There's always hope. I have one in a rock crevice for over a year now. No special care. Never moves. Just waves its tentacles in the wind all day.

I have a Neon Green Toadstool and a Green Devils hand that drop offspring all the time. There's no harm in helping it along. I do it sometimes when I get tired of watching them hang in the currents.

John Are you able to get Aquavitro Salinity salt? I'd be interested in a couple of buckets of the 220 gallons if you can. Thanks

I have been using the FS NT-01DOSING PUMP from Fishstreet. Its been consistent and reliable. It seems to have all the features of the BM and was very easy to set up and use. Other then increasing the dosing amounts periodically as things grow or are added, I haven't had to touch it. Well worth...

The Blue Spotted Jawfish and the Mandarin Goby are two hard fish to keep. The Blue Spot is actually a cooler water fish and even though some keep it successfully in a warm reef tank it does do better in the low 70s. Mandarins need a good amount of pods to survive. If you keep it with other fish...

I have a tank that evaporates 2 to 2 1/2 gallons a day in the room adjacent to the piano. No issues. I get it tuned once a year and the tech never mentions any issues. Not that I even thought to ask.

Mine found a spot a year ago and didn't move until it split about a month ago. It burned a couple of SPS but nothing fatal. They both seemed to be settled again, hopefully for at least another year.

I've been using the FS NT-01 from fishstreet for the last few months. Easy to program and does what it supposed to. Can't be beat for $140 shipped.

I was at Hidden Reef Saturday also for dry goods. Thats all I buy there. When I look at their tanks almost every fish had something wrong with it. In the tank next to the Lamark was a Fox Face that was almost rotted thru. Most of the fish just don't look healthy. I would guess they run the...

I know every tank and situation is different but I'm still perplexed on why Cheato would flourish in Asonitez tank and just wither away in RF/BF's tank. I run GFO now but still get a tremendous amount of Cheato growth. Salty supply is the only one with the reactor for sale but they are out of...

Thanks for the recommendation. I thought I was sold on the smr1. The FR4 is about the same price so that is not an issue. I can't find much info about it. Even their website is nothing but a few pictures. I'll take your word that its a superior product. What size hose does it use?

For you guys running them, is there a downside when you started or was it good right from the beginning? Asonitez: I was stalking your setup and saw you are using the SMR1 reactor. Thats the one I was thinking of using. Happy with it?

I've read the same elsewhere and that's my biggest fear. Do you have a similar tank to mine with a heavy load or are you mostly coral?

Thanks Guys I sometimes think it might be my water is "Too clean" but I have softies that grow like crazy. I have a torch that before I accidentally fragged it was a foot across and a hammer that is easily ten inches around when expanded. There's also Neon Green Nepthia that is trying to take...

I've gone on a quest to stabilize my tank over the last few months. I bought a doser from Fishstreet and a combination GFO/GAC reactor from Spectrapure. Prior to this I have always manually dosed and used mesh bags in the sump. I am happy with the results so far but I am looking for better...

They sent me a letter inviting me to a special 10% off closing sale. I'm sure they'll lower their prices even more eventually. They had a ton of tanks left in the back.

I am using the bulk GFO from eBay. $60 for 6 lbs. No issues. I use the same amount of it that I use to use with BRS and it seems to work exactly the same. I tried it after reading that many users on RC tried it with no problems.

I only measured my pH a while ago because the tank seemed "off". It was in the low 7s. Closed house with a fireplace in the room that is always on. I ran a fresh air line from the outside wall to my skimmer and pH has been a steady 8.0 since. I also "bake" my baking soda for alk during the...

These are the Ocean Revive S026 that I upgraded to: (Won't let me post link. Google it). I haven't heard anyone say anything bad about them yet. They sell them on ebay also for about $150 and go on sale on their site occasionally also. Three would be more than enough for a 125.

I had very similar lights to these. I used them for a few years and was very pleased with them. They grew all types of coral at a good clip. As far as durability, they did start to degrade after a couple of years but I blame myself for that as I had them under a hood and they were running a...
