    Maxspect Gyre XF150 feedback

    I picked one up and will say it does move quite a bit of water on my 120. Noise is a slight higher pitch from the deeper mp40s I also use. However, I am a bit unhappy with this product for the following reason. I can only run it in normal flow or pulse flow above 40-50% or it stops and an...

    GYRE Settings and Help

    So I picked up a gyre and put it in my 120 tonight. Not bad as it does really punch out a lot of flow. My problem is this. If I go below 40% it stops and the center button in the ring flashes red. Manual says read trouble shooting.....none to be found in box as hard copy. Go to website to...

    Zippys tank

    John, Mark i thank you for the kind words. With regards to lighting, I think there is more than one way to skin a cat! What works for me, may not for others. There are reefers here that have tanks that are amazing beyond words. In my tank some corals look like crap, and others thrive. For...

    Geocatching

    There was one in an adjacent town that was tucked between the opposing street signs disguised as a chewed up piece of bubblegum. Pulled it off (was fake) and the magnet that attached it also held a micro container to sign in. Pretty cool!

    You might have a reef addiction if......

    As you reconfigure/design your house addition you yell at the architect " dear god man, you took away the best wall for my reef tank"!!!!!!!

    Any Idea what this can be?

    Yes to above. Alk swings will definitely do this. Best to keep parameters stable for weeks, if it progresses frag off the ends.

    New tank

    For some reason if you take a pic with the iPad I believe you need the top button to be to the right. If not the pics come out sideways or upside down. That's what I find and I'm not tech enough to know why.

    magnets

    http://www.kjmagnetics.com/proddetail.asp?prod=DC6PC-BLK these hold 10lbs, for inside tank in the water. Outside go for the cheaper epoxi coated equivalent. Like half the price. The as I say are well worth it. Never ever had an issue with the plastic coated.....quite strong so be careful.
