    Reef ready worth it

    Yes that is the reason why I have not glued mine aswell. Along with have you ever had a fish jump in the over flow and had to pull it to catch him in the filter sock :)

    Reef ready worth it

    The over flow consist of a bulkhead thru bottom of tank. Then there is a stand pipe that you just press into this bulkhead. No one ever glues this. And over time water will leak past the pushed in overflow pipe. In my case the 120 has 2 over flow sections. And in each section has a drain...

    300 gallon financial sinkhole

    Can I ask you why you and everyone else thinks schedule 80 PVC is so important to have I’m just curious?It cost a whole lot extra money and it’s really not necessary besides maybe for the color But maybe I’m missing something. It’s also a lot heavier which will cause more unneeded stress from...

    Messing with my new microscope

    When searching for a microscope I honestly had no clue what I was looking for. Decided I was going to get one with highest magnification I could get for a cheap price cause I was not going to use it much. I had an Amazon gift card so started to look on there. Many to choose from. I started to...

    Messing with my new microscope

    So I originally bought a microscope so I could try to I’d some of the algae in my tank so I could properly treat it to go away. In the time I waited for delivery most my algae has gone away on its own so this did not seem as important to me anymore. But I still wanted to play with my new toy...

    Need a new idea. Anemone removal.

    I’m not sure this is recommended and I would say not to do it and if you do only do it at your own risk. Well actually the anemones risk. But I have done this many times and it always worked for me but will harm anemone very little and if I’m good water conditions will heal very fast. I use...

    Hi

    oh no sorry to hear this chase. I know how it feels last time I went out of town my dad came late to feed every night when lights off and fish hide but he still dump in tons of food to just sink into rocks and skyrocket phosphates and nitrates. Hang in there and don’t give up

    Questions/conversation about dosing and when it’s to much and time to switch to calcium reactor.

    All great information here. I would assume the double in consumption came from being able to hold ph so high at 8.3 consistently. Also I’ve been slowing ramping lights up little 1x a week. In combination of those 2 I’d expect to see larger alk consumption but then you threw in there do I see...

Bought the peristaltic pump after trying to use the stock valve reactor came with and after every few days my drop rate would slow down from Valve constantly getting clogged. This is...
