glad it's doing well for you. Many of us here try to steer new RO/DI buyers towards the name brands that are reliable & have really good track...
I would add 10 more gallons of RO/DI water to the mix, it's half a cup of salt per gallon so 10 cups = 20g at roughly 1.025 salinity
the cyano is thriving off some excess nutrient in your tank. Test kits may not show problems since the nutrient is being absorbed by the cyano....
knowing these details, def go for the 90gpd still, it can't hurt to have the faster production in your case. If I was between another brand...
actually the 90gpd would be perfect for you, it's not as fast as you think. AZ can comment on how they will measure that 90gpd (many variables will...
Thanks for the clarification AZ, I forgot that the hose adapter worked on my faucet because I had already installed an adapter on the faucet for my...
they come with a faucet adapter, just screw it on your kitchen/bathroom faucet. Turn the cold water on, the yellow "waste" line goes into your...
get a refurb SpectraPure 90gpd for $120+shipping, you won't be dissapointed and you'll be set, 5th one down: Untitled Document I have one and...

I'm trying to find yours in the pic. If it's a large feather duster than it would be best put in the sand. For mine, I was told to bury the end of...
+1 on that, nicely put. Those that "chase" the perfect params can sometimes end up causing more hurt than help. 7.8 should be fine as long as it's...
xenia is one of those weird corals, it can thrive uncontrollably in some systems and other can't keep it. I had some that did great and then one day...
great job! I am also looking for some type of cabinet to put my 10g reservoir in and "fish stuff". I always though that a company should be making...
that tank sounds like a beast at 450g with 110fuge, I'd love to see pics! For the problem you're having, it sounds pretty common where Tangs get...
Sadly in this & many hobbies, the stores are out to make $ so not sure why he said it was good to go if there was a reading of NI or AM. But who...
