Well, I know Randy, who wrote the article pink4miss posted runs it mixed with carbon in a canister filter (or "ran", not actually sure if he still...
I agree 100% this has been my experience as well. As to your poll, I would not by either. They are both unlikely to survive. I would stick with...
Looks great so far! I think that's the same paint I have on my 29. I was always quite happy with it. Congrats :beer:
Sort of, but you'll want to keep them trimmed way back. If they creep up and you trim them, there can still be little bits left in the rock that...
Just to add... I forgot to mention, if using in a canister, you may need a little more as it might not be quite as efficient. I probably used...
Your welcome :) Also, in the summer, just pick up something like one these (or maybe two even) and point it at the water surface. A few can easily...
Yeah, I mostly agree, with Cheryl, although I don't like the term "chamical warefare" as I think it is misleading :lol: Regardless, though most LPS...
What a great nano. Congrats, not super overpacked, but plenty to look at and is very visually appealing.
The corals you described are fine as long as they are not touching. Actually, a lot of soft corals seem to be able to touch even, I think the Kenya...
I used to run it in a canister filter, it actually worker really well. I had to make my own filter bag though. The filter bags they sell have holes...
Right, what you describe sounds like the water temp is being set by the lighting, not the heater. i.e. the lights are off, the temp drops a bit, and...
In your first post, you said your heater was 77? and the light raises it to 82? So, if the heater is 77, it must get down to 77? and then rise to...
BTW, table1 is what I am referring to. I don't care if you believe Dr. Shimek's theories, but the fact is reefs are tropical and the temps tend to...
Shackman, I just noticed you said to turn the heater down :o Seriously? You don't want it getting much lower than 77. Your corals may live, but...
Well, I'll go gainst the grain on this one; it shouldn't be an issue if your corals seem happy. Most people will say it's bad, but have no idea why....
Mostly this is just nitrogen bubbles. It's generally a sign your denitrifying bacteria is alive and well.
Is the black carib sea "Hawaiiam Black" It looks like it's .1mm-3mm. 3mm is getting a little large, but people use lager and it seems to be ok....
I'm certainly not an expert on the subject, but I though this usually this dosn't happen from hosting in a nem? Of course, an LTA isn't a natural...
Sure thing Steve, I can't wait to hear more myself :) As too bite boy,poor kid, you've gotta give him cred for putting up with it though.
hmm... that could be a good call :) Are they hosting in a coral?
