Well, you can run a skimmer 24/7 or not; it really depends on your style. Most people will advise to run it 24/7. If you run it, say, 6 hours a day,...
Yeah, the tank has a bit of noise to it when you're close, but once you get more than a couple feet away it's quiet. I would add more water to the...
Are we able to get the WiFi attachment too?
I would turn off the skimmer when feeding marine snow, phytoplankton or any other planktonic foods. I wouldn't when I feed the fish.
+1 on some kind of macro.
Exactly. The cheapest unflavored. This means the one that comes in a gigantic plastic jug (usually 2+ liters), costs like 8 bucks, tastes absolutely...
Yes, a guess is better than a crapshoot. But you have to take into account the lower graph of efficiency, especially past the point where they...
He has a 1400VA power supply, you're looking at a 750 VA power supply. That implies a difference of almost double the run time. The efficiency also...
Good call, xmetal. Too bad it stops at 45w load though.
Well, VA is fairly simple to convert to watts, once you know the power factor of the backup unit. I think they're usually between .9 and .98. It's...
Following. This issue confuses the bejesus out of me, since VA can't be converted to watt/hours AFAIK.
Depends on the species.
Ah, I've never heard that one before lol. </sarcasm> Stop being a hypocrite, then you can say it.

First, there's not an unlimited amount of live rock on Earth. If there were, we wouldn't be on a giant singular rock floating around in an even-more...
Yours is way low. Usually, 8 - 8.4 is normal. In other news, zombieism is breaking out on older-than-usual threads!
It took much longer to type it than to think it. I'd be willing to wager you spent more time thinking about your post than I did on mine. I think...
Ironic, that you think removing their habitat (live rock) is ok, but removing them isn't.
You could just hold off on ammonia for now, then once you know you'll have livestock in, say, 2 weeks, dose a bit once then. If you keep adding it,...
