    Source of p04? Could it come from the water bottles??

    Wow, just checking back to this thread and can't believe the test results you got. I'm not saying you're wrong, but I never would have expected it to be that high. I know Bob and if he says it's accurate, then I believe him. Besides, as Bryan said, even if it wasn't 100% accurate, the LFS water...

    Tsunami video

    Wow, Mother Nature aint no joke! Catching the earthquake affects in the beginning was impressive but recording all the footage of the tsunami as it was happening was really intense! A horrible tragedy for sure, but amazing footage that was cool to watch. I mean, I'm not glad it happened or...

    Ecotech and Aqua Illumination are merging

    I wonder if they merged just so that they both keep the MAP pricing and keep the "market value" on the upper end for at least 2 of the major players in the market. :eek:

    "If you want to upgrade your tank I want you to upgrade my front porch!"

    Uh oh! That doesn't sound good. You don't have time for that right now though... you got a tank to setup! ;) The skin is starting to look good. Can't wait to see it all finished up and put together. Oh, and I may take you up on the stain offer. It will give me an excuse to come see this...

    "If you want to upgrade your tank I want you to upgrade my front porch!"

    Wow Matt, wish I had been following along on this build. I've been avoiding ToTT threads just due to time constraints but figured I'd check this out to see how you're making out. Man, everything looks great! I have a couple questions: 1. How do you plan to hang the front door of the stand? You...

    Jersey Devil Chalice frag

    I thought I couldn't see it just because I wasn't a member there. The thread is gone?

    Source of p04? Could it come from the water bottles??

    Now that I see you are getting RO/DI from a LFS, I would have to agree with Praveen here. I'm not saying OG/Pets Plus is a bad source... but when you aren't personally making the RO/DI and checking with a TDS... there's no way to be sure it's pure and clean. Bryan, I would highly suggest you...

    Aww man, went to Aquarium Center today

    Yea, I'm in there a couple times a month as well and have been speaking to Val a lot about their coral section. I always take the time to speak with her about their selection and pricing to give them some feedback. She/they have been very receptive to my recommendations and I agree they have...

    Source of p04? Could it come from the water bottles??

    What type of lighting do you have on that tank? If you are using T-5's, how old are your bulbs? Also, is it near a window in your home? I'm not saying there is no phosphate issue (it could be leaching out of your rocks) but at the same time, there are certain lighting conditions that promote...

    Jersey Devil Chalice frag

    Very nice looking piece, but given all the tragedy stories... makes you wonder if this is just a fragile specimen to begin with. Mike, do you happen to know where Steve at Ultra got it from? Maybe his supplier still has some?

    Fire Coral for Rutgers - Institute of Marine and Coastal Sciences

    Bump! I kind of knew this was a long shot due to the nature of what they are looking for... but I was hoping at least one person might have some. Yes, that is what they are looking for Mike. Thanks for the link.

    NJRC Donations

    As some of you may know, last year the club made substantial donations to two different organizations because we wanted to help support their efforts of education and conservation. Those donations were: - Coral Restoration Foundation (CRF) - $5,000.00 - Rutgers University, Institute of Marine...

    Baking Alkalinity Solution

    I would agree with Paul. While ultimately you will want pure calcium chloride, the percentage of those other chloride "cousins" is very minimal. At max, you're looking at around 6% total for all of them combined. Also, it's important to note that natural saltwater (in the oceans) contains...

    I'm considering the same thing for my 120g upgrade so will tag along on this one.
