Awesome, congrats on the successful move!
The simple reason is because temperature directly affects pH :) As temperature goes up, pH will go down and vice versa.
Well Clowns are not known to be the most peaceful fish, being damsels and all. The Yellow Watchman would fit the bill though. Other options would...
Greg, IIRC, it can be very difficult to meet the Rainford's Goby nutritional needs and are usually not long lived in the home aquarium. I could be...
Well the LED combination is a lot different on the one you are looking at. That one will probably be around 10K output (just an educated guess) while...
So many options...any chance you could give an idea of what you were thinking?
And this should be obvious, but make sure it is fully submerged. They become increasingly noisy the more they are exposed to air. You probably...
I have not seen my Midas Blenny touch a piece of algae. From everything I have seen, this is not uncommon for them. Mine is a pig at feeding though,...
Ok. So a little under sized then. I have read that the ideal size is 1 1/4" (IIRC), but you may just need to throttle back your pump a little. I...
Agreed; no to Tangs, yes to a Blenny. Get one that is eating prepared foods though. I had a LMB starve in my 55 as it would not touch any prepared...
I only disagree in that there are some drawbacks, mainly extra energy to run it, the heat it produces, and replacing bulbs ;) If you get a...
You could, although that may not be the issue. You could always cover it up if it had no affect. What size pipe, 1 1/4"?
I'm humbled to even make the top 10...I am not expecting to win given the competition, but as I already said, this was definitely a fun contest.
This is what I was thinking as well. You neither want it to float (have the water level much higher outside the 'fuge than in), nor be suspended...
Welcome to 3reef! Please post up some pictures when you get a chance, along with details of your livestock and setup :)
Its only a matter of time for me ;)
For the records, CO2 is often used to lower pH in pools that use a high pH disinfectant (such as sodium hypoclorite aka chlorine). CO2 reacts with...
Maybe OT, maybe not, but Kevin aren't you having pH issues? If so, I would recommend taking care of that before adding GFO. Just a suggestion.
Sounds a lot like the value fixture that Reef Breeders sells (which I just bought one of myself!). What is the warranty on it?
Sump looks great, nice work! For a refractometer, I bought a generic one from either DF&S or BRS. I think it was between $50-60. I calibrate it every...
