Folks, if you've recently upgraded or renewed your annual club membership but it's still not active, please reach out to the BOD or a moderator. The PayPal system has a slight bug which it doesn't allow it to activate the account on it's own.
Run the gfo. Once you get things dialed in you should be able to take it off line. I have been running pellets for about 4 years. And no gfo for about 3. I recently transferred my tank to a new larger system. In the move I must have disturbed some nasty stuff as my po4 shot up and put everything...
Gonna follow this one. I love these big tank builds. The logistics involved in setting up something like this are so cool. Lot of planning.

Yeah thats my biggest concern. I'm using half the amount of recommended gfo I'll bring it down slowly over the course of a few weeks or so. I was just shocked it was that high. First test I did with the Hanna checker I assumed I screwed up. So I did it again and again. It does make sense though...
So after transfering my 4yo reef over to the new 93 cube Iv been having to clean my glass daily. My nitrates have always been around 1ppm and phosphates undetectable on a Salifert test kit. Out of curiosity tested my water multiple times with a Hanna checker and got 1.50 every time!!!! I haven't...
Im going. I'll probably go for the whole thing. My wife went to George Washington and I lived I dc for a summer so it has a special place in my heart. It's a very family friendly city with tons to do. We took the kids there for a weekend this summer and weekend was not enought time to hit the...
Well. Looks like I'm gonna have to make a decision. After 2 years of not touching anything in my tank my flame angle decided to start nipping at the acan bargins I picked up at the swap. It figures that when your able to buy coral at a massive discount something decides to eat it. I got 4 really...
Must be an upgrade thing. I'd had my tank up about 2 weeks. No issues. I went away on vacation and on the second day mark goes over to feed my fish to find water everywhere. For some reason my skimmer freaked out. Filled the 5 gallon overflow bucket i use when away, drained my 10 gallon Ato and...
George. How do you like the waveline pump? My water blaster is the only thing I'd change on my upgrade. It was a carry over from the old tank. To loud.

You could add pure ammonia. That way you can add it to like 4ppm and see how quickly it gets eaten up. I used dr Tim's and pure ammonia to cycle my 75. Worked great.

Mike is dead on. Im only 35 but if I had not made a major decision to just up and leave England when I was 18 I wouldn't have the life I do today. You gotta do this stuff while you don't have kids etc. Its a lot harder to move when you have your own family etc.
