True. I didn't know there were toxic types of bryopsis. I tried.
surfrgirl61187- I just found out that a "foxface lo" will devour hair algae and bryopsis like there's no tomorrow. I've called all the lfs's in my...
You want to read about refugiums and try to change it into one, I did it with that sump, it was a bit tricky but it works. Basically you would use a...
For now I took that floodlight bulb out and replaced it with a 20 watt compact fluorescent regular house bulb, which is like a 75watt. Should I...
I really wanted to do something like that but was and still am nervous about glass drilling, not to mention I can't find the right sized bits at...
So what should I do???? (Aside from getting the RO/DI) I've had the lights off in the DT for two weeks, before that I was running them about 4hrs...
My goal was to get the cheato going and the two crappy 40 watt bulbs I was using wasn't doing anything so I got this 23watt compact flourescent,...
I have the same problem however I think I can barely squeeze a 29gal tank in when I do go from my wet/dry(that I turned into a ghetto fuge). I also...
Lol thanks, yea I don't think I'd want to CLR my pumps or anything. I can't believe as many men are on this site, and really, people in general,...
How long has your tank been set up? What are your water parameter? What kind of filtration do you have? What kind of lighting? etc etc
So no one else has any input on how I should continue with this madness???
I have the same wet/dry and also have spent many many hours trying to figure out how to do this safely without an overflow box. I never figured it...
Cool! Now you can finally have a big tank!
Yea that looks like it makes more sense. Keep in mind that bio balls are nitrate factories so the sooner the refugium the better!
250 isn't very much gph so that's probably why it's not working right. I tried to run a 296pgh on my skimmer and it would not work at all. You...
You can get a 30gal aquarium to use for a sump instead, then you can make a fuge with it too, and everything will fit in it.
No, you have several more weeks. You should have 0 Ammonia, 0 nitrite & 0 or less than 20 nitrate when you even think about starting. It usually...
You could put some cheato in the fuge if you want, but really you need to just be waiting till you see some nitrites register, then go to 0 then some...
I don't even see any pumps in the sump, if there are, are they really THAT big to require that much water to keep them submerged? I'm confused.
I don't mean to change the subject of this post but... So then what's the point of the bioballs if they're just floating in the water? Have you...
