I posted this in your other thread: IME, you will need to buff out the scratches on acrylic, but maybe there are some better, more modern remedies....
I have similar fragment. BIt was brown with green tips when I bought it. Now, the entire backside (exposed to light) is bright green.
Alk is very ideal for acro. It's about 3.6 meq/L. 7 is too low for sps, ime. I would shoot for 9-11. I browned out some coral with lighting...
I had some come in on a frag. I threw an emerald in and it took care of it within a few days.
Not sure. If you're looking for a digital test, look into Hanna too. They seem to get good reviews. hannah calcium | eBay
IME, you will need to buff out the scratches on acrylic, but maybe there are some better, more modern remedies. As for the deposits, white vinegar...
Not really sure. I ended up passing on the offer.
Any vodka left? Take a few shots, might help you get through this. Normally I just sleep off my vodka overdoses.;)
agree. I wouldn't touch anything right now. Things are going as they should.
They're my best CUC member. I have tons of them. They reproduce quickly.
Neither 196 or 136 are too extreme. How fast did that shift occur? Did you add a new coral recently that may have possibly carried in a disease...
I agree. Are these the original bulbs?
Yeah, a dKH of 6 is really, really low. I have mine at 12, but most seem to target 9-10. What are your magnesium and calcium readings? That may...
I have montis(plating/encrusting and branching), Ponape Birdsnest (that just took off like wildfire since Sunday for some reason- I count 10-15 new...
How's the par on the sides? Looks dark. I was looking for your thread to link ealrier, but I was looking in the wrong spot, evidently.
Like I said, your best bet is to buy one and stick it on one 24" section of the tank with your rock and coral. Save up $5 a day and buy a second unit...
That would make it worse. You would be focusing the light into a smaller area.
That would effect the par and would probably cause a lot of spot-lighting. I have one of these 16' lights over my 24" tank right now. I have a 55...
The problem is the center brace. It's going to cause a shadow in the center. I would suggest buying one and putting it on one side of the tank (left...
I don't think you will be able to put anything on the left or right side of center with just one 16" (light rows are more like 12-14") light over 48...
