Diego, Here is an thread you might find interesting. Really only focuses on nutrients but this is pretty much exactly the way I have been approaching SPS keeping of late http://www.reef2reef.com/threads/sps-suck-the-acro-fugium-write-up-i-guess-i-finally-finished-this-thing-sort-of.216694/

This should be fun to see the answers. I use Instant Ocean, and been doing so for quite some time now.

Also, If I'm not mistaken. Hypo will wipe out any other life not a fish. Including the bacteria that keep your cycle going. Please look into that.

I'll offer my take as well. My system is also mixed though very heavily dominated by SPS. Zoas, Palys and Shrooms do not do well for me, all stay very small and offer little to no growth. LPS on the other hand do well. I have a decent variety of LPS including a large hammer and frogspawn that...

Like Kevin stated the only way to defeat it would be to pull all fish and let DT go fallow. With fish in QT you would either treat with copper or Hypo. Then you would have to be absolutely sure that anything you ever add to the system goes through a fishless QT including well anything. Myself...

Is there a rain storm coming?

They are programmed to run the entire time any lamp is on. So 12 hrs

Indeed they are. I definitely here them over everything else in my system, and I run open top so they are more noticeable.

Glad to see everything come through good.

Sunny I think you will eventually come around. If it is anything like I went through, you will get a pretty big shift in colors. Colors you are used to will disappear and new ones will come around. All in all I think mine took almost 6 months to settle in. I picked up a bunch on corals from...

Thank you for your reply

I bet those fish would like to partake in a little pain relief

Easy there son. Once again I asked a question and 2 board members went on the defensive. You, yes you insinuated that you are the only board member doing anything. True or not, don't know, don't care. That is for you to take up with the rest of the board. But the fact that only 2 of the board...

Not you. Apparently I went at the wrong person in another thread

There is at least one other who knows how to delete a thread with the greatest of ease.

Just make sure the switch is in a place that won't drain to much is skimmer goes nuts.

As long as there is room in the collection cup to run a float valve
