Folks, if you've recently upgraded or renewed your annual club membership but it's still not active, please reach out to the BOD or a moderator. The PayPal system has a slight bug which it doesn't allow it to activate the account on it's own.
So, what you get for the holidays?
I have a hard time deciding the Nepture Apex and ATI T5 fixtures. I eventually decided on the ATI. Now I have no excuse if my SPS are not growing well :)
My tank water is 33 ppm (I just realized that I might have measured the salinity wrong). So how to I raise it to 35 ppm? Can I just dissolve some salt and add to the sump everyday?
So it looks simple but I need a lesson on this. Mine does not come with a manual (another way of saying even an idiot can use it).
The calibration fluid says 35 ppm at 77 degrees. It's kept at 65 degrees.
My room temperature in the basement is 65 degrees.
The tank temperature is 78...
I have used mine for about 3 months and happy with the performance. I have two on a 75g, both in wave mode. Here's a video of the flow.

You can use a 30 gallon tank for sump if you don't want a new stand.
I assume you already drilled your tank or you're using an overflow box? If it's the later yeah I will definitely upgrade because you have to buy a new tank to drill anyway.
Thanks for the suggestions on the spa timer but it just seems too much work for me :)
I am going back to the digital timer idea. I feed the tank just before going to bed or in the early morning before going to work, when the PE is the best. I have a digital timer that allow me to set 7 on/off...
Looking for the above or something cheap. Only function I need now if the ability to turn off return pump after feeding then turn it back on 30 mins later.

I bought a piece of favia and put it on the sandbed and partially shadowed. It's doing great. Where do you mount your favia? What if I leave it on the sandbed will it form a skeleton on the sandbed?
I have the same question for Acans too. They do great on the sandbed.
My Kole tang goes to bathroom always at the same spot. The same corner of the tank. It took me a while to realize that. And I don't think I have seem fish do that. Unfortunately his bathroom is on the opposite end of the overflow so the poop got blown all over the tank.
Does your do that?
Tom - my latest bag of IO from Trops has 1600 Mg, freshly mixed. My tank has 1540 Mg. I am interested if you bought it from Trops. I am questioning my Red Sea test kit but maybe it is indeed 1600.
I seriously want to bring down Mg in my tank and I attribute that as the reason for the lack of...
Prone to leak yes. But water pressure is the same regardless how thin the line is. I use the splitter connecting to the water supply line under the sink.
