I remember years ago in the early 80 they use to make a thing with 2 interlocked bottles. One had weight in it and the other you put preoxide in it. The cap had the tinest pin hole in it to allow the peroxide to trickle out it was to increase the O2 level in the tank.

I keep a butterfly in my reef, a black back. Had a racoon but he started to eat my clams. Tried a half moon with softies all went well for three months then he must have tasted one of them and in days they were eaten down to nubs. I have several of the reef safe angles in my reef. My larger...

I had found a ozone reactor made by corallife and that is what is inside not bale but very small bio balls. I should also mention that when I was using ozone in the early 2000's that there were no skimmers made from ozone resistance plastic. So that was never an option. The redsea machines have...

hay thanks for the information I have alot of good options now.

I gotta agree the rock work looks great. It's a great looking tank good luck.

what did it cost to up grade to the leds I have a 30 g oceanic the balast both went again. They run about 80 dollars to replace was wondering if it would be better going to the leds instead of replacing them again let me know thanks

as far as only getting shocked with one arm and not the other goes. I had a hydor power head short out in my tank. When I put my one thumb in the tank I would feel a tickle (wasn't my wife) I could stick the other part of my hand in or my other entire hand in and I would not feel anything. I...

I had the big corallife ozone generator, for the benifits it gave it was not worth the work. the air dryer pelets I had to bake them dry every 2 days. It ate ozone safe check valves every month. When the check valve goes the pump you have pumping the water through the ozone reactor and charcole...

that fantastic, wish my son was as driven

just a question have you checked the calcium level I found that when my alk was dropping that my calcium was higher then it should be in my reef only tank. In my fish only tank were the calicum was low about 1050, the alk was at 16dkh. Once I put the calcium to the 1400's the akl level in both...

With the aptasia I just put a racoon butterfly in and he took care of it for me. Then I moved him to the sump and put pipermint shrimp in to keep it in check. I agree with the tech m for the byropsis it worked great in my tank. As for the loose of the fish I feel for you I have lost many over...

I agree with the last post I had one for over2 years in a tank with small gobys and never had an issue. Other shrimp is another question I saw him go after cleaner shrimp, catch and eat one. As far as pellets go mine would eat anything I put into the tank.

I checked with the one byt me all the salt is gone also.

that is intersting to know that the blue linkia eat asterina stars. But as far as the coral frags go there could also be little critters in the substrat that are munching on them and the blue linkia is taking advantage of what is left. just a though.

I had a tank that went up 1.035 and saw no problems with the fish or corals. I would think much higher then that and you would be getting into Dead Sea terroatory. The second thought I have, is if there are other fish or coral's in the tank do they seem affected. If it was high enough to kill...

If you look at the unit broken down the fan is in a cooling channel within the lite. The leds and electronics come in no contact with the air being moved by the fan only the case which acts as a heat sink. If you are worried about the salt air taking out the cooling fan, I have lights with the...

I run 8 bulbs also 1 6700k 3 aqua blue plus, 2 actinc, and 2 aqua blue specials, plua a reefbrite attached to the outside of the light

the cord could be pulled around back towards the center of the light and hidden with a power cord cover and painted the same color as the wall to give a real nice finshed look. It is a really nice looking light.

that really is pretty cool

I have heard and seen first hand .that this happen's more often then people relize. Its quite possible that somekind of chemicul inbalance the we can't measure. I had a crosshatch trigger fish just go crazy after being in my tank for 2 years after 4 days of chassing the other fish around it...
