Hello folks. It has been a long time since i have posted on here. Again i start to post again. I moved out of my girls place back in October. I am finally able to move my tank to my new house on Friday. I have not seen it since October. I am so excited. I do know that I lost a lot of my...

On a bright side I am so happy that with me feeding every other day now, bigger sump, and shorter light times I am getting a hold on the cyanobacteria. It's finally starting to recede.

Why is it crap always happens when your like 2 days from fixing the problem? I went away for a couple days to visit family and came home to my powder blue no longer with us. I know he died from the ich. I was like 2 days from pulling everyone out and tossing them in a tank to cure the ich once...

Yeah. I am so lucky we dont have carpet. The tank is on tile. I would have been dead if it was carpet. I ended up telling her and she just laughed (more at the fact that my first reaction was not to unplug the return pump but attempt to hold the water in. Amazing how conveniently the brain shuts...

I am quite positive that they were. you could see their little "frillys". I looked them up on google images and sure enough it was them. I am using two little fishies revive croal dip. It is what the local frag shop uses and recommended. It seems to have worked cause i see no more and there were...

Well i dipped all my sps today. The only one affected was my purple rim. I unfortunately wish i could i have got to him sooner. The nudis did some good amount of damage. Going to dip them again next week and again every week for the next 4 weeks. So sad about this. hopefully he can recover and...

I was just came on to post a thread on this. How convenient. So this verifies my question. So it sounds like a lot reuse their filter socks. If you wash them in the machine doesn't it collect the chemicals in the tap water? Hope that isn't a dumb questions.

Thank you. I hope it all works out.

Well..... It's got to that point where I am getting frustrated. You don't do one thing and bam your screwed. So I bought a purple rim monti cap and now its slowing going away cause of the discovery today of nudibraches chomping away at it. Also I don't quarantine one fish cause the my fish guy...

Awesome. Thank you.

Good point.

I posted this in my reef diary with not much response so I thought I would ask here. So I ordered a new sump tank. It's a 30g show. 36x16x12. I am gonna try my hand in putting in the baffles. We'll see how it goes. I added a picture to show you my idea on where and what I am doing. First baffle...

wow. I really like that price and what is comes with. I am gonna look into that one more. Thank you

Hello folks. I am looking into buying an RO/DI unit but could use some help. Every company says there unit is the best. I guess I am coming to you guys to ask what you use and what you recommend. It's only gonna be for top off on my 60g reef and maybe for drinking water. I was looking at the...

Yeah for sure. I will do that.

Well I like the UHE system but in no way can i afford that. I can pay maybe around 250 with pump. I was looking at the Kent Marine Maxxima 24 GPD RO/DI System. I looks like it doesn't use a pump but I dunno. I like the buck eye unit but have never heard of it so I'm sure if I see some reviews on...

So in a further attempt to not have to go to the lfs around here anymore I am considering getting and RO/DI unit or an RO unit. I dont know which is better to use and which one is a good one to use. I was looking in the 3 stage Coralife Pure-Flo II RO unit.

You know it was more my lady next to me going "honey he works here listen to him. He obviously knows what he is talking about". She now listens to me about the tank instead of anyone else. She bought the the protein skimmer. I bought the 20g tank used for the sump (which was a "ok fine i'll buy...

I have a mini g (another recommendation from one of my old fish guys). Upgrading as soon as the funds say so to a g1

The skimmer chamber I put at 10". Its just a guess. I bought my ASM used so I have no idea the correct depth for it. I have been keeping the water at between 8-10" in the sump its in now. I have 1 1/2" drasin lines coming off my HOB overflow. the return has 2 outlets. The hf stands for...
