    Alk spike with kalk reactor

    If your PH is 8, I wouldn't adjust the Kalk reactor, I'd slow down your CO2/drip rate into your tank. That's bringing the PH down. If you slow/stop the Kalk reactor, that "problem" is only going to be worse. If you haven't done it yet this month, please oh PLEASE calibrate your PH probe.

    feeding newly intorduced anthias?

    Cyclo-peeze tends to encourage a feeding response, and I've also heard that tiger pods are a good thing to help out with feeding. Certainly increasing your pod population can only be a good thing while you get them eating. Good luck with them. Hard species to get feeding, but they'll get going...

    Dipping Corals

    As long as there is no acropora on the rock, it does NOT need to be treated, as long as it is left fallow for at least 6 days.

    Dipping Corals

    As long as you fallow your main of acros you don't need to interceptor it. They can't live beyond 6d without host acros to live on.

    Worth a Trip?

    Exotic Aquatics. Amazing store. Crazy on the weekends, but should be good during the week. Great to pair it up with a trip to Mr. Coral as they're close enough to each other. Exotic Aquatics is "on the way" to/from Mr. Coral. Mr. Coral always has some great finds in his tanks.

    Dipping Corals

    What are you trying to cure? Are all these things in your display yet? Anything you KNOW to be wrong? Why are you putting all of your existing corals in QT?

    Dipping Corals

    I wouldn't even RO SW fish... Yes. Salted. You can swish in SW, depending on what you're trying to eliminate (FW, for example), but most things won't be affected by it fast enough to kill the thing and not harm the coral.

    RO? I wouldn't be doing this with RO. Salted water, no?!

    need help: red bug and re-aqualscape

    As long as you can remove all traces of acropora from your system, you can fallow your system for 6 days and treat the corals in a separate tank during that time.

    Will corals merge?

    They do tend to grow nicely around each other though in a very cool looking teir. We have ours stacked now (hopefully) in order of speed of growth. Purple at the top, green at the bottom and a red/orange in the middle.
