What kind of lighting?
So the tank was moved a few weeks ago? Wonder if a mini-cycle occurred/is occurring. might explain the anemones health, or lack of.
Are there any fish or coral in the tank? If not, probably not a huge deal. If so, do as suggested above. I lost a coral in about 10 minutes when I...
Yeah, it's been a slow process. That reverse monti and birdsnest has shown the most growth. Everything is coloring and encrusting slowly; nothing...
Messing around with my new camera. I have a lot to learn: [IMG] [IMG] [IMG] [IMG] [IMG] [IMG] [IMG] [IMG] [IMG] [IMG] [IMG] [IMG] [IMG]...
Finally got a new impeller and the skimmer online. I also got some true GFO back online.
Yes, ATO. I was thinking A(uto)T(op-off)S(system) in my head.
I have a 20 gallon full of SPS. So yes, it can be done. I also have a sump, skimmer, phosphate reactor and chaeto for filtration. I have an ATS to...
Cool. Yep, that was Acropora cerv. It's one of the two major "reef builders" and is very endangered.
6500 k is good. Red slime in the sump isn't horrible. Accomplishes the same goal as chaeto.
Love the Tanked guys, scripted or not. is that a Staghorn Coral at the Red Sea booth that they have growing upside down? (Acropora cervicornis)
Mine is Green under halides. It came from LEDs where it was bright red, turned pale/brown and is now coloring up to green. The tips have a pink hue....

I can't help fix it, but I will add that I know of 3 local reefers whose units had the same issue. They didn't fix it.
First two are yellow Lab Cichlids. One of the most common/demanded in the trade. 2nd might be Tropheus duboisi. If it is, they prefer vegies. 3rd...
They are all cichlids. They can be aggressive, they breed easily. You can add tiny bits of salt (do research) to help bring out color. IMe, keep the...
My SPS are under 250 watt Phoenix bulbs with Hamilton ballast/reflector. They didn't grow for 5 months and were pale. I was feeding one fish every...
Welp, I clipped a tree today with my brand new Ram 1500. Looks like the reef controller idea will be shelved for a bit. Thank you all for the...
Will I be able to use a high water float switch to cut of the return in the case of a potential flood scenario? Can you run lighting on it without a...
I've found out the hard way that corals need more than light and quality water. The are both a must. But there is something to be said for DOC....
