Pink sand dollar growing well:

Was bored today and took some shots of the tank. I'm really liking the growth and color I'm getting from the phoenix 14k. I think I have the most efficient CPR bak pak skimmer out there. This is a weeks worth of crud in between water changes. Tea anyone? Ricordea shot W/flash With out

Montipora is my favorite type of SPS and I know I'm not alone. Post them up everyone, of all types!! Here are my current favorites: Atlantis sunny delight danae Red Hot Chili Pepper/seasons greetings Pink sand dollar orange "cap" and purple polyp Montipora verrucosa -not sure on actual...

Lately I've had an outbreak of red turf algae(Asparagopsis?) in my 29 gallon mixed(manily SPS) reef. It hasn't reached plague like proportions, yet, and I'd like to prevent it before it does. I do weekly water changes with RO. My trates are in check but I'm not sure of the phosphate. I have a...

Well things are going pretty well with the tank lately. I'm loving the colors I'm getting out of my new phoenix 14k bulb; and the growth has really picked up as well. The tank has gone through a little make over and in the process I thinned out quite a bit to make room and just to clean up my...

I was just observing my reef and all of a sudden I see a constant "puffing" of whitish ink like substance coming from my live rock. It lasted for a good 10-15 seconds or so before I ripped the part of the tank apart to see what it was. This is what I found: I'm guessing some type of abalone...

It seems the magnet they use is not sealed at all. When I first purchased the pump this initially worried me, but alas i thought nothing of it as surely a company who specializes in making pump for aquaria would not put out a product that wasn't safe for aquarium use. I installed the pump and...

I was over at my friends the other day helping him with his tank, finalizing the aquascape, placing corals, and decided to take some shots while I was there. A little background on the tank. It's a standard 55 made by sea clear, 30 gallon fuge packed with chaeto, hydor korilia 4 and tunze...

It's been awhile since I've posted some pics so I figured I'd share some from this morning. I went up to atlantis aquarium yesterday and scored some very nice pieces of some corals I've wanted for ever now Here they are: tyree true undata( I got him to fresh cut a frag for me from one of their...

I am currently in search of a bulb that suites my taste well. I have a 150w HQI Sunpod made by current. Does anybody know what kind of ballasts these guys come with? Are they any good at all? If not, are the ballasts easily upgradeable? I really liked the stock 14k bulb in terms of color, but I...

I just received my new refractometer and the directions for calibration say to use distilled water. Would regular purified drinking water(aquafina) or RO water work? I don't have any distilled water on hand but if I need to go buy some I will.

Hope you guys enjoy, the colors are really starting to pop in my SPS corals. The sun pod was a great investment.

Just got through with a morning feeding for my corals. Had to take some pics as my shroms put on quite a display today. It's really cool to see how fat and puffy all the acans get. Max, the micro ate like a pig! heh
