If Eric has trouble getting the kamoer to connect to his wifi through a 2.4 ghz connection is what I worry about. Most routers have the 5 and 2.4 connections but it may be a headach for him if he needs to troubleshoot that. I have a kamoer and love it but setting it up I had to completely turn...
I would opt for the hybrid, would also retrofit reefbrites bars on the outside of the t5 to really make it overkill. Where the tank is now tho we wanted to keep the tank clean looking with the arms and not hang the light from the ceiling . The hybrid would give all around the best coverage
I plan to move my acros from the other tank and a lot of them will require strong light all over. With 2 xr15s you will be able to get really strong areas directly under the light but as you move away from it the par will drop. I needed a consistent line of par across my tank. Here is a quick...
During my weekly waterchanges on the biocube I will try to take a coral or two from the biocube to introduce it to the big tank. Corals taken will only be frags so incase something else happens the mother colonies in the cube are constantly regrowing back the trimmed area, this week it will be...
Try to open it up all the way and maybe have to lift it up more, I had mine raised on these cups that were a few inches tall. Also interesting I never seen a setup with out the wood in the stand dividing it.
I didn’t use any bottled bacteria, just threw in three chromis which is a slower version of the bottled bacteria. I really would avoid adding anything to the tank. When you add bacteria you are introducing bacteria that a system doesn’t sustain on its own at a manageable level. Within a week of...
Greg carrol on Instagram deffinitly has success with dry marco rock and dry sand . I have a tank of marco and dry sand going now so I’ll let you know when something goes amiss, but so far so good.
I would let that skimmer run, raise it up in the water for the time being so it doesn’t fill that cap too fast and just remove what starts to build. It won’t look like the normal dark green skimate we are used to it’s more of just cloudy white bubble water
I wish I could get detectable phopahates or any phopahates leaching from the rock. I started the tank with dry sand, and dry marco rock that I’m super sure had never touched a fish tank. I then filled the tank with about 20 gallons of the dirtiest water from my biocubes waterchanges. I got about...
I started the tank with reef crystals which originally had my alk at 11.2 and calcium was at 500. Within a week and a half of just letting the water run and the dry rock inside with cheato in the sump the alk dropped to 6.8. With you having a coral in there I would deffinitly test to see the...
