I did the initial fill of my 300 with Oceanic with no problems. My local LFS guy likes it. My 210 lives on it. Normally I use either IO or Reef...
Hi CA is supposed to be hard on Zoos. I've been told by a moderately reliable source (I only double check him once or twice ;) ) that 450 is the max...
It's nice having unlimited $$$. ;D
I found a guy on E-bay out of KY that builds custom unfinished stands for cheaper than I could do it myself. They also follow fish shows around for...
$.02 just because we don't know it doesn't mean it's no good. I've used other "off" brands in the past with no ill effect.
Gee, I think the jury is still out on Silica based sand. Aragonite does have the added advantage of adding CA to the tank and additional buffering....
I have Aragonite playsand from Home Depot in my sump. I pulled 150 lbs of it out of my 210 and replaced it with crushed coral. I think it's better...
I'm using a modified Randy's mix and currently not even dripping it in. I toss a measured amount of A&C in once a day. (I am going to set up drip...
Never heard of it.
I'll quote you on that in a couple years when you pick up your 500. ;)
You're welcome. :) Neat idea, isn't it? Too bad it won't work for me. I'm 100% mechanical on my top off and don't want to risk crudding out the...
OK you got me curious so I double checked. Aragonite will begin to dissolve at a ph of 7.7 or less. Most reactors run at 6.5 to 6.7. Lower than that...
Yeah, he is very cool looking. I've kicked the eel habit, but most will take to Krill with patience. Remember, most have just fair eyesight. The...
Unless I'm missing something, if he is running RODI it shouldn't be acidic enough to dissolve aragonite, but as the saying goes water will move...
Nope, it's twisted around in the dark and stamped in mico print. I got it from my LFS guy. I'll ask him the next time we talk. In the time being I...
Wow, Rick is only a little over 100 miles from me. That is pretty neat. It might be worth a road trip at some point. Both of your green houses are...
365? Cool. You know there is a problem with tanks that size... After a while they don't look that large and then where do you go? You know your...
Nice Link John. So I'm short about 350 Snails and untold Crabs on the 300. ;D
The one from the bottom of the used parts box. You know that make and model don't you? I dunno, I'll see if I can read it on Monday when I get back...
OK I started the mod process, but before I rigged the becket I let it run in it's natural state. You know, for a medium sized tank (up to 125 or so)...
