Folks, if you've recently upgraded or renewed your annual club membership but it's still not active, please reach out to the BOD or a moderator. The PayPal system has a slight bug which it doesn't allow it to activate the account on it's own.
Montepora, That is a nice piece, wish I had the money. I just wanted to say how cool I think it is for you to give Macna committee members a discount for their hard work and volunteering. Kudos to you
Good luck with the sale

I've thanked officers numerous times, but I could never thank them enough, so I'm jumping in with a big thanks again! These people donate THEIR time for US and have made NJReefers a great club, sometimes I don't know how they do it.
Mike this is only the beginning for your mom's club. I'm sure...
Extremely saddened by this...so sorry to hear this. Stay strong and cherish the moments you had with her. You guys have been through too much. I am sorry you had to endure this I can't imagine it. Kelly and I send our condolences to you and your family.

Good catch Phyl, That may be why it has come on so strong. I did have traces for about 2 months prior that may have been fueled by the sand stir. Oh so many variables...LOL
Thanks for the suggestion Dave, I do have or did? have three conchs in there and they moved through the sand a lot, but didn't seem to do anything. I'm sure all of my clean up crew is just as frustrated as I am trying to keep the tank clean. LOL I do not know the species, but I did get them from...
Hawkeye, thanks for the compliment. That clam actually looks small in the pic. It was only 3" when I purchased it around 6 years ago from Flying Fish Express Before Drs Foster and Smith took over. It was my first attempt at a clam. Had it on the sandbed under 2 150 halides with 2 110 vhos Never...
RBU1 Before switching I would contact Daniel on this board. I know he had problems with it. He may be able to let you know what happened so you could prevent it from happenning to you.

Re: Diatoms?
Forgot to report that I kept 4 of 8 bulbs off all day yesterday to see what happens. There was no noticeable difference.
Today I bought some salt and made 0tds water with the last of the questionable DI media( needed water badly) and added about 10 gallons of salt water around...
Re: Diatoms?
I have not changed anything for this to happen as far as dosing,feeding or lighting. The only thing I did was change the aquascaping the week after MACNA but I did have a slight trace of it for about three months prior that never grew any bigger. Between researching and all of the...
I'd like to hear or see this myself as I am contemplating the switch myself. However, I am getting amazing growth ,nice colors, and polyp extention. The only problem I am facing is a huge cyano problem which may or may not be related to Oceanic salt. My bulbs are near life expectancy so I will...
I have had the extreme a little over a year and I have made a LOT of water with it. I have well water and had to get a booster pump, so I liked the fact that the extreme has a pressure gauge and it is so nice to keep track of the tds with the dual meter. The tds alarm is not audible, however it...
Re: Diatoms?
OK, interesting find for me tonight. Looked in the tank after 4 of my 8 t5's went out for the night and within a half hr to 45 mins this stuff was barely visible on the sand and a lot less on that piece of branch rock. I also noticed some tiny bubbles in it. I do not know why I...
