    Help please!!

    bring your water to someone who has a photometer to check for phosphates

    Why do I need to keep cleaning my glass?

    Just consider it a part of reefing, and invest in a magfloat. Makes it much easier. BTW -If your not testing your phosphates with a photometer then your results are most likely inaccurate

    Thinking about changing my lighting, questions.

    If you up your par you'll sacrifice some growth. Can you raise the light higher? How far is it off the water now? I have plenty of acros and a big anemone about 10" from my 250 10k and their fine. I know people who have stuff about 10-12 inches away from 400w mh and its fine. What are you trying...

    Genos or Pats?

    It is all hype! You can get the same brand meat and cheese anywhere in tri-state area. It's not like that brand is from philly and can't leave there. Good chance the meats imported from somewhere anyway, all hype

    Fish Suggestion

    Only certain ones. Long nose are usually a good bet, plus they're good in a reef. Always add the shrimp first and the fish you think might eat it later. Just seem to have better luck this way. I think when fish see you dump in the shrimp it's kinda like feeding time

    Fish Suggestion

    I'd stay away from the angels. I've had too many reef safe ones still pick at stuff over the years. Try a school 3-4 chromis or 2-3 fire fish. Maybe a hawk fish?

    Anyone know where theres a deal on one? Salty supply for 379 and free shipping is the best i can find. Does premium aqua give the club 15% off them or it doesn't apply to them?

    Re-Mixing Salt Mixes?

    Certain elements do settle to the bottom or rise to the top. Take the bag out and mix it around on the floor. Then pour it into the bucket and mix it a little more. Saran wrap or use a piece of the bag to cover the bucket then put the lid back on. I seen plenty of tests done mixing and not...

    Derasa clam dies in less than a day?

    What watts were the lights before and after, and how far is it from the lights? Clams do go fast when they go though, atleast the ones that didnt make it for me did
