    ? About pinpoint ph monitor

    New probe most likely. They must remain wet. It will be obvious if after calibrating it drifts all over the place. Mike, I've got calibration fluid if you need it

    So what am I doing wrong?

    There definitely was no release of silicates! Although silicone caulk contains the element silicon, for it to be released would be a total destruction of the chemical structure of the caulk…..not going to happen unless you’re burning it. However, part of the curing process is the release...

    Help with Skimmer....please

    I apologize for repeated posts, but I keep on seeing more. I’m thinking while typing…duel injectors with a pump putting out ca 2000 gph…with the plumbing being a “manifold” with multiple tee-offs…and with too many elbows. I’m wondering how much flow is actually getting to the injectors...

    Help with Skimmer....please

    Your picture link above doesn’t work, so I went to RC and looked at the pictures there. Now I’m no expert, but I don’t like your unions on the bottom of the injectors. Again, don’t know from Adam, but I just don’t like adding inches to the injectors. But going back to my first post, I’d...

    Mini maxi in a sps tank?

    I have two that I just recently received (from my adult son) this past December. As far as I know these are full-grown at maybe a touch over 2 inch diameter. I can tell you that mine have not walked from their original locations they had when I got the rock. This surprised me with one that...

    Paul’s petit réservoir d'eau salée

    HAIR ALGAE Kevin, the Mexican Turbo has mowed down all the hair algae and, with the tank bare bottom, I’ve discovered what snail poo looks like…..little light brown pellets. NEW LIGHT That new light is phenomenal. What an improvement in quality over earlier Chinese fixtures….aluminum...
