Without a TDs meter, you will have no idea when it's time to change the DI resin. Is it vertical, or horizontal DI canisters? If they are horizontal,...
Hope that helped.
Apple computers defy logic. ;D
You've got the right idea. Keep topping off with saltwater until you have your salinity where you want it. Just use saltwater around 1.025 SG for...
Who?
Spirulina, Spirulina, Spirulina. Make sure your flake food has a lot of Spirulina in it as this will dramatically increase the fish's immune system.
You molt? :o;D Sometimes a molt will not go well. Sadly, that seems to be the most common cause of death for my hermits.
Stop dosing Magnesium. ;D Just let it go down naturally through consumption (coral growth) and water changes. 1600 is high, but not alarmingly high....
As long as you don't exceed the current rating of the outlet when you have both the fan and light fixture running, you can safely add the fan.
I run 2 Koralia #1s on a 20g high tank. With them, the skimmer, and HOB filter I have approximately 53x turnover rate. I only have Zoas/Palys and...
Wow, a long-time member. Welcome back!
Huh?! What berating? Looks like a non-inflammatory question was asked. Was the original post by SwissSwiss changed at some point, because I see...

You need to check the hardness of the well water. If the hardness is more than 1 (grains per gallon), you will need a water softener or you will...
Lowering the phosphate too quickly can bleach your corals. You should start with no more than 1/2 the recommended dosage during the first few weeks.
I have this one too (about 3 years) and it works perfectly. I don't know why anyone would want to spend more money on a refractometer, especially...
Sounds like the Chaeto is dying off from a lack of nitrate or phosphate in your system.
All very good advice. You can use Amquel+ to detoxify ammonia and nitrite to a safe level for fish. It doesn't cycle your tank, but does allow the...
Corailline is correct. Anything other than 1.009-1.010 SG is a complete waste of your time for trying to treat/prevent ich.
Looks pretty white to me. White with a hint of blue, but not washed out. Too much blue and your yellows, greens and oranges don't look right. Here's...
