    Amiracle SR-200 and Seaclone 100 skimmer

    Never had the wet/dry, but the SeaClone skimmer was singularly the worst piece of equipment I've ever owned.

    My fish are dying...:(

    FWIW, initially, I'd use the tank water, if it's param's are good, it would cause less stress in moving the fish. Whatever treatment you decide on will kill the dinospores anyway.

    My fish are dying...:(

    Diagnosis is the first problem here. If it's Brooklynella, then Fromalin would be a better choice. I think I'd look at the Kordon site and do a little reading. They should have a number of products to help here. I know I've use Copper-Tru and Fromalin 3 for this type of problem, with success in...

    My fish are dying...:(

    I would go with a 20 gal. bare bottom tank and try hypo salinity first. If that doesn't work you could try some cupramine. I'd put some pieces of PVC in the HT for the fish to hide in. You'll have to allow your DT to lie fallow for a couple of months or more, before re introducing fish.

    Dave’s 90g learning-curve glass room experiment

    Be careful of any PH's that you may have running in the tank, until they find a spot they're happy with they'll float around and potentially get trapped in the intake and become BTAburger.

    Pods in refugium but not in DT? .. DIY POD Condos

    I used to use a plastic bath loofah tied to a piece of LR. Make sure you do it after lights out, to minimize predation in the DT.

    I don't know what your time table is, but the last time I had to break down my tank, I cooked my rocks getting them ready for my next set up.

    FS or Trade 72" MH light fixture - South Jersey

    The MH's were originally 10,000K and I replaced them with XM 15,000K, to pick up a little more blue. The 4 Actinics are true 03 Coralife. The original spec's should be in the MD link in the first post.

    There's no rush, I'm still doing the retro on my canopy, so another week would be about right anyway. I did see the thread on your 75..nice tank.

    FS or Trade 72" MH light fixture - South Jersey

    Take my wife, please. Actually I'm no longer married. I didn't have anything in mind for a trade. I didn't want to limit it to just cash if someone had some really drop dead beautiful corals they wanted to part with. I'm setting up my QT so I can cure a 50 lb. box of Pukani Dry that's been...

    I have it on the tank mounted legs, so the light is 4 1/2" above the surface of the water. The top of the fixture is 5 1/2 " above the top of the tank.

    Kessil LED's

    I did see that, but thought there were too many inconsistencies between them. One is the weight, the blueline comes in at 11 lbs. and the amazon at 7.5, the amazon claims it will replace a 400w MH, the blueline a 250MH. So, it seemed like if something looks too good to be true.....
