    General pricing

    I believe all stores should have a $10 $20 $30 Section of frags. I get my stuff from local reefers. I find a lot of stuff from people on this forum. Danger Dave is worth the drive.

    aquatic life or giesemann t5 hybrid

    like I said I own that light and I have it over a frag tank at 18 the light is not in the middle its spilling out. the hybrid work better for a 24' tank. that way they sit in the middle and have less light spillage. I would use the nicrewlight and it should be fine. finding bulbs for the T5 are...

    aquatic life or giesemann t5 hybrid

    Ok so I actually have two aqua life lights. For a tank that size I would go with just two leds. The aqua life fixers are too wide for a tank that small. You need a tank 24” wide for it to work perfect. Your tank is only 18” wide you will have a lot of light spillage. I would go with two leds...

    Fish room build “this is the way”

    From what I read you want to keep it over 400. Your ORP drops every night. 390-320 I think that’s a big drop. It’s a good indicator of needing to change carbon/ GFO or maybe you need a large water change.

    Fish room build “this is the way”

    Do you run carbon/ GFO ? That’s very low most people run their tank over 400

    Fish room build “this is the way”

    So it’s a new month so I just did a water change. I also changed the carbon and GFO media. I have to say the cobalt products are working. My water is crystal clear and my orp is over 420 I think that’s the highest it’s ever been. Took a full tank picture I almost have a year with this setup. I...

    Looks like BRS has been acquired

    I get my salt locally from reefco since they are the only ones that carry fritz blue box around me. But since I have such a large system I am not loyal to any salt I get whatever is on sale. It’s funny how people make such a big deal about salt. If we are buying salt to make food at home no...

    I would think they should stop selling salt. That’s one of the products that don’t ship well. I think they need to stop selling all salts. That’s to expensive to ship heavy salt boxes across The country.

    Looks like BRS has been acquired

    BRS like every other business can’t compete with amazon. I am a prime member and on some items I get it the same day. It’s crazy. Amazons prices are also cheaper. I think this is a smart move by BRS. Cash out while you can. If we keep having closures like Fiji and Hawaii I think this hobby will...

    Looks like BRS has been acquired

    I don’t know the numbers is it’s private transaction. But I think BRS doesn’t need more money. The salt water hobby is already tiny. I would think they are making a killing on the YouTube channel. Retail is a horrible business. I know Amazon keeps eating at their profits. Shipping rates keep...

    Back in the Game

    Wow that is a great looking tank. That’s the shallow tank I would go with if I was doing a big tank. Good luck with the build

    Yellow Tang Alternative

    From my Expirience urchins eat more algae than any tang. I try to keep a fox face in every tank I feel they also eat more algae than tangs. If your tank is small I would go with a lawnmower blenny. Sea hare also will eat more algae than any fish.

    Kalk vs 2 part to start

    You don’t need a stirrer. I don’t use one I dose kalk directly from my 7 gallon container ($12 Walmart). I have never had a problem with dosing kalk direct. I add water and 14 teaspoons of kalk to 7 gallon of water. I do this every week. I dose 1 gallon of the kalk mix every day. Every hour I...

    Kalk vs 2 part to start

    I do both. Dosing kalk on a doser not a ato will be your best practice. You can get a 4 head doser. To dose 2 part, kalk And mag. Kalk is cheap and it’s easy to dose.
