You can buy a Toyota or a Bentley. Buy the Toyota and be happy.

Reeflink works great for me.

I still have frags left and some have grown back! :D

Are you open today New Year day?

If it's just interested in the food, no good. At least it should be picking at the sandbed or rock. Otherwise, pass. Once eating, these fish are quite hardy. So the key is to get one that is already eating.

amado - I try to save a few bucks and this is going thru membrane too fast. Like I said before, when I had the BRS I never changed membrane, that's 5+ years of thousands of gallons. I flushed the water and it seems to have producing faster. It's doing about 30 GPD now. I created a flush system...

On a second thought I am just going to remove the restrictor and flush it for 3 minutes and see if it helps.

Anyone installed a flush valve for this unit or recommendations? The waste water line has a piece which has a mark of 450 on it. I am assuming this is the flow restrictor. I see BRS has flush valve with 400ML and 550ML capacity. The 550 is for 75GPD units. I think in a system like this the RO...

Thanks! A brand new unit is $60 the membrane is $31. The other 3 stages can be bought together for $32. So it’s probably a good idea to buy a new unit again.

Hi guys I need some help from the experts. I have the 4 stage RO Buddy from Aquatic Life. Sediment, Carbon, Membrane and DI. Recently the production has been reduced significantly. When new it was able to produce 50 GPD. I estimate that it has produced about 300 gallon of RO water so far. I...

Petsmart usually have 75g readily available.

Skimmer used 6 months. Much improved from last version, skims like a champ. Comes with a brand new pump. $100. IM media reactor pump included. $50.

Happy holidays!

John these are very difficult to keep alive long term. The success stories are few. I don’t target feed them but I do feed the tank fairly often when I am home. I have a sand bed and the two wrasses I have dig and generate detritus storm every once a while. I am hoping this is enough. There must...

The point is that the macro will stunt the growth of macro. I would keep the lighting much lower until the algae issue is under control. The ramp up the lighting. Unless you have corals that require high light.

My NPS collection. Carnation is very difficult to keep. So far everything is alive. Anyone keeping those?

Water change is not one of the ways to export nutrient. You will never do enough water changes. Plus large water changes disturb water chemistry. Corals do consume nutrient. and corals do out-compete nuisance algae. This seems to be the case in my frag tank. I have a large amount of corals...

I suggest you establish a nutrient export regime, otherwise you are just chasing you tails. There is nothing in your tank right now that consumes the nutrient so of course you will get algae. IMO the egg-crate is not a problem, even if it leaches nitrates and phosphate.

updates. Rearranged the right side of the DT. Tank is pretty much on auto pilot.
