    180 upgrade

    I'm running 2x SB extreme 32" fixtures supplemented by 2 6' t5s (mainly for evening out the light). Been very happy with the appearance and growth I've been getting with them Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk

    Acro from feng

    That's definitely no red planet. I'm going to have to snag a frag of that whenever you take some snips from it. That's a really nice stick! Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk

    Question About Substrate

    I also like to blend sand sizes. I use a mix that's primarily special grade (like 2 to 1) with a finer sand and a few scoops of crushed coral. Looks more natural to me and the fine stuff gets held in place by the coarser stuff. Burrowing critters appreciate the diversity of textures for...

    Anyone know how to drill??

    I've drilled dozens of tanks. As stated above, make ABSOLUTELY sure it's not tempered. Feel free to call the manufacturers and they can usually tell you if you have the serial number or date of manufacture. Secondly, high quality bit is crucial. Go slow and keep the drill vertical...

    Question About Substrate

    With the right powerhead placement, the sand shouldn't blow around too much after the dust filters out. I do prefer the special grade sand in high flow tanks as it allows higher flow nearer the sand bed which is helpful. The wrasses will be fine in and sand that's not crushed coral size...

    2 part or cal reactor?

    Been running calcium reactors for years. Low maintenance and once it's dialed in, maintains calcium and alk as well as any doser. I'm running a procal reactor from MTC (a jersey based company in Midland Park) with ph controlled by my apex and a carbon doser regulator. The system is fed by a...

    Clams, The Best Food for your Reef

    I put them in my homemade food mix. Wish I could throw them in on the half shell, but that might be hazardous for my tridacnids Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk

    Pill bug question

    They'll die when they're submerged. Fun fact though, "roly-polys", pill bugs, whatever you call them are technically isopods. They're the only order of terrestrial isopod. Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk

    Anyone have a trigger ruby elite sump?

    I'm actually running the same pump and mine also doesn't have the adjustable baffles. Your level of your ATO will actually determine the return chamber level. I run mine so it's the same depth as the skimmer chamber and it seems to work well. As far as the fuge I don't run it as a fuge since...
