a good decision. While T5s are great, MH lamps provide a shimmer you can't get with flourescent tubes. It might not be a bad...
Does your watch glow in the dark? :)
Reef Aquarium Water Parameters by Randy Holmes-Farley - Reefkeeping.com See now if this wasn't such a great place I'd ask you for $5 for this tip....
I'm not aware of a chemical additive that does the trick, while posing no threat to other tank inhabitants. I'm afraid there may be no shortcuts in...
That's how I did it. Check out this old thread.
Those red zoa's overflowing that plug are beautiful. I hope those are parents of mine! :) That pajama cardinal looks like it could use a cup...

Coiled denitrators need no feeding that I know of. They use the anaerobic counterparts of the aerobic nitrobacter and nitrosomonas bacteria that...
Our coralline is spelled differently. :)
Good stuff, Bogie! All's looking vibrant and healthy. Nice coralline on the glass. :)
What water parameters are you referring to? How long have you had the tank?
While I'd trust the GE name, this isn't an RO/DI. It's an RO unit only. For the $50 or so bucks you'd spend to bring a DI to the mix, why not just...
For me it was magical. Your mileage may vary. :)
If you submerge the free end of the hose to be attached, in a cup of boiling water for 20 seconds, and it doesn't open up enough to allow attachment,...
Haven't read it. I'll pick it up.
Yeah, Mission. I used to read a lot more than I do currently. I'd be lying if I blamed it on work entirely. I like these fine numbers and in the...
A few myths here. First, a GFCI doesn't need a ground to do what it does. It opens the circuit if there exists an excess of 4 to 6 mA of current...
