    UGLY as all - plumbing help needed

    Those things reduce flow from the PH by 30%. Have you tried PH on a timer? They can crate random flow without losing so much power. The seio and tunze are nice too. They can creat lots of powerfull flow. Have you seen the maxi-jet DIY projects? 1 is to cut off the nozzle and put it on a timer...

    New gonoporia Coral

    That's just it, are in for the hobby to keep stuff for a few months or a lifetime? They live longer the the wild, not just 9 more months. That said, we have a guy here in CT, his name is (and i'm not kidding) Justin Credable. He has been studying these corals and has had very good luck(not...

    Can I use the live sand I had in garbage bag for 2 weeks?

    It's going to smell. It should smell. Just dig deep and take a wiff. If it smell like rotten eggs, that's good. When it sits wet and undisturbed, it starts to work as a DSB should. No worries. I would use it. Just put it in your sump but don't connect it to your main display. It will take 3...

    Float valve bracket - almost done

    The sand won't be enough. It needs to be sturdy for the pressure of the air in the float.

    Can't keep sand clean!!!!

    What color is the stuff on your bed? Is it algae or cyno?(it sounds like cyno) I also say PH's redirected would be best. When I had sand a bristle tooth did a great job keeping it clean.

    gorgonians

    Check out the purple garg on the left. I've had it almost 5 years. The more light you throw at it the faster it grows. I used to feed it under lower lighting, but now it's under 250 MH. I haven't fed it in a long time. I frag this alot and trade it with other club members. HTH

    Float valve bracket - almost done

    It is a VERY small movement if any. It is kinda pressure senative, a small movement down and it drips out slowly. During a water change, it drips out faster. Know what I mean?

    can it still be cultured?

    That doesn't mean it's not steril when they make it, it's at the end process so you have to buy more. :thinking: This is what I heard, by all means try, I have been wrong before. I have guy's in my club that make their own. They got cultures online after trying to use DT's. They tell me DT's...
