What you have to realize is that you're doing an 8 gallon water change. I don't know how big your tank is, so I'm going to assume 36 gallons for the...
The ATmega2560 is a more expensive chip than the one in the current RA, so you probably wouldn't get it at the same price as the current RA. It's...
What size tank? I wouldn't recommend the blenny, TBH. Lots of people have them starve to death once the algae is gone, since they're very particular...
Ah, I knew about crank's program, but I didn't know about a hardware update. Is that going to be an add on package to the current system, or does it...
You mean software updates?
+1 to Spectrapure. I got the MaxCap (249 on the sale page), but the CSP-DI should work for you, which is 145 on the sale page.
Hold on, isn't silicone 1 the one that's not safe for tanks? I always confuse that. But if it's the right one, using it for baffles will be ok....
It depends. What do your levels test at, before and about an hour after the water changes? Test kits are required, regardless as to whether you...
So do I, and I'll probably try it some day. I think it'll definitely help with keeping other filter feeders alive, since you're not skimming out...
If you can't get it at a grocery store, Petco will have Ocean Nutrition nori, presoaked with garlic.
Dude, 2 T8 bulbs aren't nearly as strong as your lighting.
I had a conversation about this on another thread a little while ago. It's possible that a large enough sponge (don't quite know the necessary size,...
They're only different because one refers to the process, while the other refers to something performing the process. The difference between corals,...
You can also use the brown gorilla glue, but it has to be completely dry before you put it in the water (24hr+ sometimes). Not good for corals, but...
All photosynthetic corals will absorb some nitrates, but not enough to have a significant impact on water chemistry.
bump....
Well, chaeto will add oxygen to the water, while removing nitrates and phosphates. Phosphates aren't too much of an issue for fish, but nitrates...
The thing is, overstocking isn't just one thing. It's everything mentioned above. If any happen, you're overstocked. Lack of oxygen, lack of...
Bristleworms are ok to have in the tank - they help with cleanup.
Distilled is OK (better than RO only units), but not as pure as RODI. You can usually buy RODI water from the LFS, but there's no guarantee they'll...
