    For the Southern NJ Reefers

    I'm in South Jersey... exactly where in south jersey were you looking for? Almost everyone is between 30 to 45 minutes of me since it's not as densely populated as the northern areas. Search some threads, we have a very healthy population of reefers down here.... as far as friendly prices, i...

    What is your light schedule like?

    yeesh. i look at old pics now and wonder how I did it. I still have the bulbs though. Maybe I'll tease the corals into thinking they lost their ozone layer tonight :)

    Purple up?

    scrape off coralline off your glass and then have him add purple up~ much faster results! and even much faster if his water is in check.

    Purple up?

    then he wouldn't really need it, it's more beneficial for a reef-type tank IMO

    Purple up?

    used it in the beginning. It simply boosts up the necessary elements needed to increase the growth of coralline algae. One can do the same with water parameters in check +1 notch up. Increase Magnesium, Alkalinity, Strontium and Calcium and add a few scrapings of coralline algae and you'll have...

    would this work?

    why not soak the rock in old tank water with a pump for a week or two to jump start the curing process? This should also lessen the toxins (if present) in the rock through diffusion. I would change the water every few days with siphoned tank water. Perfect excuse for a water change too! I...

    Sump return – Siphon Break, Check Value, or What?

    I used to have a check valve, but they reduced the output flow of the pump a little much for my liking. My current tank has no check valve anymore. I also had a siphon hole on a few of my returns, but found that they got clogged anyways, I just eliminated them. I know of a fellow reefer who had...

    copperband in a reef?

    They are the "safer" of the butterfly species. But I agree if you have reservations. You should see what I just got in my tank~ talk about me being scared.....

    February Meeting - Saturday the 21st in Jackson, NJ

    more food available due to one less individual/s being able to consume aforementioned nourishment. AND you will be missed! I dunno if I can make it either, depends on how fast I can drive back from the west coast.. I took time away that week until the 23rd more food for everyone +1

    Timer ?

    my friend uses it for their UV on his outdoor pond. If you're only plugging in one thing, the manual timer at HD works just as well, but it will not give you multiple set points per day. I use 2 for my setup, one for my T5's (4X54), the other for my halides (2 icecap 250's and a 12V adapter...

    SPS browning out FAST!

    that shouldn't be causing them to brown out. as a matter of fact, they should be "popping" or glowing
