    Apex vs. Hydros

    I have both and like them equally. The apex has an advantage because of the Trident. I like using different tech, so I run them on separate systems. The power brick on the hydros is flakey unless you run a mesh wifi network.

    What to do?

    That would lower nitrates.

    What to do?

    Anyway you can increase your nitrates? You're close to zero for both, you want to detect some trace of nitrates. But ya like everyone stated, a good cuc would do a good job at fighting it. If algae already there, manual removal like you're doing.

    Wtb frag/overgrow tank

    Looking for a lagoon style tank and stand (if possible). I have a few aio tanks I thought about drilling, etc but not interested in that. 25g - 50g. Thanks!

    Thoughts on water changes?

    Every 3-4 months I do a water change. It's really just based off where my phosphate levels are. I like to keep them .1-.18, that just seems to be the sweet spot for my tank. Gfo keeps the levels stable, but after 3 months I like to do a sort of reset.

    Does anyone have any berghia nudibranch?

    As the title says, does anyone have any berghia nudibranch's near the woodbridge area? Happy to pay, but buying them online is a bit much with shipping. I probably only need around 4 as i only have a dozen or so aiptasia in a 100g tank in areas i cant reach. Thanks a lot! Artie

    What does everyone do for a living?

    I'm a CIO for a company in manhattan. The tech in me has helped immensely in the reefing world lol.

    Have these creatures clinging to my front glass…

    Cant really tell, but could be a breed of pods, but they're usually out at night - not sure.

    Adding sand into reef advice needed

    You're good, just do a little at a time, mainly just to keep the dust down.

    Can't get rid of brown sand

    It's all kind of patience, but it could be a silicate issue, not necessarily PO4. What GFO are you running? I run Rowaphos and change it out every 30 days keeping a steady 0.05 with NO3 averaging 9.5 (hanna). The thing about Rowaphos is that it's also great for removing silicates. So if your RO...

    Hanna mag checker

    Ya... bought a new Hanna kit (updated), definitely tests high. I tested yesterday at 1467 versus the trident at 1326... Prior weeks it's similar as well, usually a difference by 100ppm. I go by my trident, pretty flawless, but interesting to say the least.
