    Light Timers

    Agree with Tigs, do research! I had one of those (USAs) when I started, it was good for keeping soft corals alive, that was it. When I got a few LPS I bought a second one on the cheap and put it over the same tank, it kept the LPS alive, and there was some very mild softie growth. If I were to...

    July Party orders and info!

    I've got 2 H2Opros in atm and will be doing a reefcleaners by the weekend. Hopefully more folks jump on board, even for small orders, as t will attract vendors and deals in the future for the club (blatant hint, nudge nudge).

    July 2017 Meeting (Mark_C Home)

    July meet is for our current and new members that signed recently. It was not meant as a recruitment effort and, based on the house size and my budget, I'm afraid it may get a bit overwhelming, not to mention the potential of having a large influx of unknown people showing up. I am happy to have...

    July 2017 Meeting (Mark_C Home)

    HI Diana, No, just here. Its actually our monthly club meet. All members, new and old, are welcome. But all food and expenses are coming directly out of my pocket and the meet is at my house, so I don't want to open it to anyone in NJ.

    July 2017 Meeting (Mark_C Home)

    Nope. See the ordering thread for detailed direction. Youll send an email to H2Opro with your order. They will price correct, add free items, add free shipping, and email you an invoice. Pay the invoice and pick up frags at meet.

    Exar, Drop John a mail. Tell him your a member of NJRC and are attending the meeting in Brick (that's the address he's shipping to) and was unaware of the group order. Keep in mind we're not getting a major discount on livestock, just a big discount on the overnight shipping of live and...

    July Party orders and info!

    Wooohooo. H2O Pro Deal finalized. See details above. GREAT DEAL, so good that the auto vendor couldn't combine all the discounts so it has to be done by email. Buy 2 frag/polys and get 1 of choice free, then 1 random polyp or frag added to offer, shipping free. Thats 4 for 2. Buy 4, get 2 choice...

    Check the other thread regarding raffle items and orders. We've got Reef Cleaners and H2oPro corals offering discounts on the vendor front (so far). I've got raffle donations coming in from Red Sea, Tunze, and a few other companies yet to be named. Gonna be a big one.

    RAP scores!!!

    Heya Mark! Yeah, this thing had me confused, surprised, and hoping all at once. If I still had my big tanks I would have left with one. Really a matter of curiosity to me. For the $300 or less they were looking for, it seems they may be on the way to riches, assuming it works. Curious to see the...

    Filter setup

    Heh, seems like the three of us need a Fluval forum. This is tough as there is no space in 1 for mechanical filtration. With chamber 1 being used for the skimmer, it limits your options. Cheato growth for phosphate control is not really an option here If you didn't have the skimmer you could...

    Sobo's Fluval Evo

    No. The biofilter media is designed for max surface area internally and externally through porousness. This media has holes and channels small enough that detritus can not collect in it. It acts like live rock. The ceramic rings are not as porous and lay against each other, creating hollow...

    Sobo's Fluval Evo

    For all the times I've used Chemipure (Blue, Elite, etc...) I don't think its ever outperformed carbon, decent water change, and a shot of Aquarium Water Quality & Conditioners: Special Blend Water Conditioner Growing Cheato in top section of second chamber of my Evo as well. Also, I'd advise...
