O.K. now take it easy; don't send them all out. I sent you the E-mail today about getting my purple stars. Leave me a piece as well!!!

The last test I ran everything looked good with the Kent test kits. I had the reef master kit. I had Nitrate; but very little. The first color up over 0ppm. I have added on a refugium tank to add in that problem. They have been like this for months. What are they sisitive to?

Not at this time. I have just joined on this chat but a want to make a projest giude book for it all later. I have made everything for my tank out of pvc and very little money!

Thanks that is what I will seek first. I would like to make the change as my corals grow in value and size but I don't want no guess and game!

I have read all the comments and I can tell you this. With putting your pumps aimed at the surface you are only cooling the water by evaperation. Almost like sweat does to us as humans. You are going to be majorly changing your salinity daily if you don't have a top-off water valve. When I ask...

LOL... I even beat that price. I did the same thing with a little one gal. plastic crab cage. I put it in my dt as well. I have a refugium I biult to the side... so I used the water coming out of it for current before it over flows back into my main tank. By doing it that way I can change water...

Do you have a glass on the top of your tank? Does your unit have fans in it? Is the unit ajustable?

I understand what a Calcium Reactor does; but I would like to know how good are they. Do you still have to raise and lower your level of injection? I now use KALWWASSER in a altomatic top-off system. My levels very in the month a few times over what they are supposed to be; ex. yesterday they...

I think you need the skimmer i have!!! I am not a company just a hobbier with the dream of biulding a 1150 gal system through the wall of my new house! I have biult a skimmer that works as good as the best I have seen. I as well have a 75 and a 50 gal. I bought my first then learnt from there...

Great links to help me understand!! The one thing I don't know by reading is when it all goes through the system does it not take out some of the minerials and salt? This (in a way) is like the leaching of the water through the earth; correct? :notsure:

I love DIY projects; I have biult everything for my system on a 75gal. I do not have a large problem with nitrates now but in my new house I am working on a whole wall display....about 1,125 gals.!!! I want it ALL for that system. I have been doing salt for about 3 years but have never heard of...

Hey whats up I have four tanks and skimmers on them all. I biult all but my first. They work great and I think I get more out of my skimmers than even the ones I purchused!! I can give you a good deal on one tell me what size tank you have so I know how big of one you need and where you are...

Well that is common with skimmers. I have biult several and am working on one that does not maek micro-bubbles!!! All you can do for the ones that have that problem is got to Wal-mart or somewhere and get a plastic small basket with holes in it. Put some floss in it and they will despurse the...

Well everything looks good with like using the master system. I thought that with them having a calcuim "shell" they may need more added to the tank; so i went and got the test for that. It was like 520ppm. I think it is suppose to be 400-500ppm....right? But would that make it not open and then...

Let me know if you have any more of the purple ones i have something I'm sure you would want. Let me know... mr.man_cavan@hotmail.com

I grow and frag my starpolyps. I have many kinds. You do need to slow down on your buying for now. With a new tank even if you do good for a few weeks you with end up with an overload of nitrites. I can for sure say though as long as you keep the bright purple colored "mat" with the bumps they...

O.K......So someone tell me what they know about the torches and other related corals ( hammers- frog spawn ). I have had some torch in my tank for about 8 months. They first looked OK (NOT GREAT) but did open up and they even started spliting.....till now? The tentacles have for a while not...
