I have been doing much research on various types of carbon and like most things in our hobby I see many varying opinions. So I thought I'd poll the club members. Can you tell me what you use and why? I am currently using the BRS ROX type. Thanks.

I have a 54 gal corner tank with a 10 gal sump (thats all I can fit.) I use a Reef Octopus 1000sss skimmer in the second section of the sump and I find that it works really well. Pulls out a cup of muck every few days.

I'm sorry I ever got that pistol in the first place. I never see it but see plenty of animals disappearing. I'm certain he is the magician.

BTW, Here is a shot of my current set up.

Thank you for the detailed information. I got these two fish from Tony Shipwrecked when he broke down his tanks. They are not very large and one is larger than the other. They had lived together for some time when Tony had them and they could possibly be a pair. The aggression is not towards...

I have two ocellaris trying to host anything in the tank with tenticals. They are also becoming extremely territorial Can anyone suggest the best type of anemone to house these guys?

I have not reached out. I think they would have known about it. Those guys are really good and I put complete trust in them. But I'll speak with them over the weekend.

Thank you for the well wishes. Things are looking a little better. Most corals are showing improvement but not all. I did a water change and may do another tomorrow. I really wish I knew what the cause was. Had to be either the Carbon or the GFO but like I said. I have been using both for some...

I agree about the nitrates. I will check them again this morning. Thanks for the offer, I have about 10 gal made now only need about 10 more. Tanks is only 54 gal. I have to run out to a meeting so I cant get to the water change until this afternoon. No choice at this point. This will teach me a...

I must comment that I have been using this carbon and phosphate remover for 6 months and never had a problem. I will most likely continue to use them once I determine the cause of the decline. Since my nitrates have risen I am starting to wonder if one of the inhabitants has died causing the...

Not bio media, carbon and the white beads for phosphate removal. I am doing a water change today. I didnt have any RO on hand so need to wait until its made. Thank you all for your help.

I did turn off the reactor immediately after noticing the corals deteriorating.

little white pellets. Been using them since December.

I thought so as well. I dont have a copper test so not sure what to do at this point. every time I look at the tank it just looks worse.

not sure, They package it themselves. tried giving them a call but they are closed.

its the brand Captivating coral sells. Never had a prob with it in the past. Things are getting worse by the minute

I changed my gfo and carbon today and a few hours later all of my corals and Mushrooms started closing up. Zoas and Blastos are all shriveled. Al params are normal except Nitrates rose from 2 to 10. PH nitrites alk and phosphates are normal. Could the media change have anything to do with this...

I find their most prices to be the best around but not when it comes to RO related items. I buy all of my pond supplies from them. Lately I've been trying to support my LFS but the last 10 years or so up to recently I bought all of my tank supplies from them as well. Only recently have I felt...
