I have 50 pounds of Fiji Live Rock that is cured and I ended up not using. $100.00 for all, OBO. Ken

Take out the sand or thoroughly gravel syphon it and your nitrates will drop like a rock. Ken

Make sure the unit you get has individual reflectors. Ken

I seriously doubt that this caused your problem. I think your cyno problem was around the corner anyway. If you didn't have the necessary factors in your tank to start, the cyno would not have taken off, and would have died off on that piece.Put some hair algae in a nutrient poor tank with tons...

Sounds pretty simple. Cut him off in the bedroom until he fixes up the house. Ken

Nick, best signature I have ever seen. Ken

Probably less that 1/4 turn, The pump is Blueline. It is an external pump. Ken

Thanks. I was using the 7.2 turnover one (Blueline 30). However I had the ball valve not opened all of the way. Ken
