    Inherited 90

    Would like to see how that cap (if it is a cap) on the top is going to react with the change. How far from the water line are the led's? I'm thinking that they should be raised pretty high since they are not controllable. I can bring my par meter with me if you like when I bring the tub back to...

    Vinegar Dosing

    Glad this is working for you. Are you dumping the vinegar all at once in the sump? Does the tank have a vinegar smell to it? Are you running carbon?

    300 Gallon upgrade

    Thanks Bax I'm actually going to try some magnets that I got from some hard drives that I got from work. Never new the magnets in them were so strong.

    Help with acrylic tank!

    You can always use an old credit card to clean the acrylic. About the scratches, They sell kits to remove them. Make sure they are not to deep or else you will be sanding all day. Check out youtube. They might have some videos on it.

    What is best method for securing/bonding LR?

    I like the hole and peg thing. If you get tired of looking at the same aquascape, you can move some rocks around easily. I don't know how easily rocks can separate once its epoxy together. I never tried it.

    300 Gallon upgrade

    Thanks Taz Here is where I'm at with the stand. I have no idea how I'm going to finish it. I would love to be able to remove the front panel in one piece, but 8 foot is pretty long. I can do 4 feet but than there will be a line in the middle. I just might go this route. I wll have the panels...

    300 Gallon upgrade

    Well, I wasn't sure if I should start a build thread as this is going to be a slow process and I have been pretty busy lately. I'm upgrading from a Oceanic 215 gallon tank. You can find the build thread here, http://www.njreefers.org/showthread.php?67566-Ricwilli-s-215-build. When I purchased...

    Need some advice on a pump for my sump

    The pumps that Nickj recommended should be good. The bad thing about them, is that they run hot. I like the eheim pumps. The 1262 would be great. You can run it on a manifold to run other stuff like gfo or carbon reactor. Which Nickjr also mentioned.

    Coral dipping

    That method works. I have been using it for a while now. I also have Revive and prefer the Bayer than Revive. I use 5ml of Bayers to 2 cups of saltwater. Others have used stronger dosage with no ill affect to the corals. I dip all my SPS, and LPS other than Scoly's. I have never lost any of my...

    Ricwilli's 215 build

    Well, here is a pic of my sad looking tank. I lost lots of corals. The current corals are not doing so well either. I took this pic today as I will be taking it down soon. I will be upgrading to a 300 gallon. I'm debating if I should start a build thread for the 300 as it will be a slow process.
