I use Salifert and it is always 0 I guess what I need to know is if I put one on will it hurt even if I have low to no PO4's? I can get a used one cheap.

So here is my question I just added my first SPS my tank always tested 0 for PO4 my fudge is full of algae so I am sure they are eating up the PO4's. My DT gets a green film on the glass and I have to clean it every two days or so. I am thinking of adding a phosban reactor but I am concerned...

How much for the phosban reactor

Thanks sign guy. What did you end up with?

I have a pair of Maroon Clowns that were getting along fine swimming and sleeping together. I added a BTA last week now the male (smaller 3/4") has been chased off and banished to the corner of the tank by my female (2"). Will she accept him again or is the honeymoon over?

I am looking for a device that can turn on my fan when the temp rises above 80 and then turns off at 79. I don't need a full blown controller as I already have a light timer and wave maker. I appreciate any suggestions. Thanks
