Anyone know if 250W 12k Reeflux bulbs (SE) are available somewhere locally? I plan on getting a pair through the PA Group Buy, but I wanted to get a pair now if I could.
I'm having a problem with my skimmer. I cleaned it today and when I turned the pump back on, I get no foam in the skimmer column. I checked the Beckett several times and it seems fine. The reason I get no bubbles is because as the water rises in the column, it starts to pour out of the air inlet...
I want to get new MH bulbs in the next PA Group Buy, but I'm not sure which bulb to get. I currently run two 250W 20k XM bulbs on ARO ballasts with two 110W Super Actinic VHO's. My tank is 26" deep. I like the bluer color, but I think I'm sacrificing growth. I was trying to decide between the...
Don't know if any of you saw my post on RC, but here it is:
My pocillipora and cactus coral are loosing their color. The polyps on both these corals are extended but they are mostly white. They have both been under this lighting for several months. Any ideas?

I bought a 15" HDTV for our bedroom. I have it hooked up the DIRECTV HD receiver and it's working fine. I can't seem to get it hooked up properly to my DVD/VCR combo so that I can watch DVD's and VHS and record VHS. The diagram attached shows how it's hooked up now and all the ports on each...
I posted this in the NJ Reefers section of RC. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

I've been thinking about redoing my piping arrangement. I was shooting for one pump to handle everything. I have not shown any valves in the drawing, but obviously there would be valves on all the branches to the PO4 reactor, UV, etc. I even found an inexpensive PVC flow control valve to put in...
I have a couple purple tipped acro frags in my 120g. I either got them from my LFS or fellow reefers. When the frags were in the fish store tanks or in the other people's tanks, the purple tips were very pronounced. In my tank I see little to no coloration on the tips. One frag has been in there...
I've been seeing alot about this Zeovit system that claims to reduce NH3 and PO4 and make your corals look better and water clearer. Anyone know about this system? Is it as good as it's made out to be?
Just thought you all might be interested:

With the current PA Group Buy, I'm considering buying 250W 20K bulbs because I just love the bluer color. I have 14ks now, but before I commit to buying the 20ks, does anyone in my area have two 250W 20k bulbs (standard mogul base) that I could borrow for 2-3 days to get an idea of what my tank...
Should there be a check valve on the line that feeds CO2 from my bubble counter to the CA reactor? If so, what type of check valve should I get?
Thanks
I usually turn my return pump off during feeding. Tonight, when the return pump came back on, the display tank got very close to overflowing :o.
After a few minutes, the water level did go down and everything was ok. What also happened was the level in my skimmer column went way down. My...
I have a 9W Coralife Turbo Twist installed on my 120g reef tank with a 55 gallon sump. The total water volume (display and sump) is about 150g. Â I'm wondering if that size sterilizer is too small for the volume of water I have. Any thoughts?
