Jason Fox Leptoseris has a very nice orange color. Many Zoas will give you nice colors of all kinds. Also Superman Monti, or Jason Fox Violet Orange will give you a very nice pink color.

I am not exactly sure what chemi pure blue is. It seems to be an enhanced version of activated carbon. It should not remove nutrient significantly so you can leave it in. I do not run activated carbon on a regular basis. Only occasionally to remove the yellow color from the water (like once...

You're running too many things in your tank so my first suggestion is to remove purigen, phosguard and chemipire. Actually none of them remove nitrate. Leave the tank alone for a few days then we can think about nutrient export.

If you have calibrated then your tank water is not 35ppt. It is close to 1.021 SG. Why bring your hydrometer into this? And how do you know the hydrometer is accurate?

Refractometers are low tech equipment and it's pretty hard to have a bad one. Make sure it's calibrated to 1.0264 and try to match that with your tank water. If you don't have calibration fluid just get a bottle of salt water from a fellow hobbyists. To increase salinity, add some salt water and...

Yep it's an old skimz sm201. Pretty consistent and don't need much maintenance.

It looks like this after 3 days

It might work. Let me know when you want to stop by.

I have acrylics if you can cut them yourself. I even have the table saw blade for acrylic but my table saw is junk.

PayPal sent. Thanks!

I am in Holmdel off GSP 116 wherever works for you is fine. If you go directly to Paul's I am in your route.

@Rread16 if you don't mind I like to intercept you Saturday morning. I want the BRS chemicals.

Not sure if it's the iodine dosing the rainbow nem never looked better.

If you're trying to strip your water of PO4 thus stopping the growth of cyano, your corals will suffer first. So it's not a good strategy. A proven strategy is to keep the nutrient levels, NO3 and PO4 at around the redfield ratio, about 1ppm and 0.03ppm. As for your cyano outbreak, use chemi...

I think one prerequisite for keep these type of creatures is the ability to culture photo, pods and mysid shrimps. Mysid shrimp is like 20 cents each you know how small it is...

Yeah my potassium number is pretty solid :) @saltkreep88 I too was hoping something was wrong with the level so I could fix it. My red is actually pretty good right now. But green is not dark enough but then again I have nothing to compare to. The green slimer is yellowish so is the paletta...

410ppm. So I finally bought a test kit and the number is boring :)

LMK if you have any. Thanks.

Congrats on the big upgrade. Looking forward to seeing it in action. Rough estimates it's about 500g. I will generally shoot for 3-5 times turn over which means 1500-2500gph for your tank. An 1.5" full siphon should handle it easily. As for overflow boxes current trend is to have a very slim...

I try not to run an ULNS system so can't really answer your question. I do dose acro power very occasionally. It helps with PE a little.
