I just got a Phsoban Reactor. I want to also put carbon in it. Is it best to mix carbon and phosban or put one in and then the other?

Nice tank. I too like the rock work. In fact I will be upgrading soon and that is a similar look to what I will be aiming for.

I will do lights out method. I have done several water changes in the last week. Will see what happens.

I pm him several days ago he is supposed to be getting me a price.

Changed all bulbs in display tank October 27. I have not changed fuge bulbs in a long while, maybe about a year. In my fuge I have a ton of chaeto and 8 mangrove plants. Could the mangrove roots be stirring up my deep sand bed in the fuge and causing this?

I have two Tunze 6025 pointing at the sand, one in each upper corner pointing down at the opposite lower corner. Have a sand sifting star and about 30 Nassarius snails. for the sand. I thought this would be enough. Thought that with Cyano I would have high nitrates and or phosphates. I am baffled

I am having some issues with my tank. Brownish red stuff is showing up on sand. Greyish stuff showing up on live rock. The greyish stuf can be mostly blown off by a baster but some will stay. Nitrate 0 (just tested). Phosphates at 0.025ppm. Flow is 3x Tunze 6025, and return pump magdrive 9.5 going to a squid. Any ideas as to what the redish brown and greyish stuff is? What is causing it? How to get rid of it? http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i305/arb...ey/DSCN1339.jpg http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i305/arb...ey/DSCN1340.jpg http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i305/arb...ey/DSCN1341.jpg

Seems like a good idea, but I am not sure about cutting glass.

If I had to buy a new reef ready 110 gallon tank, who would have the best price? Also looking for stand in oak or cherry color.

This is the system I have. http://jimstrains.com/?mainURL=/store/item...PD_6_stage.html I believe the post carbon filter is more for drinking.

Anyone have a link to a diagram that has propper 6 Stage RO/DI installation.

This is how I have it hooked up. http://www.waterforliving.com/Install_Diagram.gif I have seen diagrams were it goes through the membrane first. I have also seen diagrams where it goes through the first two canisters and then carbon last. Not sure which way is correct.

At the source the readings are 161 ppm. The problem I am having is I am not sure if RO/DI is hooked up properly.

RO/DI

I am new to TDS meters. I know the goal is to have a 0.0 reading. I tested and got 020 ppm. I don't know how bad that is.

Welcome to WAMAS and Northern Virginia.

Never seen one before. Nice find.

Nice looking tank.

Nice tank.

That was actually another question I had. Do most people bring frags?

I have not received my membership card, will it be needed to attend the meeting.

What damage will they cause?

This seems to be getting ugly.
