Thanks everyone, I have found a buyer for the complete setup!!

There are RSM and YouTube tutorials on replacing the ballast. Hardest part is finding all the little screws that hold the lid together. I finally gutted mine and retrofitted it with an LED setup from stevesled.com

I bought a used RSM 250 and really like it, but I could never get the skimmer to work properly. I replaced it with a hang on back model and that freed up a lot of sump space for a reactor, etc.

They aren't near each other. The white stuff appeared and stayed but didn't spread past the initial outbreak. I think the corals bleached under it, but then grew around it.

Yes, I think there’s bleaching under it.

Some white fuzzy stuff has started growing on my war coral and leptoseris Is it algae or what? The coral seem to be able to grow around the infected area. None of the other corals in my DT show any signs of this. I’ve attached 2 photos. It’s in the lower edge of the war coral an upper part of...

Will running blue only or for most of the day disrupt the biorhythm of my fish?

i think it's not a disaster after all. The water is coming from the hose to my chiller where it links to a down spout in the sump. It looks like the drips were travlling across the back of the tank and down into the power center compartment. Crisis averted!!

This morning I noticed a little water on the floor next to my Red Sea Max 250 (66g AIO). Further investigation seems to point to a slow leak where the glass meets the base inside the power center compartment. By slow I mean one drip every 30 seconds. Can I live with it, will it eventually turn...

I just installed an Aguamaxx HOB 1.5 and it’s pulling all kinds of crud out of my 66g.

I’ll be there after 3. My first meeting!
