damn thats nice for some zoas and some encrusting monties

looks awesome Del, lots of negative space for fish to swim around and can always add more rock when you pack it up with corals!

ill take it man!

getting there...slowly

cool, yeah I figured. if it wasn't I would say you got ripped off but definitely within price for captive bred.

$100 for a yellow tang?!?! is it captive bred?

not wrong just preference for some people, I have drilled 4 holes without issue in the past. Amado is not wrong in regards to more holes will compromise the glass strength but an additional smaller hole at the top portion for yours would be no issue, IMHO

Ive used ATI and ICP-Analysis, I recommend ATI but I got some Fauna Marin ICP test that I'll be testing out.

I'm a tech geek as well and I enjoy the equipment aspect a lot, I have collected a ton of reef gear over the years but at the end of the day, once you get the hang of things, you'll find out what works for you and your tank(s) and you'll be surprised how little is really needed to keep it...

yeah, I'm not really sure. the DI should usually take out and remaining PO4 in the water and it seems like you have quality containers so I'm not really sure where the po4 would be introduced. if it was trace amounts of PO4 I would think nothing of it but a fresh batch at .29 is weird to me.

I think it is cool, but honestly I don't see the need to constantly measure elements. If there is 1 thing that needs to be constantly monitored it is Alk and even that, I'm already getting tired of. (I have a KHG and considering taking it down since its consistent testing is getting annoying...

hmm, that's interesting, its not uncommon for some PO4 to show up on with RODI water, could be leaching from your container or something but at .29 that's a bit too high. where are you storing your RODI water?

the ELOS should serve you well, I would use citric acid over vinegar on magnetic parts since vinegar can make them swell up.

I suggest getting one of these just to help guide and keep the bit centered. I use it all the time when i need to drill glass and works great. in the beginning don't add pressure, just let the bit to the work, all you're doing is really keeping the drill centered. Also, tape the other side where...

which salt brand do you use? are you using an RO system or RO/DI system?

The Fish House of DELcasso.

which phosphate checker are you using? you mentioned hanna but they have 2 that are mostly used by hobbyist Phosphorus ULR or Phosphate? if its Phosphorus ULR, thats in ppb so need to convert to ppm which converts to .24ppm (still high but notas bad as .77) If its the regular Phosphate...

Paypal has been **** in the past few years. I try to avoid using them when i don't have to.

looking awesome

reefroids will definitely raise your po4 and will feed the corals so its a win win. feed a little more than usual and if you want, take the cup off your skimmer if you have one and adjust it so that its not overflowing in the sump. will help with raising nutrients
