  1. Try disconnecting and reconnect in the proper order.
  2. I think the new controller comes out in Q1.
  3. A Coralvue rep indicated that the new controller may be Apex friendly. I am sure the community will devise a mechanism to ensure it works with Apex.
  4. If you are familiar with RR Wolverine, it looks identical.
  5. A wise man once said, "Dont believe the hype". Those in hobby for a couple years fully understand the capabilities of power heads of all types. "Virtually no dead spots" means there will be some dead spots, minimize the drag of live rock and corals to improve tank flow. I intend on purchasing two of the smaller 35w units and sync them with the new Apex ready controller. For some, maintenance may become a problem as the pumps have small parts that require periodic cleaning. Is it real or Memorex?
  6. No supplemental lighting when running 6500k, 10k or 20k. Rocky Mountain Wolverine.
  7. 2 year anniversary.
  8. As I understand the process, the pump will run in reverse, technically creating a reverse flow; however, flow is minimal and weak compared to forward flow rates. IMHO, one Gyre does not replace two, <insert your favorite powerhead here>; therefore, two Gyres are needed to effectively stir the pot. On the other hand, I would consider vertically mounting one Gyre on the back glass and continue to run my Tunzes.
  9. Recently moved the following corals into the stable: No photos as the corals are under Iwasaki (6500k) bulbs. Coolers champagne FF Red Stag Gadgets Exquisita Blue Flame Fire Cracker JF Fox Flame Steel Blue Stag JF Terra Nova PC Rainbow Rouge Mille Vivid Rainbow Delight WWC Yellow Tips Dragon Scale Purple Dragon CR Flame On CR Igniter CR Sunrise RM Wolverine RM Pink Passion
  10. Installed the 400w MH on September 1. Also, got about 20 frags from several sources across the country.
  11. I don't doubt it moves water, 5,000 gph is significant. Interested in hearing real world implementation. I may get one to play around.
  12. Not my system, but someone who consults with me quite often.
  13. Anyone received and installed the Maxspect Gyre pump? Share your initial comments and videos.
  14. Could you post an approximate size of the fish?
  15. http://youtu.be/ecQmDiZFzQ8
  16. 1/2 inch frag with arrive live policy.
  17. The wall of rock lacks the "elements", like negative space, that provide a striking aquascape. Every method has its strengths and weaknesses. For example, the minimalist method, which contrasts the wall of rock, allows the hobbyist to be creative with negative space, but severely limits the number of corals in the system.
  18. The Maleficent is a mortgage payment. $2,000
  19. I do not see the Maleficent or the Diablo on your frag rack.
  20. That is the wall of rock method, used for maximum coral coverage.
  21. I have some i can sell you. $200 per oz. Just kidding. I remember that product was extremely difficult to find. Have you tried Cherry Corals?
  22. Appreciate the quick reply. Looking for XL, 7 - 9 inches.
