I did a water change today and noticed one side of the gyre pump isn't spinning. I tried to take it apart but it won't and afraid to break it. Any help appreciated.
I put my old pump back to have water movement.
I decided to test my Nitrate / Phosphate and PH as its been awhile.
Nitrate - 25ppm
Phos - 0.03ppm
PH -7.6
Not sure why PH dropped from 8 to 7.7.
Phosphate looks good.
Nitrates have me concerned.
I did realize three fish are MIA - Rabbit fish 2.5", Naso tang 3" and an Engineer goby 4"...

Not sure why Lobo doesn't do well in my tank. I never see anything bother them. The last one I bought is on the way out even taking suggestions from vendor and members here.
I really want these but not sure what is wrong. Any help appreciated as I want to get more.

Alk - 9.6
Calc -...
In another thread was posted for a member group buy from Reef Cleaners. This thread is about the customer service experienced.
The order came in and half of the inverts ended up deceased. John refunded me the 3 Emerald crabs ASAP. However, 2 days later was told by Eric and Mark_C there stuff...
What type of tile do people use to glue frags to? I have some zoa plugs in egg crate but fish keep knocking them out and I want to glue them to something to prevent this.
On this rainy day cleaned up the equipment from the 30g nem tank, Would like to clean tank better; maybe tomorrow.
Mixed RODU with my ESV Alk and Calc; topped off containers. Topped off Mag with Kent mag as well.
Tested the above and still low Alk 6.1 but tank looks good. Calc 485ppm and Mag...
Dumb question I know.
I found a frag in the sand and placed it in egg crate. Are these the same type of Zoas? No idea how I ended up with frags if the same.
I picked up this frag at a discount knowing it had Aipastia. I dipped in Coral RX and peroxide but still there. I took it out placed in a container. Is this closed Aipastia circled in red? I have Aipastia X and will treat in container.
So many scammers on Facebook Marketplace. Put up the tank, stand, skimmer and lights every IM was someone trying to scam me. Not one legit person; ready to pull the sale and keep what I can and trash everything else.
This is the dwarf angel Yates rescued and gave me to nurse back to health. The fish is fine and doing great, unfortunately I already have one and cannot add another.
Note: This is not first come first serve. Paid NJRC members will get preference. Will post before and after pics later.

I have decided to take this take down. Its never been as clean as it should be and recently picked up a large urchin from Wilmot that I found dead behind a rock.
I will reach out to who ever gave me stuff so they can be returned. Will post what's left in Deals and Steals.
My lights arrived today. The box weighs about 6.5lbs. Lights seem fine no damage in shipping. The mounts are metal. Only problem I have is the plastic screw is to long. My tank is to far back so used a very old hack saw and cot one. Fits but will need to use pliers to securely fasten. I have 3...
