Trop carries brightwell vitamin c and r2r might also have it. We have some too but not sure where it is right now in the middle of our move

Sorry to hear you lost your coral. We have found frome keeping only nanos for the past few years it small and consistent are the best ways to go. If you miss a water change in the future do 2 smaller water changes over the course of the week instead od one big one.

Welcome Greg if you need any help just shout, someone will help you out.

Think about it this way: 45g of water at 8.5 pounds per gallon: 382.5 pounds Tank itself with stand: Maybe 60 pounds (Totally making this number up, all I know is I can carry the tank by myself so it can't be that heavy) Sand and rock 75 pounds roughly Total: 517 pounds, lets round up and say...

To raise it there are buffers (I use Alk 8.3 by brightwell). To bring alk down you can do a normal water change or bring the calcium up. What salt are you using?

Almost forgot to mention, the cardinals had to be rehomed, they were getting too big. That left the tank with three gobies that hang out mostly in the rocks so if you caught the tank right, you would not see any fish at all. Nikki decided to rectify this situation with this guy:

Our scarlet hermit imitating king kong: Porcelain crab we added, tough to get a picture that shows how much purple this guy has: Gorgonian:

Some new additions: The polyps aren't out on the right side because a hermit is climbing it: Magnificent goby hiding:

Not the end of the world, you can still have a lot of fun with smaller tanks. There are plenty of options out there.

Might want to check your alk. Your PH is in line but with the no water changes and then a big water change you might have just thrown it off. We found our pico to be very tough when it comes to keeping steady water params. Xenia can survive a nuclear holocaust but for some reason alk swings seem...

We all need to buy a housing complex so we don't have to travel all over. Great stuff, will have to figure out a way to get up there. Did I mention I am hosting the meeting in august? ;)

Gorgeous dog and good on you for rescuing it.

Really nice progress, DIY seems to run in the family.

Psst, look at the title.

Look at the SWC, they are amazing skimmers and can run well within your range.

Congrats Ed and Jen.

Kevin I moved this over hear because it sounds like you are ready to plan out and build your tank. The price is good but just a few comments: I would find out how old it is and what condition the tank and stand are in. It the tank drilled or it is a HOB overflow that goes to the wet dry sump...

Oceanic makes the 45g cube, they can be ordered at almost any fish store.

First off welcome! I went through your exact situation over the last couple of years. I have been living in apartments for the past 3.5 almost 4 years and both on the second floor. We have moved a 20g, 30g, and a 12g last year and they were all full reefs. We are hopefully closing on a house...

I actually Pmed with bax but he is really far away from me and even his work location is over an hour for me. Unfortunately I don't have the time at this point to get up there nor do I want to demand he bring them down. Seeing what option were out there.
