BRS has AI Hydra HDs for 30% off

Glad everyone is capitalizing on the deal! My box arrived in pretty decent shape. Instead of glue/epoxy I’m going to drill this rock and use rods to hold everything in place

Hey everyone, just wanted to pass along a sale. FORTY POUNDS of LifeRock for $83 on Amazon with free shipping (for Prime members)

Just saw this on Reef2Reef. I’ve donated to two or three Kickstarters and got burned every time. Two never came to life and used up all their capital, the other was considerably more expensive for the final product. Super cool idea but Gonna wait til this hits retail shelves to bite...

The wall behind my tank is “Gotham Grey” but the back of my glass is painted black anyway. I feel like the tank looks better that way but that’s just my opinion. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’m thinking Brittle Worm? Haven’t seen one that looks like this though...

Anyone?

Hey everyone, I was wondering if there’s a list or spreadsheet somewhere of which Corals can be next to each other in our tanks? I understand that (normally) the same species can touch without much damage, but will fight for real estate but I’m thinking more along the lines of other species. I don’t mind them fighting it out for territory but I don’t want them outright killing each other.

I’ve had mine over two years with zero issues, and it gives amazing water movement. [emoji2371] I will agree on the noise though. Above 70% it’s quite noisy. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks everyone for your input. I'm going to get this Alk under control then go from there.

What basic parameters should I be shooting for for a Mixed Reef? Cal in the 400s Mag in the high 12-low 13 range And Alk around 8? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I'm going to look into 2-part more. It seems easier, especially in my case. I just stuck w/ the Seachem stuff because its what I learned from my LFS back in San Diego and it seemed to work well when I had the tank set up there.

Fixed. I’m a dumb-dumb and fat fingered it. Also, would you recommend discontinuing the manual dosing and adding 2-part to my ATO? I’ve always been worried about it dosing too much or too little. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I was told that Alk on the higher end would help grow SPS but lower Alk would help coloration? Which is why I’ve kept it on the higher end up to this point. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

- Just carbon, no GFO. - I’m usually testing twice a week - I just assumed it was flatworms from the symptoms the tank was showing, and not changing anything as far as water,temp,feeding,dosing is concerned. Although I did add more phosban to the recommended levels over time. This is really all I’ve been tracking on a constant basis. I’ve tried not to chase numbers, just make sure everything is in the within the recommended levels. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I was using Salifert for Phosphate but I’m out and haven’t tested in about a week but the readings were almost unnoticeable after running the phosphate reactor. I use API test strips for the rest of the other parameters (aside from what I stated in the OP) I was under the assumption that Acro and other SPS liked ULN systems, and like I said, everything else in the tanknis doing great.

No, I can’t see where this is going, which is why I’m here to learn... Everything in the tank was doing amazing, and still is minus the Acro (which was growing for a while). My other SPS is still growing. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

You think I should discontinue the reactor for now? Or go longer without water changes? at the moment I only have to clean the glass maybe every three days. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
