    Hydros just killed apex with maven

    If I didn't already have so much invested in the Neptune equipment, I would definitely go with the Hydros line. The one qualm i have with the trident is that if the cuvette overflows it fries the board (ask me how i know). The website says the Maven has a waterproof separation between the...

    Thoughts on flow

    I’m getting the 200 as well. I tried bare bottom and ended up putting sand in the tank so I’m going sand again. I’m considering 2 more MP40’s instead of the gyres.

    Thanks I’ll look into the ai gyre. I heard the new cloud controller is much easier

I currently have 2xMP40’s on my 6’ 120 gallon and a jebao slw-30 and I’m leaning towards ditching the jebao and adding 2x maxpect gyre XF350’s to go with the MP40’s. Does anyone have...

    Will a Refugium Fit ?

    I don't foresee the chaeto clogging it but the fuge light may cause some nuisance algae on the reefmat. Perhaps moving it closer to the wall and somehow blocking the light from directly hitting the reefmat might help.

    Anyone not running filter socks?

    I have a roller mat but to be honest the roll ran out and I haven't changed it because my nutrients keep bottoming out.

    Hair Algae Escapades

    I used reef flux last year when I was battling GHA for months and couldn’t beat it with manual removal and large water changes. I combined reef flux with adding a ATS to the system and I was algae free within a few weeks. I feel your pain but don’t give up. Good luck!

    Well, here's water storage from FB...

    We get rid of them by the truckload at work. Most of them have raw chemicals that may be hard to clean but we have many with just solvents that were used. I’ve always thought of bringing one home but didn’t really have the need. Maybe if I do the 200 gallon upgrade I can bring one home to make a...

    Journey of the 200 Gallon!

    Congrats and good luck with the build. I do agree that the top braces need to be on edge just like the ones on the bottom are.

    Hobby Drives me Crazy

    Yes my sailfin tang. He bullied 2 yellow tangs to death last year and this year I tried an orange shoulder tang and PBT a few months ago and he bullied them as well. Any other fish I add is fine just not tangs.

    Is any one rehoming a Copper band?

    I’ve had tremendous success with peppermint shrimp if you want to try an easier route.

    I’m at a loss 0.17 Po4

    My phosphates were .12 at the highest but I know the algae was sucking much of it also. My acan closed up a little and I lost one sps but other than that everything seemed not bothered.
