The only LFS within 60 miles uses API so no. I was looking for something more definitive than a color match.
I have also found a trend in most of the feedback I find with google. It seems a lot of it is from any year up to 2010. Any updated models or fixed...
Yes I have seen a lot of negative reviews but figured it wouldn't hurt to ask. Anyone have specific reasons or experience? My eyes are terrible at...
Hey all: My tank has been reading high nitrates for some time and nothing I do seems to lower them. By high I mean hovering around 50 with...
A filter sock would make it much quieter but the drawback is having to change it out every 3 or so days to avoid a nitrate problem.
Sorry for the loss. Sucks that some fish just die sometimes. I have had the same luck with yellow tangs. One of the easiest fish to keep but I...
They had one of these at Premium Aquatics a few weeks back. A guy asked the cashier if they were around 5-6 hundred dollars. Haha.
Used to have one of those. You're lucky to have it eating frozen so quickly from what I've experienced. You might switch up the diet every so often...
Think I got it figured out. My rodi unit was not treated for chloramines. Thanks to those who brought that to my attention. Went to get some water...
Thanks for the video that is an interesting thought. I believe my RODI system treats for chlorine but I will double check. It is a typhoon 5 stage...
Also I took the powerheads out to inspect and found this weird brown slime stuff.
I would not consider myself an expert coral fragger (if that's a word?) by any means but I believe you would be fine. I had a colony of purple tip...
I am leaning towards my rodi water having ammonia traces but if so why would the ATO water have less ammonia than the new saltwater?
Here is today's tests. Far left is newly mixing saltwater (~3 days mixing), middle is ATO tank, and right is display.
Son of a...just made a big order yesterday
If he has the money to buy all that equipment (controller, ato if not a DIY) why not just buy a bigger tank with that money? Easier and more stocking...
The plan is to try this but I find it highly unusual that it would read 4ppm ammonia after two days of mixing with no lid.
I have heard of bad batches of Reef Crystals which is what I use but never anything testing more than 1ppm of ammonia. I let it sit and mix for...
Yeah I am lost..I took the two koralias out and vinegar soaked them just in case but now I tested the new water before even putting them back in and...
Yes no lid is on while I aerate new water. I have 2 koralia nanos (425 gph I believe) aerating the water. About 12 gallons of water in a 14 gallon...
