Which neptune controller are you thinking of getting? I was thinking of getting the Aquacontroller Jr in the Sep. PA group buy. What is the difference b/w Lab Grade and Standard pH ( resolution/accuracy ) ?

Good to see you are actively back in the hobby Taz. Sorry dont know the answer to your question. :P

Bump.... I have decided to go with a 600 Gph overflow, so am now looking at looking for a pump that maintains 600 Gph flow at a height of 4 and half feet above the pump. All connections would be vinyl tubing to avoid loss of flow at the bends. Any suggestions would be really helpful. In...

I have a 5G acrylic tank that I am going to convert to ATO container. The hood comes with a light, so I was wondering if I could use the setup to culture fresh water rotifers while I am at it. For food source I am thinking of keeping a piece of drift wood with java moss (I have plenty from my...

I am contemplating on getting a lifereef HOB overflow, since their street-cred seems to be the best. http://www.lifereef.com/siphon.html . I contacted them and was told to determine how much flow I should need in my setup. The guy himself remained somewhat non-committal on the matter, perhaps...

Funny .. ;D

Awesome zoos ... excellent pics.

Any ideas or forum threads to research controllers? How is the AquaController III ?

What are pill boxes?? My thoughts exactly on the reactor, but I would like the controller to have the ability to control pH so that I can eventually use it if I ever get a calcium reactor. I am often struck with an unexplained lapse of interest, the automation also comes handy in those...

I would be leaving for 3 weeks around end September and am sullying my pants thinking of my state my aquarium would be in in that time frame. I was thinking of the following investments: 1. Auto top off 2. 1 dolly for salt water 3. Calcium reactor ?? 4. A controller (temp, pH and lights) 5...

Soon they will figure out how to make marine fish on a large scale and we would get package deals for a "school of yellow tangs" at Sam's Club. ;D

Yep I remembered your advice from our first meeting (clove polyps :) ) and checked out some refractometers and digital pH meters. Did you buy them from this seller ? Refractometer...

I was looking to buy a couple of probes/monitors to test my water with better precision. While looking at Calcium probes, when I came across the following article. Might be interesting to some, http://www.reefkeeping.com/issues/2005-04/rhf/index.php

MACNA might clash with an official trip I might have to make. If it doesnt. I will be there. Thanks for the info though.

Most of us know the basic process, (all though I do use a powerhead to mix water, and I do so for 24 hours). But the reasoning behind keeping the parameters unchanged was really interesting. Also I think its time to buy a salinity refractometer...

I would not really mind having a discussion sharing experiences on lighting and SPS growth. Feel free to open a thread or continue on this thread. I believe water quality and proper regimen is just as important.

Would you know if I should stock my entire tank at the same time or if I should wait a week to get the Royal Gramma? The chromis I want to get at the same time.

Well I have decided to get 5 green chromis and a royal gramma to hopefully keep this guys shoaling and not attack each other. Any thoughts regarding the stocking is most welcome.

Here's what GARF suggested: Seems like excessive alkalinity and calcium supplements for me. My tank has nothing but rock, a HOB CPR fuge with cheato and an Octopus BH 1000 with 1 bag each of Carbon and PURA Phos-Lock. I am getting some green chromis tomm. and a cleaning crew this weekend...

Bump ... some inputs would be helpful. I was also looking into vitamin supplements .. Sea chem reef plus ?
