  1. I recommend the following products for non Zeo system. 1. Coral Snow 2. ZZ 3. Biomate 4. Coral Vitalizer (only for systems running nutrient poor)
  2. LOL. I like the WP40 combo pack.
  3. Dual Controller
  4. Not at all. As long as whites are not above 6500k, your fine. From the omniverse.
  5. B1 = 480 nm, B2 = 450nm, B3 = 440nm, V = 420nm, W2 = 4500k, W3 = 7500, and UV = 400nm
  6. Construction in progress.
  7. Note: The W4 (8000K) were changed to W2 (4500K).
  8. Prefer neither, but if I had to choose it would be bare bottom.
  9. Curious, is the enclosure above and below the tank wood or drywall?
  10. Those polyps are actually six feet wide. lol
  11. Same food but cut the amount by 50% to help manage the nutrients. If you notice fish losing weight, increase food a little. Cupramine will lower their appetite a bit as well. Keep in mind the sponge is carrying Ich as well.
  12. What did you use for live bio filtration? Monitor ammonia daily and prepare to do water changes to keep ammonia in check. Also, get one those ammonia alert float thingy (technical term).
  13. Nothing planned. Reef Specialty, Premium Aquatics, and others carry the ANC. If you look close you can see a black mark that indicates the one liter mark. The cup holds just over two liters. The picture shows two days worth of skimmate.
  14. The skimmer holds approximately six gallons of water.
  15. Additional height is always good, how much performance increase, dont know.
  16. ... and never use tools to tighten. Hand tighten only.
  17. February 2014 Update Last month I replaced my Bubble Master 200 skimmer with a SRO 5000 external. The 5000 is equipped with a neck extension to increase dwell and contact time. Also, the automated neck cleaner (ANC) runs for 15 seconds every six hours. Prior to implementing the ANC, I was cleaning the neck every two days, not fun. Comparison photo Operational.
  18. Use normal curing methods and manage the leaching phosphates. Add to main display when phosphates are below.08 ppm.
  19. Do you want to eradicate or coexist? Eradicate = fallow tank Coexist = do nothing
  20. The push was to get it (Fusion) in the cloud and broaden availability and connectivity. Are you in the beta?
  21. Best if you start a new thread so you dont HJ this one. What questions do you have regarding the reactor?
  22. ORP and conductivity is not worth it, especially conductivity. If you need a probe to constantly measure salinity, you have bigger problems. Rhetorically speaking of course.
  23. Marco Mortar.
  24. As I stated above, a standalone system can be done. However, it will be more challenging to maintain high water quality. Weekly water changes of 25% may work and use a large HOB filter (Aquaclear) for biological.
  25. If you are dry scaping, I recommend using Marco mortar. It is awesome.
