Yea no cover, probably should look into that. Agree my P04 is way too high but usually when I change out the GFO it drops it fairly fast. I'm not sure if biopellets are actually doing anything to lower the N03. I'll take a video of how fast it's turning and see if there's too much flow in there...
Recent parameters.
* .22 P04 = just changed out GFO
* 25 nitrate = need to bump vinegar dosing to 40ml
* 9.57 alk = am I safe?
* 600 calc = am I safe?
* 930 mag = gotta bump it up gonna try Randy's recipes
Seeing some growth on sps only a few cm in the past week. Added a few more corals lately...
Hmm his post is very low so I wouldn't expect him to own up to the issues your having with your pump. I recently bought a SWC180 on MR and I went to his place and checked it out first before purchasing it. I haven't had much issues with mine except it overflows sometimes when I add too much...
If you buy it used, none of the money goes to SWC. There's a guy on reefcentral trying to sell his swc160 with 2 extra pumps for like 210$ which is decent price.
I used to run a asm g3 (gonna put it up for sale soon) and picked up a used swc180 recently and it's doing well. It over flow a few days ago for like 3 or 4 days and i had to make a few mod to the air silencer. I think its due to me putting some epoxy in the tank that got wet while i was mixing...
It was too late yesteday, light was out for a few hrs when I tried to put it in. I decided to take it out and will try again when I get home. I just didn't want it sitting there over night and pollute the water. He seem to be taking the flakes and pellets ok I added some more last night and went...
Congrats, the favia and monti would be fine on bottom or mid range and the sps towards the top. But I agree with Jcurry and move them up slowly. Check what lighting the other person have and adjust accordingly so you don't shock them from the changes of your tank and light.
He will probably the last addition to my tank. I drop mysis, flakes and pellets today. He ate them all but half of the time he spit back out the flakes. Hes pretty picky but hopefully he picks up when's dinner time. I also bough brine shrimp that I'll need to hatch. The only thing that's...
