Guys, seriously! I have had real nice colors, and some OK growth, nothing to special, within 6 months my growth has been minimal at best I think. I borrowed a PAR meter from a hobbyist and noticed I am getting around 150-230 PAR around most of my SPS. On 100% intensity with Radion G3 PRO with...

I bought the refurbished 125$ unit from their website. I need to replace filters. I'm reading 005 tds. Is this what I need? http://spectrapure.com/FILTERS-MEMBRANES-RESIN/FILTER-REPLACEMENT-KITS/MPDI-System-Cartridge-Replacement-Kit-High-Capacity-DI

Hi all, I made a follow up video to my first one. I have been running one Kessil A160WE Tuna over my frag tank for almost 2 months now. I am very impressed! It grows everything, color is phenomenal, and the shimmer and intensity is great! I love it! Just want to share my experience as it is...

Bought out a tank recently. Really like this. Unique name? Or no? Never seen one like it!

So, yes, apparently a recent coral purchase or something must have brought ich into my system. It's the unfortunate risk that I take and do not QT coral or snails etc... Well ich is back. Yay I have to catch 10 fish! I have a 40 breeder for my QT. NOT CYCLED, How am I going to do this...

Hi all. I have about 10 fish in display. I need to remove all and qt again. What is the best way to remove all fish without knocking everything over and trying over the course of three days. Tricks? Heavy rock work and corals. Kole tang showing signs of ich. I'm treating all fish with curpramine...

I currently have a Kessil A160WE over my frag tank, and LOVE IT! But, here's my dilemma, I want to buy another Kessil, and move both Kessils up to my 93 cube to supplement my Radion G3Pro, for shading issues... I was going to replace my Kessil over the frag tank with a Mars Aqua. Yay or nah...

Hi all, so my tank is now about 6 months old. I have a lot of SPS, LPS, zoos, etc. Colors look good. Growth is good. I have 10 fish. All is going good. I notice some sps with some faded color. I rarely feed corals. Maybe 5 times out of the 6 months I have used coral frenzy. But not often at all...

Just looking at the tank like normal tonight I noticed this on the Midas blenny. Eating well, swimming well, no signs of irritation. All other fish look fine. It looks like a branded M almost. Sorry for the horrible picture but he's too fast to get a decent shot. I can try for a better pic in a...

Picked this up yesterday for 45$ Seemed like a good deal... Is this just a standard green acro? 4N0A8234 by Vapour1ze, on Flickr

For those of you running red sea coral pro salt. What do you keep your alk at? I have been running reef crystals for the past 6 months. Switched to red sea. Alk is higher out of the box and I noticed two of my sps started turning white at the base. Think it may be alk burn? I run alk at 8.5 even...

No idea what's going on here... Lol. He will do this for almost 10 minutes. And open his mouth and look like he's yelling when he hits the glass. So weird! http://youtu.be/G4YohB5TvEE

Morning everyone, So last night I went and picked up my center piece for my display... I purchased a Copperband. I know they are very finicky and very difficult to get feeding. I have him in the display as he looked healthy enough and went through a bath there (yes I am crossing my fingers) I...

New fish out of QT and into display! Healthy and eating fantastic! :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0j6sprgYK6s

Hi all, so I am finishing the stocking of my 93 cube. Current stock list is as follows: Midas Blenny 2 Bangai Cardinals Melanarus Wrasse 2 Ocellaris Mated Pair Flame Hawk I plan on adding a Flame Angel, but I want one more fish, it can be a little expensive. I want a CENTER PIECE for my fish...

Did first treatment on qt three days ago. The water has a haze to it. Is this normal with prazipro or should I do a water change? I was going to wait 5 days and do 50 percent water change and one more dose to be safe. Advise? Tips? Cloudiness normal? Thanks!

Hi all, so unfortunately I started my main build thread on reef central, documenting the tank build, the basement fish room build, and coral progression. Tank is now about 4 months old. I didn't know about Chicago reefs at the time since I am a hobbyist of 8 years ago and the place back then...

I picked one up from reef wise the other night, colors look like it is going to color up nicely, it is small though so still juvi/female. The caudal fin has a little nibble out of it, but it was the best looking one out of the bunch so I took him. Any chance on him regrowing that part of tail...

Hi all, I have 4 fish in QT right now, this is my first time using PraziPro, I have 4 fish in the same QT tank. (40 Breeder) -Melanarus Wrasse -2 Bangai Cardinals -Midas Blenny I did my first dose of PraziPro last night ever, I did about 1 3/4 TSP since I am running about 30g in the...
