    Dude! You can use this as a crib! You just have to figure out the lighting requirements for a newborn.

    12 foot long shallow reef build

    +1 on the Milwaukee refractometer. Best purchase I made for my tank when I started mixing my own water. Still use it numerous times a week.

    Ecotech Vortech Controller Malfunction

    Paul, I have, I believe, a couple of power cords and 2 of these original controllers in good condition. Held onto them thinking someone in the club may eventually have them, want them, or need them. I'm like a Jersey Nostradamus. You're welcome to them.

    Hair algae help please...

    Your going to hit that algae cycle early on. I restarted same time and I've got a bit of brown on the sand and a few bits of hair/bryopsis starting now. From previous experience with this nano, I'm planning to do a 2g water change weekly (possibly bi-weekly) and keep up with dosing Special...

    Invert group buy (shore area)

    Was going to head to ACC tomorrow in search of a yellow zoa and some narc snails. Was interested in doing a RC order as they do dwarf ceriths and bumblebees, which would work out well in a 10g. Tigs, do appreciate the offer. If you've got some small ones that will do well in a 10g, would be...

    Invert group buy (shore area)

    Hey all. Need to pick up a few snails for my 10g build but I only need a score or so. Wondering if anyone is interested in a group buy from Reef Cleaners. I can head the order and get the packages, just need assurance that anyone interested can pick up their order somewhere in Brick or Point...

    IM10 start up....

    Coincidentally just restarted my IM 10 last week. +1 on the media basket. I'm running a 3 tier IM basket, floss up top, a small amount of carbon in middle, and small amount of phosban in bottom (ready for chempure if needed). I'm using a Ghost skimmer from a previous tank which is overkill. A...

    AI HYDRA settings

    I dont know if this will help or not. I was running 2 hydra 26s over my 90 and ran a par meter with the lights on various settings. Unsure how this would transcribe over to the 52s, but at least its some info...
