I’m running a 7-stage RODI system with a 75 GPD Dow Filmtec membrane (purchased from BRS) and a RO Buddie booster pump. Normally, my TDS after the membrane is around 8 ppm, but I’ve been noticing some odd behavior lately. I only make about 20 gallons at a time since that’s the largest container...

Hey everyone, has anyone else noticed unusually high TDS from their tap water lately? I recently measured mine, and it’s coming in at around 800 ppm. I’ve also noticed my DI resin is exhausting much faster than usual. The output from my RO membrane has jumped to 36–50 ppm, which is way higher...

Selling a Rhino Reefs VFR XL frag rack, only 1 month old. It’s an awesome rack, but unfortunately, it's a bit too big for my setup. Asking: $75 (local pickup in 07065). Let me know if you're interested!

sorry, by natural splits i meant babies. also color is always a lottery, i find that red usually comes in more as they grow bigger but its always a crap shoot, i dont think cutting them will elicit any color inducing effects. i have tried cutting them back in the day and it melted.

jawbreakers do not like getting fragged. you're better off waiting for natural splits. they usually leave fragments of their feet pretty frequently, at least in my experience. color is always going to be lottery.

Hey everyone, it’s been a while since my last update, so I wanted to share a quick progress report. It’s coming up on a year since setting up this tank, and it’s definitely been a journey full of ups and downs, instability, the dreaded ugliest and a few losses along the way. However, since...

VitC acts like a carbon source so it will help with bacterial population, lower n&p and may help with coral health. Ive used it in the past and i didnt really see any improvements in overall coral health. However, someone people back in the day did, it was a popular item to dose at one point not...

welcome to NJRC!

Another suggestion—if removing the fish is difficult, consider using a breeder box to isolate a coral and observe its condition. You can try something like this: Amazon.com Make sure to place the breeder box slightly below the waterline, where flow is naturally forced in from the top, but the...

I’d suggest grabbing an inexpensive LPS coral to test how it does, and temporarily moving the coral beauty and filefish out of the tank. Observe both the new coral and your struggling toadstool to see if there’s any improvement. If your parameters are within range according to your ICP test, and...

I was actually in a similar boat but reverse lol, they were out of stock at Biota but was able to find them everywhere locally when i was looking. I was adamant with going with Biota though since i wanted to make sure it was the correct species and i also did not want to QT as Biota has a...

i wish i had space for a separate tank, i would definitely do a soft/nem tank. there are some softies that look incredible. that xenia is definitely eye catching, hopefully it looks like it does when you get it!

good advise!
