I'm not quite sure how, but a guy locally got his hands on one of those already and he really likes it. Started pulling good skimmate after 10 hours.
Does neptune systems plan to add a salinity module / probe to the apex? Digital Aquatics already has that out for the Reefkeeper Elite.
Cool - they're amusing to watch IMO. As long as they're fed, they're OK. Mine can turn into a roving band of gangsters and go after my ceriths if...
Sounds like a porous rock. I couldn't begin to count the holes in mine.
Hermits are good to have. Just don't overdo them. 15-20 in the 180 would be good.
That's about bizarre. Surprised either the stand hasn't collapsed, or tank hasn't cracked.
I'm sure your critters will be fine, 74 isn't too major. Heaters suck. I am lucky that my undersized heater never really needs to kick in, and...
He's typically pretty fair, but you can always cut back on the order. He ships lots of extras too.
:clapping: Someone who shares my sentiments on the post. Relieved that someone else feels the same way.
Agreed. Airstones have their time and place. Temporary holding bins for example. Other than that, they're for freshwater tanks with sunken ships...
I would send an e-mail to John Maloney at reefcleaners.org. They make very good recommendations for cleanup crews, their livestock is very healthy...
That would be dry.
Are you wet skimming? If you are getting evap, wet skimming (removing salt water), plus salt creep and only adding fresh in, you would be out of...
The purple firefish are beautiful. I don't plan to cover my tank though, so they're out for me.
I use an old fashioned, cheap, no electronics to fail glass thermometer. It was $3 and suction cups into the sump. I will soon have a reefkeeper...
76-82 is a decent range, 78 being ideal. I wouldn't go lower, and wouldn't go higher, and it shouldn't fluctuate (key). Any higher, critters will...
Your tank shouldn't be getting really hot. Most all fish and corals are "fragile" if it gets really hot, so if that's an actual concern, you should...
The binders in the frozen food quite often contain phosphates. If I don't have to add it, I won't. I lose nothing in this strainer.
I strain - I picked up a small strainer at Target for $2
That's what I do, and so far my NO3 stays under 10. No adverse affects so far. I had a light cyano bloom (few spots here and there) which went away...
