Folks, if you've recently upgraded or renewed your annual club membership but it's still not active, please reach out to the BOD or a moderator. The PayPal system has a slight bug which it doesn't allow it to activate the account on it's own.
I'd go with manual removal, turn the lights off for a couple of weeks since you have no corals and then slowly ramp them up again. You can always regrow coralline and it is much more resilient than people give it credit for.
My wife's condition for letting me set up the euphyllia tank was if I could get it in the basement with no help. Guess what I did while she was at work yesterday?
Decided on a scape and cemented it together this morning. I'll be throwing rubble from my display in the sump and getting it running...
Completely agree, I’m glad that I finally have reached some level of system maturity where I’m comfortable adding more SPS again. If anyone is selling good sized frag/mini colony packs I’m in the market!
I’m getting back into breeding the shrimp slowly, I have some survivors from when I moved...
After nearly 3 months of patiently waiting and monitoring the system, the surviving corals are starting to encrust and/or show axial growth as well as color up from bleached or brown to showing their true colors again. I have developed a hair algae problem in the frag runner, refugium and under...
Moved my sump today, couldn’t access the whole container for maintenance how I set it up initially. Changed out my 2x Vectra L2 returns for a VarioS 10. Haven’t bracketed the pipes down yet but it’s not leaking and look! I made room for a biocube
I bought a waterbox infinia frag 125.4 and loved the quality of the entire set up. My only complaint with waterbox is that the stand doesn't ever seem to have room for any extra equipment and the Waterbox Infinia Reef 230.6 seems to have the same problem based on the website
Looking good Kevin, sorry again about the Hydros.
Have you thought of a small foxface for the bubble algae? my one spot got rid of every bit of it that was within reach.
I have flatworms all over my refugium but they have never made it or survived in my display. I have a mccosker wrasse and a...
I posted a thread with a bunch for sale that looks like you may be interested in, I have vectra l2 return pumps, a new alkatronic and other misc equipment that might fit your bill. I think I have an old RODI system somewhere too
I recently set up a freshwater tank shelf system for breeding shrimp—mainly Neocaridina for now, but I’m also considering dabbling with some Apistogramma cichlids.
On the reef side, I’ve decided that if my Waterbox Infinia Frag 125.4 doesn’t sell by mid-August… I’m keeping it. And honestly...
Located in New Egypt, cash only but I may entertain SPS and select softie trades.
-KM-120 Magmetic IceCap Kalk Mixing Reactor (used for 2 weeks) $200
-New with box, never used Alkatronic (threw away reagent as it had expired) $800
-Sicce Synctra ADV 5.5 no fittings $125
-Eshopps X120 AXIUM...
Took the time to rescape the rockwork and was able to find some nubs of SPS that survived the crash from colonies I thought I completely lost. I attached them to tiles and threw them in the frag system. I also hooked up an ION Director to get a better idea of what's going on between my weekly...
Thanks! Slowly but surely stabilizing everything again and bringing my levels back to optimal levels. Waiting on the ICP test before I start adding any corals again.
