Although not a fish, I'd love to have a relation with a bottlenosed dolphin....Flipper! Never in a tank, but in open water. I grew up on the show, Flipper, and would have loved to have that relationship with a dolphin....and yes, I realize it was hockum!......The Lassie of the Sea...

Wow, I learned something today. I use to be an avid bicyclist.....yea, those spandex pants and all....and just realized that Shimano bicycle stuff is made by the same company that makes Shimano fishing stuff. If their fishing stuff is like their bike stuff, it's quality. I think the...

Flush kits are only for the membrane. What is does is bypass the restrictor, allowing water to rapidly flow through the membrane flushing out any larger deposits. It won't help with membrane TDS creep. That's what the valve is for....run it to waste for a couple minutes.

Here's my valve. The white line coming from the upper left corner is coming from the Membrane. To the right of the valve is the DI Resin container....and the valve is positioned to be running the water through the DI Resin. Going to the left is the waste line. When I first turn on my...

Sorry, I've been MIA with no or very limited service. The one @saltkreep88 linked is the one I use. Your line from the membrane comes into the "vertical" portion of the tee, while one "horizontal" goes to waste, and the other horizontal goes to your DI. Works great and has saved my DI by...

A couple points: Temperature of water: It sounds counter intuitive, but you're better off mixing the salt without putting any heat into it. First mix the salt, and once mixed, raise the temperature to match DT temperature. Water Volume: Have ALL your water in the mixing container before...

Cute! I'd think that would keep the kitty busy for hours. Thanks for sharing.

Great deal Matt....wish you were closer.

Well, now down to 149.....I signed up, but now can't go. If only it was on Saturday. Maybe I'll stop in on Saturday anyway.

I mentioned this once before, and it's still an issue.....when you go to link something, the background color (white), is the same color as the text (white), and it therefore looks like you have nothing there....but it's there. Need to either change the text color or background color.

Welcome Mike....I'm a 90DT with a 40B sump myself. Start a Tale of the Tank and give us details! Again, Welcome to NJRC.

Welcome Steve. How about starting a Tale of the Tank thread to document your build. Again, Welcome.

Joe, thanks...now I'm understanding what you're doing. And Bob, Apex! I run two old school ReefKeeper 2's.....is there a mod for them? :D

Joe, I was looking at my tank today, with all lights ON, and not overly happy with the look....too white. I have two Apollos, 20K each (pretty blue), not adjustable, short of the two channels, and also have the one Mars Aqua. I'm not sure I understand your wanting more white? I actually...

Looks great Juan!

Bump for a great skimmer!

Note Marcus that you will need to test for N and P while increasing doses....and once you get your N and P where you want them, that's your magic dose. I'll also agree, once you stop, you will see N and P increasing. But again, a DIY vodka, vodka and vinegar, vodka vinegar and sugar, or...

I'm not a NOPOX user, but have read a number of forum posts on it. It is simply carbon dosing of vodka and vinegar. You do need to be running a skimmer when using any form of carbon dosing. The one negative is that it could cause a bloom of unwanted bacteria. Best to start slow and then...

Total Dissolved Solids are typically inorganic salts.....both anionic and cationic portions....such as calcium, sulfate, sodium, chloide, etc.
