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.
Glad to hear you're back in the game Phil!
My pair had recently spawned some eggs, and I've seen the male cleaning them, etc. There was only maybe a couple dozen eggs, but I never saw them hatch. After a couple days went by they were all gone. This happened like 3 times over the past couple...
It says it's non-toxic, but I'd have to agree with Paul. You shouldn't need anything more than teflon tape for your aquarium plumbing... and that's proven to be safe.
Meh, I'm not impressed and I don't even think it's a "cheap substitute" at all.
For one, Coralife always seems to try to make cheap versions of all the good equipment in the hobby. However, they also tend to be cheaply made and hardly ever compare to the better name brands in quality and...
I don't have a Queen Angel, but I do have an Eibli Angel, which is also supposed to be one to watch for in reefs. I haven't had any issues yet (only a few weeks after him being in a QT for a month).
When I first put him in the QT, I added a small zoa frag, a piece of red macro algae, and even a...
You might want to check your phosphate readings over the next couple days since you removed what was eating it.
Sounds like you are the right track to solve the HA problem though.
I guess that too would depend on the in-let TDS for whoever is testing the RO/DI.
I haven't kept track of gallons made nor gallons wasted with my RO/DI, but I know I've only changed the carbon and sediment filters on mine and I've had it over a year. The DI resin is the "color changing" type...
Silliest thing I ever heard!
For one, they aren't banning the right to own pets. They are just trying to make it illegal to sell them in San Fran. All this will do is make pet stores close up shop or move to another town. It will cause problems with people losing their jobs and/or businesses...
I think it's a hoax too. If you look at the side pic, it looks like the "eye" is right where a mouth should be. The front looks too boxed off, like they filled it in with putty or something to hold in the eye.
Then look at the mouth in the other pic. That's a weird looking jaw for a shark. It...
That's an interesting thought. I don't know how the vortechs compare in a long narrow vs in a cube. You would think that the longer tank would require more flow (to reach the other side) but then again, there is less resistance on the sides in a narrower tank.
A cube would seem like it's a...
I'm using a single MP-40 on my 75g mixed reef (anthelias, acans, hydnophoria, ricordias, zoas, favia, branching hammer, open brain, sebae anemone, red "modern" coral, purple bonsai, couple different montipora, tri-color sps, etc.... I'm sure I missed a few too) and I get decent flow for all of...
