    How do you change your water?

    That is him. I never saw the system, but from what I heard it was the easiest water change ever.

    RO/DO Units - how many stages do I want/need?

    How many GPD are you looking to get and what is your incoming TDS? I have the 180GPD spectrapure and it is really nice. Since it is 180GPD is has two RO cartridges and two DI cartridges. Check on the chloramines, my town just went to it not too long ago and it is annoying. A normal carbon...

    How do you change your water?

    There was a member here (no longer in the hobby) that had his water changes done with solenoid valves. He just pressed two buttons, and boom full water change, it was pretty cool. I have the recric tank in my fish room and that is as close as I come. 65g water change in about 10 mins with...

    "If you want to upgrade your tank I want you to upgrade my front porch!"

    So a new media reactor? They are always helpful. Really nice picture of the kid, looks like a very fun helper.

    Jgraz's march to 200DD

    Yeah we were all pretty shocked but it works, and the addition of one mp60 give me flow in the entire tank. I could probably add another pump, or if I went BB I could turn the 60 up, but then I would be worried about my fish.

    Jgraz's march to 200DD

    I think are single overflow runs about maybe 300gph, so hence the down grade.

    Jgraz's march to 200DD

    Sorry for the delay: The under the sink pump is the Liberty Pumps 404 automatic drain pump 1/3hp. Right now the return pump is a blueline 55 and a 45 is running the manifold. Originally we had a 70 on there, but the Elos overflows are rated for such low flow, we took it off. We still have the...

    ELOS owners - question on the overflow

    I understand being distracted in that store, lots of goodies. Ours is in our living room which we spend 99% of the time in our house (outside sleeping) and we have no issues with it.

    PH dropping overnight

    If you have a refugium, turn the lights on the refugium at night, the opposite of your diplay lights. This will help to keep your PH stable over night. If your tank and corals look fine, don't ever worry about it. One of the problems with PH probes is people try to chase the ideal PH and do...

    ELOS owners - question on the overflow

    I have the Elos 160xl, drilled on the bottom corner overflow. The comment I hear most on the tank it how quiet it is, so I don't think you have to worry there. Have you gone to the Elos Aqua Studio to see the tanks?

    The 210 tank build

    Hulas came from Ao. So far they are great, they swim together and are very fun to watch. Our tank has been at 75 so we will see how they do. Very happy Ora started breeding these guys.

    Butterfly and pod cultivation setup

    +1 to the live blackworms. There are threads on RC where people built feeders for their BF to feed blackworms and other foods if they were really stubborn. BF are really cool, but since I have a reef I will have to live through yours.

    The 210 tank build

    99% of the time they are peaceful and just swim around not bothering anyone. The only time I saw any aggression at all is when I added the hawenisis anthias because they were roughly the same size and shape. The big borb would chase them around a bit, but after a few weeks nothing. Now they...

    Makes sense and thank you for the response. This is going to be very tempting, that is a lot of people to see at one shot.

    Jgraz's march to 200DD

    Yeah, go with the super flex PVC for the return pump up to the tank and visa versa. Ethan swears by it and it allowed us not to have many (if any at all) 90s. Another thing to think about is UV, we added one after years of being naysayers, and I think on a system that big, the good outweighs...

    The 210 tank build

    We have two, I think they are a pair, but they do just fine together. As I said, not a cheap fish but the prices online are more than we paid. We got them from AO and Elos and did not pay what say Liveaquaria has them for. They fit what we want in the tank, reef safe, peaceful (for the most...
