I got my test results back this morning. I haven't looked at any remedies yet, but would love peoples input.
I do have some bubble algae & some brown sand, but otherwise my corals are all open, good color, and growth(probably be more with my alk being up lol). Could it be my nitrates are...
On June 6th I started trying to culture tig pods. I'm unsure if its going successful. I think i might of put too much phytoplankton smothering the culture. I thought by now I would see tons of adult pods but I don't see that many scurrying around. Should I wait more? Or any other advice.
I got...
Had this goni in my tank for months and about a month ago i woke up and it was bleached. Thought it was dead but noticed some extention and still had some red to it. I was going to move it but it has a ton of feather dusters on it.
Should I just leave it be? The rest of my corals are fine...
I purchased one on Sunday & put it in my QT tank. He was eating fine & i come home today & he's dead. No visible signs of infection can a QT tank un-cycle itself? Showing no ammonia and 8ppm nitrates. Last time I had a fish in here was a month or so ago. I did 2 water changes on sat/sun before...
Man, last week I thought I had hidden dog poo in my basement. I then realized it was coming from my skimmer. I have an AIO so the skimmer is out in the open & its hooked up to an O2 scrubber.
I currently have a small bag of carbon on top of it & it might be working, but i only cleaned the...
I'm watching videos & I'm reading articles.
I'm looking to dose kalkwasser in its own container through hydros system. I do not want to put it through my ATO or have a separate reactor.
I'm confused with the ATO evaporation. I don't want to it to decrease the salinity.
I have 2 ato sensors, 1...
I'm awful at gluing frags.
I've been using gorilla glue, but sometimes that's not good enough.
Yesterday, I tried glue combined with 2 little fishes putty. All I did was make a mess & it didn't stick LOL.
What do you use?!!?

Where do you have your MP series placed?
(New sand/Tank setup as of last month. Fiji pink + special grade)
I have an MP40 on the back right top & then have one front left lower w/ anemone guards. The lower left is blowing the sand everywhere. I also took the guards off last night because the...

Tore down this tank a few weeks ago for an upgrade.
Purchased a few years ago by a fellow reefer, but only setup August 2024
Superficial scratches on the front. I shined a light on it while it was dirty so you can get the full picture. However, it's not really...
Upgraded on Tuesday from a IM 30L that I setup in August 2024.
Picked up a floor model SR80 Pro from the Hidden Reef during black friday.
Surprisingly, transferring everything over from the 30L went smooth. Mainly because it was going in a different spot & I had it filled with water & heated...

Been out of the hobby since 2013. I really can't believe it's been that long.
Last summer I picked up an IM 30L & stand from a fellow NJ reefer. I picked up some other bits and pieces that summer & stopped.
Fast forward to June 2024 & we bought our first house in Hillsborough where I can...
