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.
Sorry Brian, that is one devastating site! Let ma know when you are up again, I have some frags to start your tank. With regards to the magnets, not too sure if they would be a cause. I use some to mount colonies to the glass wall. Mine have some pitting/rust and corals are fine. Good luck on...
Yes, they have an inverse relation. As one goes up the other will drop, so with two part you usually dose both unless one is quite high. Your magnesium will help keep big swings with the alk and Ca in check.
I would say toss the pellets as the lack of flow and anaerobic conditions with sulfur production would wreak havoc I on your system. Now if the flow never stopped, then carry on.
Can you set up a temp tank in the basement? A bit of work but might help if the heat goes up. I would offer to hold some for you but not while I'm dealing with my current problems.
I will look later tonight, viewing from both sides would be nice. A bigger tank sounds great on paper but since I do not have a basement like most, I need to lug all my new water changes. Not the greatest idea when your tank reaches huge proportions.
So I got the permission to upgrade my tank. With all that I have now my wife had a moment of pity and...well I seized the moment. I was going 90 but Jgraz and others have convinced me to go 120. So I ask for ideas of style and brand. A point to note is this will be my final size unless we move...
If its only on a plug then take the plug out of the tank, break off algae rinse in a small container with tank water so as to rinse any spores or loose particles prior to putting back in tank
Well, what goes up must come down. I am now the most receipt member of the afew club for my DT. I have started and will continue to dip. I will have to pull 2 of the larger rocks out and drummer saw off the well encrusted red planet....sigh. I want to know is this a problem for acros only, do I...
So sorry, have some sps frags, or can cut some. I unfortunately am battling montipora eating nudis in DT. Making progress but will be a while befor I feel ok to pass frags on.
Got any pictures? For me, I used a hemostat and removed each individual polyp. Any re growth was taken care of with alk paste. My only caution is to not do it all at once, as any toxins released may cause stress/death to others in the tank. Wear protective gloves and eye wear so as not to injure...
