Haha we all went through it! I am still in my weekly wc habit! What test kits/digital testers are you using? They aren't giving you the right value....
Thanks yet again for your help! I am clearly preparing for a new tank!! I have the most expensive parts down (i.e. tank, lights, dry rock, return...
Honestly I would just remove the cyano the natural way... Extra chemicals are just going to complicate your situation. The cyano (and other types of...
In all honesty, I hope that someone proves me horribly wrong with this thread. Most people that I have come to know in the reefkeeping hobby are...
I think I found it: http://www.3reef.com/forums/coral-month/december-2010-cotm-valida-99665.html Yup it looks very similar. Trent lives in my...
Are you sure about this number? This calculator said about 60 lbs. Anyone other opinions?
Mystery acro? Lol I don't know, but I call it "red bug acro" because it was the biggest success. I bought it from someone who also didn't know what...

I probably should have specified that this will be a reef tank. In my current 37g reef I have surpassed a 60x turnover rate in powerheads alone. My...
I am stocking up on equipment for my new 90g that I will be setting up in a month or two. I already have a few powerheads for my 37g, but I will...
Thanks! I will let you know how it goes!
Have any pictures? If I were you, I would add an extra float valve in your sump above the water level. This way, if a snail, hermit, a star, or salt...
+1. If your tank isn't established, then they won't have enough food, and will die within a month or two. I learned this from experience. :-/
Any idea how magnesium fits in here? I know that magnesium may be a little more complex because it is related to both calcium and alkalinity. I would...

If you get a turkey baster or something, can you easily blow it off? If so, its probably red cyanobacteria. Very common. The algae itself isn't...
