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.
Jun, I believe you really need to start thinking about dosing regularly. You say that you alternately dose kalk and ESV. kalk isn't used to increase levels but to maintain, however if your corals are using up more than the kalk your dosing, it'll be a loosing battle. there is always a point...
yeah, i understand that overdosing ozone can be hazardous to ones health but with every horror story i have read, it seems like the individual did not correctly utilize ozone correctly. usually using non-ozone safe tubing, connectors, etc.. but again, i wanted to see if anyone else currently or...
well i assume that ozone will definitely help on the GFO cost. carbon is a must have when running ozone, but carbon is cheap enough that i dont mind. I will definitely be monitoring ORP with my Apex controller and will be controlling the generator that i plan on purchasing.
Hey Mike, what was your set up like? I am thinking about running ozone only about 2-3 hours a day just to clean things up in the water. I also do plan on keeping a bunch of SPS as I am keeping a mixed reef but definitely mostly sps. my tank is only 80 gallons + 40 gallon sump, im looking at...
I have and 80 gallon rimless as a display and a regular 80 gallon as a frag tank. love the dimensions of these tanks and are well built. Empire is correct about the bulkheads. make sure to pick up and extra set before leaving the LFS.
I would like to implement it to help with water quality and possiblly reduce the chances of introducing anything that could harm my fish or any other livestock I would get.
I am currently using coral snow, carbon and gfo. my only gripe with this however is the cost of upkeep. one initial...
which levels seems off?! red sea test are kinda weird. if your testing calc and the plunger on the syringe reads .4 ml you really dosed .6 ml of the test regeant. so look for that value on the cards.
by precautionary, I mean so that people won't be exposed to any ozone while being in the home. I figure I keep it running for 3 hours during the 8 hour work day. I just read some people getting sick because of ozone exposure. is this something I should even worry about?
I am considering getting wrasses but I am afraid they would just jump out of the tank. I really do not want to put a screen net on the tank as I feel it kills the rimless look. but I might just have to risk it. lol
I know the possibilities are endless haha that's why I need your help! lol
Hey guys! need some stocking tips for the 80!
current livestock:
Powder Brown Tang
Pair of Divinci Clowns
Skunk Cleaner Shrimp
Pair of Harlequin Shrimps
First things first, do not call the tang police on me!! haha I understand that the powder brown will out grow the 80 and this has been...
Hey guys,
I'm thinking about implementing ozone to my current system. I plan on getting an enlay ozone generator (rated for a maximum output of 200mg/hr, ozone reactor), and a media reactor for the carbon. I will be controlling and monitoring the ORP through my Apex. I plan on just running...
I take a white disposable plate (not the paper kind) and place it in the tank. I then focus my camera onto that plate and adjust my camera accordingly.
