I would first suggest 2 things. [list type=decimal] Check your feedings. Its possible you are feeding more often or more at the time of feeding then your inhabitants can devour. Check the flow to the areas where the cyano is breaking out. Often lack of flow can contribute to breakouts. [/list...

So nice to find water on the floor. My scrubber union valve was hanging over the edge of the sump so the flow changed a little and ran down the pipe, dripped on the edge of the sump, of course it ran onto the floor. Adjusted that and we are scrubbing again. Getting some nice color. Merry...

To all my SW friends, have a Merry Christmas. I am certain a few of you will only get coal from Santa but when life gives you lemons make lemonade. Bust that stuff up and put it in your reactors!

Really like the bear. Just a thought on those hinges. You may want to give them a very light coat of grease. I wish I had done that with mine. 1 year and they are rusting pretty good. I will have to replace them soon.

Man I have to say I already have color. I ran the unit a day or so with just flow and some very week light. Now I have the 2 lights at approx 4" from each side of the screen. You can already see the GHA growing. I am really excited. I hope to see some great results. PS> it tool me a long time to...

Merry Christmas to you and yours. I hope this season brings more blessing to you and everyone in this community.

Yeah Ill come up with something.

Ok so now the lights are installed. We shall see what happens next. Any advice on light cycle now. Should it be 24/7 until optimum growth or should it be 18 on 6 off???

I believe that the recommended T count will be 80. Can you find a blade with a good carbide tip. sharper the better.http://www.generalsaw.com/resource/plastic_tips.html That link should be a good starting point for some foundation information.

Like the LMB. I miss mine.

Ok I am in. As far as what I think about the last tank. I think it was nice but the lighting looked somewhat spot like. I give it a 8. This is a 90 mixed reef . 2 Clowns, 1 Sailfin, 1 Watchman Goby, 1 Mandarin, 1 Coral Beauty, 1 Fireshrimp, 1 Coral Banded, 1 Sand Sifting Star, 1 Darasa Clam...

Looks really good. As predicted my flow has really evened out and I couldnt be more happy. I may try to get the lights on it tonight but I do have some light under there so we will see.

I use Kent as well but like said above dont go KRAZY. Oh yeah dont freak out when one day you come home and look in the tank and see the crown floating around in the tank. Apparently they shed that ever so often.

I have all of my fingers and toes. Always feels funny when I have an object over a blade and my fingers are on top of where I know the blade is. Dont drink beer and try that one I tell ya. It seems that the flow has evened out across the screen even more tonight. I think once the algae starts...

Ok so I got the scrubber in the sump. Here is a video of it running. Still have to finish the light but its wired just needs to be installed.

Sorry Nissan, I meant the zero tank with the water flowing down the outside of the tank. Thats not to say that your tank wont be worth sticking fingers in.

That is so dang cool. Only thing is kids would stick their fingers all over the water. Still a very cool tank.

Really nice. That overflow tank is pretty funky. So it spills over into a basin and then a sump? Do the critters climb out? Cant wait to see the next pictures.

Very nice pics/ The torch looks nice and those zoas are very nice. I see your fire shrimp is out. Mine in the 90 wont come out for much. Food yes, company comes over and yes hes out like oh I stay out here all the time. For general purposes he has a thing for my watchman goby who also stays in...
