I would love to see everyone's frag pics. Please post themd

Right you are. Checking my systems and recharging my batteries in on the agenda for me.

Yeah, thats whoi was thinking about. thank you Milton

So after weeks of planning and thinking, I have decided to do a complete reset of the tank. I pulled rocks, sand and water. I washed out most of the rocks and sand but i left the sump untouched. I put the fish and the one rock of coral that survived (sunkist bounce) in a tub while the work was being done. Last week I added back rocks and water and am not ready to start over again. More to come.

Can someone tell me the name of the name of the guy/gal selling pods and phyto who lives close to Baltimore? I need to get some to restart my tank many thanks

So I did an ICP test to check my chemistry. Unfortunately, i do not see anything that would suggest a major problem that could explain the crash. This suggest the lights was likely the issue. take a look and let me know. thanks Milton's Reef - September 17, 2025 (B-0Dnwxd).pdf

So after 10 years, my tank had a catastrophic crash. ALL but 1 of my corals are DEAD. The only thing that survived is a rock of sunkist bounce. I am crushed!!! Not sure what really happened but I think it was my lights. Last month came back for a week vacation and noticed all the corals looked pail. Few nights later i went in the basement late and noticed the lights were still on. Turns on, some how the control on my Apex was lost and the lights were on 24-7 for at least one full week before I caught it. Now, I am planning to do a complete reset. here are my plans: -Remove and save the water (~200 G) -remove rocks, hose off to get rid of junk, store in a 35g brute with salt water -remove sand, wash out all the guk -I have some live rock in the sump that i will keep going I am hoping to do all of this in a day before i put the sand and rocks back in. Any suggestion before i start? Tank crash.qt

Congrats on the frag. This is much better that a home wrecker

Just curious how many people or driving up I95 this weekend for Reefapooloza NY. I am hoping to find some good deals to restock my tank.

So I noticed that the bubbles on my bubble chamber for my CaRx is not changing. I get about 1 bubble ever 4-5 seconds and i am unable to increase it. I have tried to open the valve to increase it but still nothing. I even checked that the tank has gas and it does. Any idea what is going on here? I can still open and close the solenoid via my Apex

It is not worth it to fix the display. I did have a cheap tablet that i mounted and it served the purpose and worked well for me. I also have Alexa set up for voice command like "turn off Skimmer, ATO, Return pump, Light" etc. It is worth setting up

I know many also say that it can be safe to connect the RO system directly to the ATO if you you a solenoid. I just dont like the idea of giving the tank unlimited access to fresh water. If you go this way, make sure you have a double backup system, with solenoid and float switches etc. good luck

wow, big changes. You are going have a human frag! Congratulations to you.
