    Garlic Laced Nori

    UPDATE:  As the Cream of Garlic cooled, it turned into cement.  So I added about ½ cup of RO and 4 capsules, 300 mg each of fish oil (note, pure fish oil without lemon).  Brought this back to a boil and continued filtering.

    Opinion – Wavemaker function on Reefkeeper 2

    Yes, and cracking the manual (I have both a RK2 and a RK-lite), it appears to be slightly different to the RK2...it doesn't have a "C" option. But again, I want to empasize that it is not "wavemaker," it is actually "CurrentChanger."

    Garlic Laced Nori

    Rod and I went on a road trip today and made a few stops. One of the places was the Hong Kong Supermarket on Route 18 in East Brunswick. We were there to buy algae. First off, not speaking the language made the search a little tougher. We first ended up in the “regular” algae isle and just...

    Garlic Laced Nori

    I will agree that a lot of the info on garlic is anecdotal, but so was chicken soup for the common cold until they finally did studies to prove some efficacy. The only thing that I have found that is backed with research is the antibacterial effect of garlic and the appetite enhancing effect...

    Opinion – Wavemaker function on Reefkeeper 2

    Well here’s my opinion after a day of playing. I set all three up using the A, B, C functions on the RK2. Using all three letters, it runs A and C while B is off, then B only while A and C are off. Powerheads A and B are on the left side of the tank, while C is on the right. For the sake of...

    Opinion – Wavemaker function on Reefkeeper 2

    It is too new to tell, but the one 1400 that I’ve had for a couple of weeks has always started in the right direction. I shut them off when I feed. Now, one of the older K-4’s almost always starts backwards, and I have to un-plug and plug back in until it is going in the right direction.

    Opinion – Wavemaker function on Reefkeeper 2

    There are other reasons to purchase these new models over the old ones. They have a smaller profile, with the 1400's, pump a little more over the older K4's, and here's the big one for me, wanting to be as "green" as possible; they use less than half the power. So I just got back from Will's...

    Opinion – Wavemaker function on Reefkeeper 2

    I have a Reefkeeper 2 and the NEW Koralia Evolution 1400 powerheads. Should I bother using the wavemaker function on the RK2? Does it offer a benefit to the tank? And by the way, it is a 90 gallon tank, five feet long. If yes, what program would you recommend?

    Garlic Laced Nori

    I found this recipe over on Aquariacentral: I use 100% organic garlic powder. I put 1/2 cup in one cup of RO water and microwave 1 minute to boiling in a glass. I let it sit until it cools. I pour the mixture into a coffee filter and squeeze the liquid out into a jar with a good lid...

    When all is going well with our tanks, why can't we just leave well enough alone

    Ahhhh! The good old days! Now I have this noose around my neck if the form of a 90 reef tank.. Hey, how did I get sucked into this conversation? Rod, if you don’t apologize to my guppies, I’m coming over with a couple hundred of them to put in with your discus. They are so upset they’ve started...

    Garlic Laced Nori

    Is anyone aware of a recipe for making garlic laced nori? That is, if you buy Asian market nori, is there a way of infusing it with garlic? And I would prefer a homemade recipe over telling me to squirt Kent Garlic Xtreme (Or some other brand), on the Nori.

    Merv's new 40 gallon build

    Rich, I like it….you’ve solved one of my concerns.  I want a way to “valve” off the water to the pump for those times you have to pull the pump out for maintenance.  I have been very concerned in putting a ball valve just off the bulkhead, especially on a glass tank.  The torque you put on the...

    Reefkeeper Lite Temperature Calibration

    Well my story gets better. I just recently picked up a Reefkeeper 2 and calibrated the temperature of the RK 2 to the Reefkeeper Lite’s temperature. I actually did this for maybe three days straight of readjusting the calibration so that they matched. I think the last calibration I did they were...

    Merv's new 40 gallon build

    Merv, fantastic Tale of the Tank. Love all these pictures…shows some real quality work being done. Great job. I’m going external with the pump and I have a question about your pump setup. Oh, I will be using rubber stoppers for vibrations…great idea. What is that first piece you have after the...
