Everything is ready to install under the tank! I'm waiting for about 20 more gal of ro and I'll be ready to go. Breakdown and install is tomorrow so I'll take all my pics and start the rebuild thread also. Twisteds 180 Reef

I'll have bulkheads today! My friend that hooked me up withe the sump has some xtras so let the new build begin. I'll start the thread today! Twisteds 180 Reef

I'm gonna give my best, thanks Brian. If I could find bulkheads locally I could get cranking on this but no one has so I'm held up in ordering them. I'm gonna try a marina today maybe I'll get lucky Twisteds 180 Reef

things are going way south again. seems i just cant catch a break. we went to tenn for turkey holiday and came back to an almost empty sump (sa was .031) and cyano everywhere. the sump dropped due to my topoff line falling out of the sump and about 20 gal of fresh emptied on the floor over a...

Thanks guys! I've tried quite a few things but feel wc's and lots of carbon are the key. As a local reefer told me, you just have to make an unsuitable environment for the Dino's by perfect water and thoroughly blowing off rocks when doing wc's and lots of carbon for toxin removal. I'm starting...

Just wanted to give an update since I've been Mia for a bit. Over the past few months I've battled a real bad case of Dino's and lost about half my tank. Ive tried everything but wc's r about the only thing that kept the other half alive. It's been so frustrating I came close to giving up. I'm...

Could it be green coralline? Twisteds 180 Reef

Not anymore than normal. The only stirring is when the coris dives under for the night. I'm gonna pick up a silicate test kit and see what happens. I'll chop the acro in the am and hopefully save what's left. Not much else I can do I guess Twisteds 180 Reef

I have an ro that I replace filters once a month. New resin, carbon. Sediment gets every other month. I'll test for silicates. Could it be from egg frag racks? Twisteds 180 Reef

Things are starting to really go south on a few sps. I keep testing and double checking with a pinpoint system and everything is stable and undetectable phos and under 5 on trates. I do water changes bio monthly with 60 or so gal each. I'm stumped. I vac it up and it's back the next day. This is...

Here's a better pic. I guess a good word to describe it would b almost fuzzy Twisteds 180 Reef

I'll get some closer shots after work. The algae isnt leafy but it's not hard. I can vac it off but it's back the next day. The only thing I've done in the past 6 mnths that's different was use micro bacter 7 and biofuel but then I got some cyano and stopped it 2 mnths ago. Cyano went away then...

Hey reefers. I've been having a problem recently with some kind of brown algae. It's getting on everything and today I came home to some tissue loss on some sps while others are looking great. My params are good with no detectable phos. No fish missing and nothing showing red flags. Here's some...

They look better under T 5's. They are real vibrant. When I frag them I will set some pollips aside for you. This was before halides Twisteds 180 Reef

Usually isolated areas are due to low flow in that area. If you can, adjust a pump without taking flow from somewhere else Twisteds 180 Reef

How are you making out on your cyano battle? Twisteds 180 Reef

I had to do some modifications like glue everything to heavier rocks to accommodate it but so far so good. I have so many snails that I don't see any problems since they are multiplying as it eats them and no polyp picking as of yet. I don't have any shrimp so I'm good there. The yellow polyps...

Yeah, you northern folk better watch out! The south will rise again!!! Twisteds 180 Reef

I decided to keep the scan after finding a nice spot for it. Please close. Thanks! Twisteds 180 Reef
