That was an excellent review ! great Job !

I mainly go to the Petco in Somerville. Usually gets a good selection on fish, ask for Pete (Marine Biologist) or Chrissy they will never stear you wrong.

I have been using a REEFOCTOPUS reactor with Vertex biopellets. I have used the NPX with a little success. The Vertex seem to be doing the job. One thing I have noticed it does not totally eliminate the nitrates but it gets very low. I have just re-added about 500ml of pellets so it takes a...

4 -6 inches for the size of the colony. Please feel free to contact me with the particulars. ;D I can trade for one of two skimmers I have or purchase the polyps or both. Please contact me at usfofinhos@hotmail.com or thru this site. Thank you.

A UPS is pretty cheap. I bought a 1300VA UPS and basically have all the essential pumps running off it. I keep the lights on a different circuit. Lights can be off for a long time but not pumps. I even have my heater on a different circuit going to the wall plug. If that goes off no biggy I have...
