Hey all, about to throw in the towel and jump to fluconazole to treat (if you have some you can spare around Princeton area please let me know). But I have done everything to reduce phosphates over the past month - feeding less, running GFO to keep phosphates below 0.1ppm (Hannah checker around...
So I was just having fun to see what the general internet has to say about setting up a reef tank, stumbled upon this gem…
I think the lesson might be to stop trusting the internet, just for more fun, does anyone rinse their coral under tap in the sink after dipping?
Looking for other acropora valida, already have the ORA tricolor (but mine is not as colorful and there is some variation among these so send a pic if you have some) and the garf bonsai. Not sure what others are A. valida, but hoping to learn and find more!
May buy one but figured it’s at least one frag I wouldn’t be able to buy for the new setup if I do. I’m in the Princeton area now and figured I’d ask if anyone in the area has one I might be able to borrow for a new setup? If your not in the area, still curious about how people like them!
Is my Favia being eaten by my peppermint shrimp? Complete loss of tissue, one polyp at a time and this shrimp is suddenly interested in it. Everything else in the tank looks great.
I think I am going to focus my acro efforts on torts, I want to build out the collection, but information on ID is limited (like the entirety of the hobby) and I was wondering if anyone has some torts to sell. I have miyagi, Oregon, and immortal already. I am missing the Cali tort and am open to...

The system includes programmable pump speed, full lighting control broken into 3...
Worked on tying in all I am learning into the largest tank I have started. Tank was a deal at petsmart:

Im looking to buy that old fragging equipment gathering dust in the corner. Maybe another tank can go in its place! Not looking for anything in particular but have no equipment for fragging and would like to use the trimmings for new tanks. Show me what you got!
Yes, it’s a true pico and has proven as temperamental as you would think! Here is its tale:
June 1 - Discover scuba dive in St. Thomas took a few days to pick my jaw up off the sea bed and had me in a trance about having a part of that in my home (I did not disturb the natural coral) and so my...
