sure...the only downsides are: the tunze pump will go kaput sooner - but it's not too bad since those oz pumps are not crazy pricey. The other thing is that I thought the kalk needed to avoid exposure to O2 to get the best saturation. Hence the reactor. You do not necessarily need that reactor...

Re: For Sale 120 gal is this located in hawthorne?

Switch420 - do you have an ATS? Can you post your experience? From everything I have read - it makes zero sense to replace your skimmer for an ATS. Advocating such makes me wonder why you feel this way? I will summarize my analysis like this: Have you ever seen the gunk in a skimmer cup? Have...

I set up a PM kalk reactor (purchased during a group buy) that is hooked into a tunze osmolator. The Osmolator detects when water is low, and pumps the water from the reservoir into the reactor. The kalk saturated water is then dosed into the tank. My only issue is that because the top-off...

I used an american dj power panel and "mounted" it under the middle support bracket of my aga stand. Some people will mount it flush to the door panel. I did it this way to make it easier to pull the plugs out if I needed to. Then I went and picked up a bunch of cheap cable ties and went nuts...

send a pm to ao and i'm sure he'll line you up with one!

I was watching one of the new nassarius vibex snails try to flip itself over and watched as the yellow coris proceeded to jet over and attempt to rip the snail out of it's shell. I had been wondering why all my nassarius only come out at night now. Also been noticing a lot of empty shells. I...

vodka could also feed cyanobacteria in a major way.

so....how big is this tank to have: blue hippo flame angel yellow tangs (plural - how many?) harlequin tusk clown trigger goby ....? Understanding the tank size and number of fish can help dictate whether a disease like ich can be controlled or not. If there is constant intimidation or...

A foxface IS a rabbitfish. It's not a scribbled one. S. vulpinus is known as the "Foxface Rabbitfish" but people just called it a "foxface". They are very good about eating algae but as far as I can recall - they are prolific poopers like tangs. The one positive I like though is if you have a...

Agree with the above post...totally normal for anemones to inflate and deflate. how big of a tank and what kind of lights do you have? I like to also see whether a nem has the energy reserves to ensure it's tentacles can grab food easily (e.g. they are sticky to the touch). What kind of anemone...

the tunze 7096 also has the feed button. With the pumps on during feedin, food would get blown into LR and I believe I was feeding my verimitd snails instead of my fish.

I feed cyclopeeze and some small pellets once a day. As much as can be eaten in less than 2 minutes (the timer by which the pumps kick back on). I will note that I use a turkey baster to get a pellet or two down to my pearly jawfish. New fish, not used to eating like the others quite yet and I...

Reef Safe? hahah....i guess if any fish is big it can try an swallow smaller fish.

Blue Spots grow a lot bigger than the pearlys and I saw a pic where the tail of a firefish was sticking out of the BSJ's mouth....lemme see if I can dig it up.

The softner is preventing the hard water from depositing minerals all over your pipes, appliances and drinking water. A slight uptick in the TDS should not be a concern. Not sure why that is happening - but then again I've never measured my tds before the softner. As I undersatnd it the softner...

I am not sure of the idea of blacking out the right side - as in like with a piece of black background? Whatever you try do not do it permanently as it will make re-sale of the tank (if that ever occurred) to be difficult. 7" is a lot of space imho. You could set a single vortech on that side.

Those are really great pics of your trip to indiana. Thanks so much for sharing. Iknow all of this could have been summed up with the "nice pics" post but that has been said many times I just hate using that phrase... ;) Did they allow you thru the drygoods warehouse or no? I was thinking it...
