Oh yeah, water chemistry def got out of whack! Been testing almost daily ever since and things are back to normal. However I still want to pursue...
I think it got my water too clean. My corals started bleaching and receding. Part of the problem was that I was using too much product (carbon and...
Haven't posted an update in a while....mainly because it's been increasing algae and decreasing coral health in my tank. I can't seem to find the...
I'll second that! ;D
You know, I thought the same thing at one point. But I dismissed it because I thought the Tunze ATO had a mechanism to prevent a back siphon. My ATO...
I actually do have a mark on my sump for the water level. That was how I knew it was dropping and/or everything is normal. Thanks!
Definitely...this was too weird of an incident to dismiss quickly. Especially since I don't have any real closure, except that it's fixed. Cheers
I really appreciate all the ideas/suggestions above. Current situation = resolved / system functioning normally The solution = I have no freaking...
No clog in drain pipe. Added salt this morning and salinity is back down again. So I have a leak then? I can see NO water around the stand...I...
Ok, I will check as soon as I get home today. Thanks for the heads up!
I'm using the Tunze Osmolator Nano. Float switch is operating normally. It's turning on because the water in my sump keeps dropping....fast enough...
ATO is turning on every ~1.5 minute. Turns on for 12-15 sec at a time. If I turn off the ATO I can physically see the water line in my sump drop....
Been just over two weeks since I stopped C/GFO, and things appear to have stabilized. Hopefully that was the culprit. With such a light bioload...
This is true, you could borrow a computer, set up the radion, and be done with it. HOWEVER, finding the right graph (for you) is the tricky and...
Yeah, you can run it without a computer, but will be limited to the preset color temps installed on the unit. However, I'm not sure how you would...
After some additional research, I'm thinking the GFO is the culprit...and not the lights. I've definitely been using ridiculously more GFO than I...
How long is your total photo period? Are the corals (and you) happy with your current program?
Been using the Radion since the beginning (tank is 6 months old). Depth is 18" and lights are 10" of the water line.
I'm currently checking ALK weekly. It fluctuates a bit (b/w 9-10) only because I don't have dosing pumps and add 2-part twice a week (5ml a dose),...
Yeah, I've been running a little less flow with the MP10 and moved the acans to the bottom (less light and less flow). Glad to hear you're having...
