its only been a few days after doing my second water change using the reef actif and I must say, I have never seen the polyp extension I see in my tank the way I have this past week. My corals all look so healthy and my water looks so crisp and clean. I cant say what the long term effects of...

I apologize for the above, let me start over... ok so I did my ten gal water change today. its been about a week now and I must say the corals look to have much larger polyp extension than I have seen in my tank ever. the colors still look the same but I didnt expect much of a change in a weeks...

No problem. I will be doing a ten gal water change this weekend. I will check the levels and post them for you. I run my tank at 1.027 which is what natural see water is using a refractometer.

I agree with you. I talked to the tropic marin rep at macna and from what he told me is that their new line should be here in the states in the next five months, (the bio actif salt) so I am really looking forward to getting my hands on it. the guy really answered alot of my questions, I am...

Hey everyone, I tried looking for any type of reviews from people using Tropic Marin reef actif and can't seem to find any. It is the product which Tropic Marine will be incorporating in their new salt, Bio Actif. I will keep posting and let you know how my progress goes using this product. I...

From my research I have found nothing to be a full proof meathod. There are a few things you can try but it's at your own risk. Do some of your own research on it before you think to attempt anything. Fresh water dips, I understand are a way of killing the parasite. If you tang will eat than I...

I am not 100% sure about this but I thought convict tangs did not do well in captivity. I thought they were hard to get to eat?

Yes T5 is amazing. Since I redid my filtration my tank has been much easier to keep everything in check. I think stability was my biggest challange but once I started dripping kalk, along with my two part, I was able to keep everything in check with minimal fluxuation. It is amazing watching...

No they are grade b Picasso. Thank you guys for such positive feedback. I've worked really hard on my setup. It's come a very long way. I started a thread on tale of the tank if anyone would like to see the progress.

a little info on my set up. I started out with just little live rock and a few fish. I was never planning on going over to reef, let alone sps/lps. I started my tank March of 2007. I was running my 75 gal with PC bulbs, coralife, a wet dry, with a rio skimmer. around Nov 2007 I decided to...

Thank you. I had a pair but I lost one to what I believe may have been internal parasite. looking to replace him in the near future. this next photo is from Oct of 2008 Ive fragged quite a bit from it too. I will see what else I can dig up.

thank you. I remember when all my stuff was just frags. its grown so much. I cant believe how it all turned out. I am going to see if I can find any photos from when I first started up my tank. I truly think it looks much more amazing in person. I have to get practice with the camera.

thank you very much. I must say I agree.

he is still very shy but I will work on getting a better more up close picture

I apologize for the not so perfect pictures I will continue to try and see if I can get some better ones.

I know. I had a beautiful purple tang in my tank. I took him out and replaced him with the Achilles. The purple was simply amazing. He ate like a champ and looked flawless. A truly beautiful fish. The reason I opted to getting him out was because he was a real bully. None of my other fish could...

were the pictures taken with a under water cam or just a regular digital? pictures look good colors look great as well. Sorry to hear about your arm bty. hope it heals well.

I agree. Tank looks original. I haven't seen anything like that. great concept. please do post pics along your progress. I would love to see how it turns out.

i picked it up on friday. I have tried almost everything. I am gonna try to soak some nori in garlic extreme and see if he will get that. thanks for the advise. wish me luck. I went into this knowing that they are very hard to get to eat, so I am hoping for the best. thanks again.
