Thanks again for all the input everyone... I did have a few cukes in the tank, But they were small, and honestly, I haven't seen them since the first week of the invert buy, so I think they died awhile ago. They were tiny as well... I think my cleaner shrimp are loving it though.. I saw them...

Tank is in the basement, furnace is in the basement, but in a totally different area. There is a carbon monoxide detector in the basement. I guess fumes could get in the Bilco's, but there is a door between the bilco's and the room, nothing near the bilco's other than the dryer vent. There is a...

That was another thought... I don't have a Dissolved Oxygen Test Kit, so I couldn't really be sure. But I have a lot of surface agitation in the tank, and lots of turbulance in the sump. Then there's the skimmer.  The room the filter is in isn't insulated very well, so there is plenty of air in...

Nice picture! I think it's an LTA (Long Tentacle Anemone)

Nope...No meds or additives..,I did kalk a few aiptasia a few days ago... I wouldn't think that 3ml of Kalk Paste put on a few spots of the rock would hurt anything, especially 2 days later. My Salinity was one point off using my refractometer. 1.024 vs. the usual 1.025. I wouldn't consider...

Thanks Greg.. There has been no difference in what I feed them.. In fact I didn't feed them yesterday. Just some Nori, but it's the same nori I have been using for awhile now. When the hell do I decide to put fish back in?? Considering I don't know what killed everything!

I'm still confused as hell, I've been staring at the tank trying to figure out what could have went wrong. I thought about stuff on my hands...but I put my hands in after I found them all dead. All the other fish look fine... no spots,patches,cloudy eyes...nothing. The only thing am I...

Thanks Everyone.. Well... The plot thickens.. Nitrate: 0.2 Nitrite : 0 PH (done with meter and test kit) 8.2 NH4 : 0 ALK: 3.88 meq/l DKH: 10.88 Everything seems in line with my normal test readings. My alk and dkh are both a bit higher than normal. Up from 3.5 / 9.92. I found another...

Nothing new... I moved a Tunze about 1"down and over a little bit... That is the only change I made... I did a water change over a week ago... I dont run carbon for the first week after I do a water change...can't see that making any difference. Checked my ACjr and it showed a steady temp...

It had to be better than mine! Woke up this morning..3 fish dead.. 2 Chromis and 1 Lyretail Anthia.. Found them stuck to my skimmer inlet... Ok..That's weird...but its strong suction, I've had a chromis or 2 take the ride to the sump and get stuck there before... Come home from work...

Rich! Respect your elders! HAPPY BIRTHDAY (AGAIN) BILL!!

Congratulations to the new officers!We're glad to have you on board! The club has made great strides this past year and our membership has grown tremendously! I can't wait to see what the new year brings!

It comes with the serial cable (as long as you get that version of ACjr) if you need a longer cable I think you have to make it... I'm pretty sure you can't hook up with Cat5 with the jr. atleast.

Is that second picture true to it's natural color? If so... WoW!!

I haven't heard of anyone doing that recently.... I think your best bet is to put the rock in a seperate tank or rubbermaid container and cure it in there for a few weeks.

I think they recommend 900-1200 gph with the MR1. I would stay away from the Mag pumps for this and get a decent pressure rated pump. (Your beckett will work much better with a pressure pump) MRC says you can use a Mag 12, but I would really worry about the performance of it. You can use flex...

Daniel Did you do the mod on the collection container or did it come like that? Steve you did a mod for that as well right? When the power goes out and the skimmer kicks back on it always shuts off the overflow collector because of the initial rush of air through the skimmer. If you come to...

The Dart pump is only about 1.5/2.0 amps I think. I was going to get the HD, just forgot to type it in!
