Everything I have seen in the few years I have done this leads me to believe the largest problem for most reefers is nutrient in, vs nutrient out. Obviously coral need some nutrients beyond what lights can supply, but aren't we creating our own problems by dumping fish food in coral tanks...
Hi guys,
I told the wife that if come up with a good way to avoid leaving the RO running, and flooding the laundry room (for the umpteenth time) looking for a solution that's comparable in capacity to a 5 gallon jug, which is what I'm using now. What are your thoughts?
Starting up a 40B this weekend and am seriously considering this triton method. Anyone have any experiences they can share? Basically other than the chemicals, and maybe a better return pump, it looks like I just need the chemicals.
List of equipment:
40B
E-shopps R-200 sump
Skimmer
2 BRS...
Curious why people spend 10x as much $$$for a premade sump, instead of making their own? One benefit seems to be they are quieter, but I feel like I was able to make mine (acceptably) quiet. Are there other reasons I'm missing?
Basically I'm in the frenzied phase of starting a new tank...
Maybe I'm being overly cautious, but my homeowners insurer probably would like me to be.
3 tanks side by side in my office, which is at the front wall of my house. Not on slab, I have a basement.

What do you guys recommend that's on the afforable side? This will be a fowlr tank, possibly with some xenia for movement. Shimmering lights would be nice.
Hi guys,
Looking to start up a 40 breeder as a fowlr. What do you recommend for a stand? I will have a fuge below, probably a 20G.
Hope everyone is heaving a great day!
Do you feed zoas? Do you dose for zoas? Do you recommend a reef controller for zoas?
I had been neglecting my tank for a while and now I am slowly nursing it back to health. I will do another water change tonight and see where my numbers are. In the meantime:
I've decided to focus on zoas and...

Hello,
I'm moving on tuesday and before I put the tank in place I'd like to put something down to protect the nice hardwood floor. Any suggestions?

Picked up a 40G breeder today. Oddly enough, I can't find wooden stands for sale? It seems like such a popular tank, this surprises me.
Any advice?
i prefer not to build one myself (I'm sure my homeowners insurance would agree).
Hello,
I renewed my membership a few days ago but Is till can't see the for sale section. Not sure how long it takes, but I am in semi-urgent need to buy a new tank before my tank stand collapses, any help would be appreciated :)
My 30G cube stand is deteriorating. So, in order of preference, I would like to buy:
A blonde wood stand like this
Or I'd consider either a tank and stand of the same thing in cherry
Also open to a 40G Breeder tank and stand.
Thank you,
Bryan Duggan
What would you suggest my turnover rate should be in a 30G cube with a 10G sump? My return pump is getting noisy, and it was cheap 2 years ago ($40).
I'm also of the opinion that more flow "may" benefit the tank, hopefully reduce cyano?
Thoughts?
I've read that calk can be used to cull back fast growing palys, either with a paste, or by injecting them.
Where does one get a syringe to do this? or when smothering, how do you mix/apply it? I wanted to start adding calk to my top ff water anyway and figured I'd use it to thin the play...
My wifey got me this for our one year anniversary. A cute little dinosaur filled with fluorescent dinoflagellates!
We were worried we'd waited too long to open them but last night I picked it up and it started glowing wildly! Really fun little surprise :)...
I have some UltraLife in my shopping cart but hadn't payed for it yet (did you know if you wait a few days they'll usually send you a $5 promo code?).
Woke up this morning and 12 hours later my cyano has mostly cleared up on its own!
I was blaming the outbreak on my DI resin being spent...
