Agree, nitrate is nothing to worry about, but the ammonia is. The question is how did it get that high, typically ammonia is handled readily by...
another thing to consider is Sympodium sp. I think it would fit the bill, based on your description. As to zoanthids, even a small cut can release...
Congrats, both are quality stuff. You will be happy with them I think :thumb_up:
I agree, for your price range, either 3xPAR30s, or a diy kit.
+1, although, I'm not sure of the term overkill, it just won't do anything except overflow and cause headaches... It's very easy to change a large...
Anything buffer adds alk, whether or not it says so. pH is ONLY a function of CO2 and alkalinity. CO2 is controlled by partial pressure of CO2...
Yes, lumatec and gallaxy make selectable wattage ballasts in that range. Some of the websites have drop downs to select the specific ballast and all...
Acanthastrea rotundoflora is Large Polyp Stony (LPS) coral, very similar to Acanthastrea echinata, however is less common in both the ocean and in...
Yes, sorry, I've been off the grid for the last day and a half. I'll add a description when I am on an actual computer.
Yup, it is a good salt IMO. Very high in ca, do you keep stony corals?
Australomussa rowleyensis? I have to think about the other :)
Echinophyllia Aspera Moseleya latistellata Pavona maldivensis mines not a chalice though ;)
I thought someone would guess that. I do have some, but that would be too easy. For comparison, this is echinata: [IMG]
Did you increase your kalk all at once, or slowly? What were you dosing before? Definitely could be alk swings due to alk swings. Also, do look...

Do you run GAC, GFO? Do water changes? How much salt, how much, how often? Do you monitor ca and alk? How often? have you changed test kits?...
There are a lot of great SPS tanks, and really, if I had to pick one, I wouldn't be able to decide. So, I'll go with something different. I really...
The best way is, as mentioned, to use a custom white balance. I wouldn't do this in the camera though, do it in software. Take a picture of...
I don't think it will be much different really. I tend to just put things in buckets or individual bags, based on whether or not I want them to...
GAC would be top priority, but carbon and GFO can certainly be run in the same reactor. It is theoretically better to use them separately, but many...
