>:( Very sad and upset with this store, although I somewhat did it to myself. The gf needed to go get cat food, so I figured Id peruse the saltwater selection. I come across 2 target mandarins, which are extremely emaciated, but active. They were desperate to find something on the grapefruit...
I had a derasa for about 8 weeks, and looked to be doing well until this afternoon after work. I noticed it was receded into its shell, I had to leave to do a few things, I came back a few hours later and its hermit crab/emerald crab food. I did dose very lightly with phyto, I hate adding alot...
So while making water all day yesterday (I have a slow RODI, only 25gpd) my faucet adapter blew off, broke a few glasses in my sink, and managed to strip out the female threads on my faucet. Now it cant hold it together to maintain pressure, putting me without a RODI, and of course I have no top...
Fixture is in great condition, legs included. Has moonlights and a fan. Used in total for about 6 months, bought it off a friend who bought it new. Im keeping acans on the sandbed no problem, and a clam about 6 inches below the fixture. My tanks 19 inches deep. Its the single lens, not bent...
Hi, cleaning out a few things that I doubt Ill use anymore.
1- KZ Fiji purple 24w 24" T5 bulb. Used for maybe a week total. Tried on one tank for a few days, then switched it to my other tank, not a fan of the color. Makes things very red IMO on a 4 bulb fixture. I paid almost 30 plus shipping...
Ive got about 30lbs of rock, and 20 lbs of sand. The tanks been cycling for a few weeks, parameters are as follows:
ph-8.3
ammonia-0 ppm
nitrite-0
nitrate-5 ppm.
I started with cured live rock out of someones tank and about 5 gals of waste water from my water change on my 24NC. Also looking for...
Very highly recommended. Great selection of everything, I especially loved the frag tanks, they had 3 or 4. They also use viewing boxes, for those not familiar its a small acrylic box that floats in the tank and helps you view and pick the exact frag you want. Very professional. They also carry...
Hey guys,
I ordered the 3x36+1x24 heatshield upgrade from nanotuners along with a true actinic bulb. I was thking about throwing the actinic in for the time being until I can re assemble my spare hood with the new heatshield installed, and transfer my other ballast over. Any thoughts on this...
K here goes. I bought the 5 pack of Husky LED flashlights from Home Depot over the winter, they should still be around, but I only paid 17 for them during some winter sale. At the time, I was still working as a tech for BMW, so it couldnt hurt to have backups. Besides, each light was like 2.25...
So Ive been seeing temps up to 84 on the hotter days in my nanocube 24dx. I replaced the fans with higher output ones, which also came with the higher volume. Currently its 2 everflow 60mm that I found at microcenter, 12 each. Anyway I wasnt happy with the flow out of the exhausts right above...
Ive read that theyll stretch if too far away, but whaqt about too close? Bleaching? Im running a 24 nanocube with 72w PC, 36w of 10k, and 36w of actinik.(sp?) Right now my mushroom and zoo are about 6-8 inches below the surface of the water. Recently moved so not all are open yet. Thanks
Has anyone done any of the nanotuners mods on their own? Id love to add another PC bulb, even make my own little LED setup for some cheato in the back. Im not very good with transformers, etc. so any links would be great. There s a Home Depot within walking distance and Id love to put it to use!
Im still amassing all the things I need to keep my tank healthy and happy. I came across someone on craigslist selling a bunch of salifert test kits. Prices are as follows
have the following Salifert test kits left:
> Ammonia: $10
> Copper: $9
> Nitrite: $9
> Nitrate: $12
> Calcium: $18

And picked it up..pics to come soon. Everything came with it, rocks, sand, test kit, food. I have been looking for a little while, and have had to turn down a 40g breeder, initally because it didnt have a lid (crazy cats) and secondly because the seller hasnt gotten back to me in a few days. I...
Im glad I came across a local site with reef keeping in mind. My names John, and I currently live in Hackensack, 07601. I have 2 freshwater tanks (Mixed Africans and shelldwellers) and have some birthday money burning a hole in my pocket, the gf gave me the idea of saltwater...So after a little...
