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.
Maroon,
I am running four of the sure flow 1600's, and I love them. They provide a tremendous amount of flow. They were noisy for the first couple of weeks, but once they broke in they were completely silent. I am using them with the magnet which does increase the cost of use, but also makes...
Hey Wayne. I am running a MR-2R on a 265 gal reef, and couldn't be happier with it. I would recommend it over the ETSS. Also you might be overdoing it with the MR3 on a 175, you would certainly be fine with a MR2 in my opinion. Good luck!!
Now that everybody has their Kalk reactors, I was wondering what is the proper way to change the solution inside.
Do you make up a new solution and just dump it in the reactor on top of the old solution, or do you flush out the entire reactor of the old solution, and then refill with a fresh...
OK great if there is any still available, I will take one of the lots. If I could get it at the meeting that would be great. I probably wont be able to make it, but Mike Scotto could pick it up for me.
Should I give him the cash or use Paypal, whichever is easier LMK.
Thanks!!
Phyl, what has the feedback been with this type of phos media, that was leftover from the group buy?? Which name brand is it?? Is it still available?? Thanks.
Thank you!! I will speak to Mike, and see what his results are, I actually used his Salifert kit on my tank too, and came up with the same results. so basically if his DKH is not as high as expected, we know it is Salifert. From the feedback posted here I am guessing that is the problem.
Thanks...
I know, I felt the same way when i saw the difference, its crazy.
I heard that Sera was a good test kit too, I found them on this website, and they are on sale and pretty cheap right now if you want to try them. Thanks.

Mike I am showing very similar readings and have been having the same problem since adding the Kalk reactor.
One problem might be the DKH test kit, I am using Salifert, same as you I believe and I just tested with Sera and got a DKH reading of 8, Salifert shows 14.5. So basically I dont know...
I would definitely go with the 250W setup. I originally bought the outer orbit with the 150W, regretted it and later purchased the 250W setup. Especially if you are looking to do SPS like I was, you should go with the 250W fixture.
Jim, I have had a regal for over a year in my reef tank. He occasionally nips at zoanthids, and open brains, but never enough to kill the coral.
Just realize that every fish is different so you might get a regal that might do more damage. In my opinion it is worth the risk, as it is a...
Greg, it is Shogun legends on Rt. 34 in Wall. We have been there several times and everytime there are less and less fish. There is no liverock in the tank and all the decor in the tank is made of fiberglass. Whoever is maintaining it, is doing a terrible job. It is so sad to hear that all the...
This was our first meeting as we just joined the club a month ago. I just wanted to say we had a great time, and everyone was extremely nice and helpful.
We were really impressed by how much effort everybody puts into the workings of the club. Looking forward to many more meetings.
Billy your...
