I have had to upgrade/replace equipment countless times in my relatively short time in this hobby ( about 5 years) and have learned an important...
I've purchased some more equipment to get me up to speed. Bought an Ecotech MP 40 and bought a Reefbreeders Super Lux for some upgraded lighting....
I think I will treat myself to a new Vortech.
I don't worry about fresh seafood too much, as long as you don't put a ton in there. I feed my puffer and rest a raw small neck clam about 2x a week....
Look for a used one, i.e Craigslist.
Thanks evolved! I was actually thinking a female due to the coloration.
Here's another update. I have now completed the second phase of my project. I traded in the old livestock, except for the damsels for new, more reef...
I don't want to be rude, but saying they tested for "everything" does not answer the question. You should know exactly what is being tested and the...

Time for an update. After about 6 weeks contemplating my next steps, I have the rock in and have most of the old inhabitants out. The sweet lips;...
What are you trying to kill on your lr?
If you can, spot treat with a bleach solution. Or, try the super glue to smoother it.
Once the live rock is established, I'll slowly take out the bio balls. Keep in mind it's a fish only tank right now, so fluctuations aren't a major...
Ok, quick update. I bought 70lbs of Fiji rock and a bubble Magnus cone skimmer from bulk reef supply. Plan is to add the rock, then when things...
I used an Air Water Ice Mighty Mite. It was inexpensive and effective. Easy to use too.
