Interesting. Thanks for the tips, guys. My cousin had the tank stable for 5 or 6 years on tap water, but it never hurts to improve the overall...
No, I think you did. I just couldn't tell what they were looking at that list. Kind of hard to tell, I guess. That sponge you saw in another thread...
Since I have a very small vocabulary, I don't have a better word for these things. They almost look like little insects, and I have no idea what they...
Got it. It's easy to get carried away. My dKH dropped while on was on vacation to dKH = 6. It's up to 8 now. Should I try to get it any higher than...
Do you have a good recommendation for an RODI unit that would be appropriate for a 90 gallon tank? Do these just fill up a bucket over the course of...
Corailline, what should I be shooting for in terms of dkH? 8-11? Once the alk is stable, how often would I feed the acropora? Would I feed the other...
Does the Red Sea kit require a supply of DI water? I will check into the alkalinity kits.
I noticed my acropora were extending their mesenterial filaments and then found this spot at the base which is receding. I noticed two aiptasia right...
Oh, ok, good to know I don't need to dose both of them in equal quantities. I'll try just dosing the alkalinity component. I'm using the Tetratest...
Yes, is that insane? I'm following the instructions of my cousin who had the tank for several years.
Oh, and I'm using Seachem Matrix inside the sock filter in my sump. It's in a little mesh bag. I'm not sure how much that helps with the issues we...
My (rather old) Eheim seems to be finicky and non-repeatable in how much food it delivers. After refilling, if I'm off in adjusting the opening by so...
Thanks Va Reef. I'm using ESV Bi-Ionic buffer to adjust alkalinity. I think the calcium issue stems from the fact that my SeaChem reef salt puts the...
Amazing photos and amazing corals. Thank you for sharing!
I'm using Seachem reef salt, and I end up with a calcium concentration close to 600 ppm. However, my alkalinity is too low at 5 dKH. If I use a 2...
Thanks very much!
Hello all, Quick background. I inherited a 6 year old tank about 6 weeks ago, and everything has been moving along splendidly. I went on vacation...
I visited the very, very cool New England Aquarium today. They had a number of beautiful reef tanks. I noticed one tank was loaded with aiptasia (at...

Well, fortunately Kessil designed a really nice board. Coating the board is probably a necessity with all the salt water around. I wasn't too worried...
