Get a Neptune Aquacontroller 3 or Apex and get the iPhone app (Aquanotes) you can use to control the controller from your phone. It also allows you...
Yeah good color combo, and great bulbs. Grim knows his stuff, and is quite a hero as well for answering what is essentially the same question for...
+1, good list. One thing to keep add though is if you need/want to use the space under the tank to store stuff. Totally depends on your setup, some...
The DI is the only way to guarantee zero TDS. RO membranes are generally only something like 90-95% efficient I believe so you usually will get...
Awesome, looking forward to seeing some pics of it. I think it's hilarious how hermits love to climb the glass like that as well, mine do that too.
Congrats, they are good units. The two indispensible additions IMO are a dual TDS meter, I like having one before and after the DI stage so you...
SPS do not need to be fed, I wouldn't feed them until you understand what they may potentially eat (based on species etc). There are some potential...
There is an arguement that can be made by your "saving" it that you are encouraging the fish store to continue improperly treating their animals as...
OK, so the first one was a small clown, how small? AFAIK smaller clowns have a lower survival rate in captivity. It might have been a natural death....
Why not try vodka dosing if you're concerned about controlling algae, then you DO know what you're putting in the tank. Although unless you are...
I just use the bulk calcium, alkalinity and magnesium supplements from bulkreefsupply.com they are much cheaper (you're not paying for fancy...
I don't know for sure if it will work long term but I read about this idea a while ago and considered it for my 30g stocking. I really like the idea...
I wish they would publish what is actually in their pouches. I don't like throwing mystery magical filters into my tank, a lot of times they are...
I personally think you may be over-reacting. You are operating on an assumption here, I guess you could try throwing the star in the sump for a while...
2 of those tangs can grow to be at least 1/4 of the tank length. You might be able to stock this way for a short time (in terms of the overall...
How much head loss does the return pump have to contend with? I don't think you generally need to push more than 5x to 10x max of the display tank...
I think it depends what you're trying to keep at bay. If you're talking about an encrusting/branching coral then an aggressive coral like...
I think there are a couple considerations to make. If you're talking about adding a HOB skimmer onto your display then you're negating some of the...
I don't think it's worth worrying about snails in Vortechs. I don't think they can cause a lot of damage even if they get stuck for a bit. I wouldn't...
Are you talking about the montipora capricornis (at least that's what it looks like to me)? The orangish coral in the picture? In my area selling a...
