    Red Sea Pro Salt

    Billy, could you bring some to the meeting on Sunday mixed up as change water? I'd like to test it for NO3 & PO4.

    Bermuda Aquatics Skimmer Update

    I don't think he meant that. I think he meant that the skimmer would be adjustable with a 9.5 where it wouldn't be adjustable with the 12.

    Split, moved & renamed. Feel free to pick your own topic name (I had to name it *something*). Just let me know and I'll rename it. :)

    JCurry's 500g System Design & Build

    I'm not picturing this... How tall are your ceilings down there? Where will the lights be if the 125s are above the tank? Above as in over? Or above as in higher, but behind? Do you have drawings yet (you must be sketching this by now, no)? Meeting at Jeff's in January. Just bring your...

    JCurry's 500g System Design & Build

    That sounds great, Jeff. That small span of shift seems like it would be perfect. I'm sure you're already studying Sanjay's lighting charts! It seems to me that most ballast/bulb combinations consume far more than the 250w per bulb that they claim! Red Dragons will definitely give you the bang...

    MACNA best new product?

    Yeah that light rail really spoke to me too. And the price was really great. Jeff, how would you feel about only 1/3-1/2 of your tank being lit up at a given time? That's the one thing that makes me think I wouldn't want it on my display.

    Magnesium way to high!!!!!

    Hey Boomer! Welcome to NJRC. Glad you found your way over. I look forward to seeing you around here more often. I like your new hat, btw. Carlo, we've been considering an advanced topics forum around here. I think if Boomer wants to stick around it would be a lock!

    Absinthes 72g bowfront FOWLR

    You should add a 210! I know where you can get a really nice one for a great price! Oops! Sorry for the hijack! Absinthe, not every tank needs to be a full blown reef! Our eel/lion tank is a great tank. Very low maintenance. Just some mushrooms, anthelia and whatever else we manage to keep...

    I need to learn about calcium reactors.

    Where do you go, Mike? We may want to change shops!

    I need to learn about calcium reactors.

    When we take a tank in to refill it they ALWAYS replace it. We never get our tank back (which was a real drag the first time we handed them a brand spanking new tank). Your pressure guage/solonoid screws onto the valve there in the photo. I love your AC stats at the bottom of your post. Fun...

    Thanks from House of Fish @ MACNA

    Why they don't try to do that to begin with is almost beyond me.

    Thanks from House of Fish @ MACNA

    Russ, we had a great time with you guys. Pesky hotel staff, not withstanding. Definitely already looking forward to Atlanta where we'll have to be sure to book all of the surrounding rooms, in addition to the rooms on the floors above and below! LOL!

    Ahh the little last minute projects! Looking forward to the meeting on Sunday. It will be a great time to recap some of what we learned and saw at MACNA.

    Magnesium way to high!!!!!

    The rule of thumb I've heard is that your Ca will be at most roughly 1/3 of your magnesium. With "off the charts" magnesium, you're more likely to be able to support a very high Ca than with low magnesium. What media are you using? I'd suspect the test results and want to verify the test results...
