Agreed. Lately I've been ordering more off the net and paying shipping. I have a well established tank at this point and I'm pretty good with my livestock, so its been about 8-9 months since I actually purchased a fish and I dont anticipate any fish purchases soon. Same with corals. I have a...

This is like asking a kid what they like better, ice cream or cake. I’ve used both, as well as Maxspects, black boxes, and a few others. They’re both excellent lights. It comes down to preference. In the past I ran a Prime over a 25 lagoon. I tried a Kessil at one point, which looked amazing...

I'm talkin about the storefront :)

Nice to see this thread coming along and providing some great info. Think this may justify a seahorse subsection imho.

Dude. When does the shop open?

Baster it was. Tilted the tank, stirred it up so sediment fell to the low side, siphoned off 8oz or so with baster. Water was mildly green with spirulina, which I'm assuming will be eaten by the tank pods and such, and it was packed with pods. Hopefully this survives a while. Mark, going to...

Nice find on the stand. Good luck with it.

Decision made. From front to back... ATI Blue+ Geissman Super Actinic ATI Aquablue Special (full spectrum, more white) ATI Blue+ Thanks for the info folks. Also snagged some new RODI filters and, egads!, a Hanna Alk checker (yes, I'm starting to actually monitor, Im sure this is where it all...

Thanks for that Diana. Based on the profile of the Coral+ I think its out, will most likely go with 3 blue+ and 1 actinic.

Thats what I'm figuring out tonight :)

I filled a 2.5g tank 1/3 of the way with 1.021 water about 6-8 weeks ago. I poured a bottle of Reef Nutrition pods in. I added a bit of spirulina powder which I had about as a smoothie additive (enough to turn the water light green). I left the tank on a table. No lights aside from when the room...

Sponge, I'm using the Hydras to supply some decent UV atm and its working well MrX, hadn't considered the true actinic, after 30 mins research, its definitely in the mix, cheers Mark, I have the coral+ as a possible. Its hard to run pairs as I do want to cover a number of spectrums on only 4...

Running 3 Hydra 26HDs over a 100g tank (4'x2'x2'ish) in a 36" ATI hybrid mount (4 bulb). Recently ran a blue+, coral+, purple+, and a UV, as my first go. OK growth, decent coloring, but low flourescence and minimal pop. Now its time to change bulbs. Was thinking... Blue+, Blue+, Purple+, Blue+...

Other concern is finding a new, quality Alk and CA test kit.

If youre down in Brick area before the $1 per gallon, Ive got one for you.

Joe, Ran the RO buddy for a few years. It sounds like the membrane. Whenever I replaced it production was back up.

I'm doing my annual semi-annual change out of my T5 lamps and my RODI filters. Thought it might be a valid suggestion for a recurring group order to save us all a bunch on shipping. Maybe even do a few versions, North, Central, South? I'll hold off ordering for a week to see how this idea is...

Hey all, hope the holiday went well :) So, I'm dosing right now and its all pure guesswork. I'm hoping to get some insight. Currently my Alk is low, as is my CA (but not as low). Not going to share numbers just yet, mainly as I havent measured in a week or so. But, regardless of the ignorance...

Everyone have fun. Thats an order.

Welcome aboard. I'm the smart good looking one.
