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.
Just trying to clean up a little. Sadly the Tropic Marin is 2x+ of Reef Crystals. But with my new dosing regiment, maybe I won't have to do as many as large water changes. Dosing just 7ml a day manually to maintain an Alk of 8.8 dKh. Feels good to actually test and have an idea what the numbers...
Hello All,
I picked up a colony of Indo Gold Torches. He would only sell off the dozen or so heads in one shot. So I am looking to break it up slightly and sell either (3 heads for $500 or 4 heads for $600).
Let me know if interested. Will work on better pics but best I have at the moment...
Asking $100.00 for everything pictured and assuming the pm2 module does not work. Controller was up and running with temp probe and display until I sold off the energy bar.

Hello All,
Switched away from reef Crystals Salt but I still have 6 sealed buckets.
I had an auto renew order and before I cancelled had more delivered.
I will sell for $35 per bucket.
Also willing to trade for Euphyllia, other cool corals, or towards an auto top off.
Let me know.

I have found that the MOST useful tools when breaking down tanks you are looking to reset back up are containers and bins.
I personally love the 5 gallon water jugs and Rubbermaid bins.
I sent him things to consider before moving the tank.
Order some replacement bulkheads (incase the originals...
Paulie069 Tank Movers! bwahahaha
Just kidding.
How far of a move are we talking?
NJ to NJ? Out of state? The more info the better.
Is this a tank you are buying and looking to reset up quickly?
I did the same thing from Oakland NJ to Dumont NJ, less than an hour drive, but was able to quickly...
Sounds like you are getting over a hump. Congrats.
But similar to my recent activities...I changed so many things at one shot. Not 100% sure what worked the best to get me where I am now.
What type of suction cups have people successfully used?
I got the orange plastic ones, and the handle literally snapped off.
I tried. You get what you pay for.
But are there ADT 8in versions usable? Or should you get the Woods Power Grips?
Just wondering people's experience.
I had 2 TV Stands on Wheels.
Was awesome height for a Red Sea 250 Max.
Pulled 2 supports from the middle tier and 2 extra wheels from the one unit before I sold it and used that to reinforce the one I used for the Tank Stand.
I was able to lower the water level and roll the entire tank on my...
I just put my skimmer back online after a few months out thinking I would try a dirtier tank. That was before I realized my ALK was through the roof.
So I did have lots of changes in the past 3 weeks. Didnt kill anything. BUT Have a spot or 2 of red slime build up that I just cant shake...
I REALLY think this 8.8-9.0 ALK range should be doable since switching away from Reef Crystals which I tested my fresh mix at 13.2 last month. 13.2!
How was I gonna maintain a 8.5-9.0 ALK when my water changes would raise my ALK to levels my tank was not prepared to handle.
I think my short...
pH seems to be my next parameter to focus on. Testing with my API leaves alot of room for variation. Red Sea test is a bit more easiliy to read.
What are you using to test pH? And As it varies from day to night with lighting, etc. When do you test?
