  1. Would it be possible to pick up tomorrow around 1:30?
  2. This is a wild guess but maybe changing the flow pattern could redirect growth?
  3. Have you tried your local cabinet/woodworking shop?
  4. A few years ago I had a huge Turbo (golf ball sized) in a Biocube 14. For some reason the temp got up to about 84 or 85 and he just cut loose. The water looked like someone dumped a half a bottle of purple up in there. I did a partial water change to try to clear it up and it just kept coming (no pun intended). He finally stopped and everything cleared up eventually, no damage done.
  5. Lol, can't really say no to that...
  6. Why not just use the Petco gift card to set up a decent QT system.
  7. Thanks for this! I have an aggressive Coral Beauty and will be employing this tactic as soon as a find a small mirror.
  8. Excellent as always. Thanks to all the donors and volunteers!
  9. I've read that the African blue zoas thrive in cooler temps. I'll bet that's it.
  10. You looked like a pro! You will be the new TV go to fish guy.
  11. It's all pretty much the same stuff. The difference is the container and the marketing department.
  12. I highly doubt it would kill many if any of them, I think they'd just come off with the film.
  13. I'm dealing with that now. I have to be really careful not to bleach. I switched from a 150W MH to an IT2040 and I'm running both channels at 20% or lower and some of the corals are still kind of light shocked.
  14. Good to know. Is it safe to assume that once the alk is up that the available calcium will be more easily consumed and both should be dropping to some extent over time?
  15. I read that 1.5 dkh per day was about the max which seems a little drastic when it's so easy to just bump it up slowly.
  16. Definitely! Not to mention the fact that all I had to do was go to the pantry a grab a box...
  17. A1/2 teaspoon of baking soda and glass of RODI later and I'm up to 8 dkh. I'll do it again tomorrow to go to 9 and I'm good to go. Thanks for the help. I guess I'll just keep an eye on it and go from there.
  18. What's a good number to shoot for considering my other stats? I'm thinking 9 dkh.
  19. Any suggestions on the best (easiest, most stable) way to raise alk only or would I be better off leaving it alone?
