    "If you have $ for a new tank then you should have $ to add a new bathroom" Wife

    "If you have $ for a new tank then you should have $ to add a new bathroom" Wife

    You can get away with the SPS in the 24g tank, just put them up really high and don't keep them in there for too long. Just dip observe and re dip. What some people are doing is the immediately cut the frag off the disk or whatever it is on beacuse the eggs are typically laid on the undersid...

    "If you have $ for a new tank then you should have $ to add a new bathroom" Wife

    What to do first

    You can mix it in water if you are just doing a general cleaning. I really only soak things in straight vinegar if they really need it.

    Sump Equip & Specs-Is this good?

    The ATO would be on the sump chamber with your return. The water chamber does not have to be very big, I used a 5g tank on my 45g system and refilled it like once a week.

    Hurricane Sandy - Before / After

    That was an amazing tank, so sorry for your losses. If you can do it, start over. We went through this exact scenario in March of 2009 when we lost power for three days and crashed 3 tanks. I just put up a post in this thread about the first steps of starting over...
