Love the updates, what temp did the tank fall to? Matt Wittenrich actually encouraged people to bring the temp on the tanks down to about 78 because it takes the eggs longer to hatch which means they are more developed when they hatch. Good luck, we will be doing this someday so it is always...
We had ich a while back and tried several different things. We used a reef safe treatment that was garbage (don't remember the product but I think they are all garbage from what I have heard). People think the treatment is working because the white dots you see are essentially egg sacks that...
Yes they resize it. Once the pictures are uploaded in your account and you put your mouse over them, a bunch of codes for posting pops up. If you cut and paste the bottom one (html I think) into the box here the pic will open on up.
Very interested in how you do with the biopellets. I have seen them all over the place but have not talked to anyone who actually did it. Have you tried any other ULNS type stuff (zeo, vodka, brightwell, etc)?
I came across an article (granted it is pretty old) with an interview with Rommel who is know for his insane corals. In the article he says he uses T5s over all of his frag tanks. He also gives some info on the rest of his equipment.
Here is the article...
Soon enough, and we already have the T5 fixture for that. The problem is we have a flameback angel in the 20g and a flame angel in the 30g. From what we have researched they will not do well together, so we will have to keep at least one other tank up and running in the meantime. I got a lead on...
While I agree with rod that angels are beautiful (especially the angel) you might want to add the anthias first. The rule of thumb is add the least aggressive/territorial fishes first. If you add them first, they will setup their territory and can attack other "invading" fish. How big is the...
I have microbacter7 but have not been dosing it in hand with the bio fuel. Have not seen any negative effects yet, starting at the low nutrient dosage to get a feel for it (1 drop per gallon). Neither tank that it is going into has had cyano (knock on wood). Been dosing for a bit over a week now...
Currently I am dosing Brightwells amino and Brightwells Reef Biofuel. I am going to pick up KZ coral vitalizer and KZ Pohl's extra. My question is what time of day do you dose? I have been dosing at this point right before I feed and turn the lights off. Should I wait until after I turn the...
This website has made my life much easier, I now have this as an extra reminder for my wife's birthday. My next move is to setup another name with our anniversary as the birthday, then I am totally in the clear. ;D
How long have you been vodka dosing? Did you cut back your vodka dosing when the "stuff" started to appear? Are you at your maintanence level or still looking for that amount?
I currently have the oceanic 30g cube, dimensions 20x18x21, and have a geismann 250w MH pendant over it. I bought the whole thing as a package so i did not think to much about the lighting at the time. I have had the tank for almost one year and I am not totally in love with the lighting. I have...
That would be a very tough move out of state. The main thing is keeping temperature under control through the move. The drive down to florida is long and that would be the hardest part. The easiest way to do it would be to set up a tank down there in Florida and have it running before you moved...
