2012 was a great year for us but it’s time to start 2013 off with a bang. So starting Jan. 3rd 2013 and running until Feb. 3rd 2013 We’re going to have a graphic design contest to design the new look of Ultimate Corals. We’re looking for someone to create an original logo and someone to create...
I got in a ton of really nice zoa frags last week. Fire and ice, goblins fire, brown eye girl, plum crazy, etc.. along with some real nice chalice frags that are all healed up and ready to go including strawberry blush and bright lime rim.
First thing...get rid of that hagen test kit. Go pick up a salifert. .3 or .6 is a huge difference when it comes to ammonia. I'm not 100% convinced your issue is the silicone. If it was then everything would be dead by now. Now ecambero's i definitely think was the silicone as everything was...
Some people have no problems what so ever using 2 others have their whole tank wiped out in a matter of hours. This would lead me to believe there are manufacturing inconsistency or there is an issue with shelf life.
