    OT: getting to know the people behind the posts

    Here is a pic under my hood. Sorry to disapoint you guys...its only a V6, but its quick. I swapped the rear end for an 8.8 with 3.73 gears, the intake, cams, and the 90 shot of NO2 (notice the solenoids in the top left and by the intake. I run low 15's in the quarter which i guess isn't to...

    Why cant they come up with a bio-media that can breakdown nitrates?

    The companies that market saltwater aquariums had to find something they can market. Most people when they start out n the hobby start out with a wet/dry. I myself walked into the LFS and wanted to know what I needed for a SWA. If the guy began to ramble on about a refugium and denitrator and...

    OT: getting to know the people behind the posts

    Well I was going to get into the cop discussion, but don't want to bring it back up. Living in a college city you have to deal with a lot of police, but there is something else that is even worse then police harassing you at a party......TOWING. After you are harrassed by the cops at the party...

    New acropora additions

    Bigmac, can you tell me a little bit about your setup as far as lighting and filtration and such? From the looks of things you have had great success with SPS corals. Fishfood, as far as fish I am always particular to tangs, but I belieive the 26 will be too small. I would go with thigs that...

    New acropora additions

    WOW bigmac, that is something else! Someday.....many many many years from now. I am just curious to know if you raised those from frags or from whole colonies and how long your tank has been set up for. Pretty much just wondering how many years growth that is.

    Raising my Calcium Levels

    I have found that dosing 2 part addatives is not the best way to raise Ca and Alk levels. I use B-ionic which is very similar to the product you are using. I tried to use it to raise my Ca and Alk but found that it did so inneffectively. I feel that products like this are better for...

    Raising my Calcium Levels

    When I did it I did not just use a Ca addative. I raised the CO3 levels in conjuction with the Ca additions by using the reef builder. I would highly caution about adding just Ca to your tank. If Ca and CO3 levels are not raised together then you will throw everything out of whack.

    Quick Question going to store please let me know ASAP

    What the thing to do would be get ballasts from Home Depot that are really cheap and can run VHO or NO lights. Look at the ballast and they you say VHO or HO and tell yu how many bulbs they run, the length, and amp. Make sure they are instant start and don't require a starter. Then you just...

    Raising my Calcium Levels

    I took a little more agressive aproach to raising my Ca. It was stuck at 375 and the Alk and pH were perfect and the Mg was also right on. So I went and got a bottle of the Kent Ca addative. I would dose 2 teasp of seachem reef builder in the morning and then I dumped in about a 1/4 of the...
