"every week" or "every two weeks" is arbitrary. Water Change has two purposes. To replenish trace elements and remove waste. Your...
I can't see pic 2 (just keeps spinning), but if I'm looking at right thing in pic 1 (the white branch thing)... I forget what it is called, but they...
Thought y'all might like this. I have a power monitor hooked up on every circuit in my house - so I can see real time what my house is drawing from...
I've tried the 454 and absolutely love them. Only reason I don't have them now is they were out of stock last time I needed to get them. I'll...
+1 I always order from reefcleaners if they carry what I need. These guys rock.
the page loading icon spins and spins. Takes about 30 seconds to finish loading. Then whatever page I'm viewing pops back up to the top. Not a...
I don't think LR or LS is necessary to start. The bacteria will spontaneously come into existence out of thin water (:P) I would expect (and look...
I try not to overstock my bedroom :P
my flatworm, the last I seen it, was about 2 x 3 inches. can have a real irregular shape.

That's what I'm talking about right there. Maybe you didn't swirl enough after every tedious drop. RS kits are PITA :) That is possible. The kit...
I 100% agree. Stability is king in this hobby. If you're stable at 7.8, then leave it there. Don't fight your tank, listen to it sort of thinking....
overskimming might help... some. You'd be better served getting RO/DI or buying RO/DI water. If possible, shade the tank more. And last, get a...
man, i keep a sps/lps mix too. you are absolutely right. it is an incredible challenge to get the flow "just so" in that type tank. I totally...
Kind of my point really. You shouldn't have to practice (waste) to get a test down... Mg is definitely the one most prone to user error, IMO.
coral preference can vary specimen to specimen. these aren't technical specs but life forms; you know what I mean? could be it was used to...
I do about 4 a year.
