    Hard to tell about the flow with so much junk in the water ?. I’d get a filter sock running ASAP to catch the suspended stuff though!

    the junk should demonstrate the flow :rollface:I'll let the culurpa in the fuge in the sump collect all that. it was clear until i messed with the wave setting and started dumping water oput of the sides of the tank. silly me. :facepalm:

  2. I was cleaning my power heads and while cleaning I remembered I had a wp-60 in the garage new in the box. So i stuck it in on the lowest setting and did a pulse. Grant it my tank maintenance sucks and had a lot of cyano. Now its blowing everywhere lol. is this to much for a softy tank? The fish seem to be enjoying it. https://youtu.be/R0rlHgiP9RQ

  3. From spotsy court house I will have to check out tiki corals myself. There is pets plus in staff or on route one that doubles as a uhaul place lol sometime they have good fish but that's about it..

  4. So I switched sides from my iPhone to a samsung note 4 and bought a $5 selfies pro lens kit from 5 below and took some shots. Hope you enjoy 02623178a4e687a927606c1027d6ecfe.jpg890d333a0aca2105e0be22cac1d40491.jpg3616b2d2e3aeccfb7f45c49f8c28cea7.jpg0f57302c1dea4edde89853fb9fd7fd8d.jpg

  5. In a weird way I kind if like it. Under blue LEDs it fluoresces a little. And I think it makes it look more natural. I do have a phosban reactor and some phosphate sponge I guess it couldn't hurt actually using it

  6. ff0b803d2157a3ea507de5040e22fdc8.jpg so I am getting this bloom never had it before. I realize my phosphates are probably high from my too off water so until I get a new set of filters what would eat this. I have a sailfin that's it for algal eaters.

  7. Hey Gary, nice to see some of the geezers are still around.

     

    The IT2080 looks like a pretty good deal. How easy is it to program?

    I have the it 2080 I left it to the default so it follows a solar cycle kind of. At 6am moon lights kick on and slowly progress until full spectrum then ramps down to adding with moon light at midnight then shuts off till 6 am. And if you can design your own spectrum (arrangement if lights and color temp if you want) but it takes longer to get them. I have a d120 that is adjustable on my cube that I have totally blue like actinics and then the full kicks on and then off at a certain time back to actinics then off. Of course with anything the corals may have to adjust to the new lights but I like mine

  8. welcome back dave! i have the evergrow fixtures and am happy with them. every now and then ERC has a group buy or some one may be selling theirs that they dont quite like. i even have one of the chinese fixtures from ebay that works really well on my cube. there are a lot of mixed reviews about LEDs vs MH but i love mine. very little heat and good growth especially with softies. i have seen some people ad t5s because the leds dont have reflectors that bounce around the light like t5 or mh so stoneys kind of brown out on the underside while the top has good color. HTH 

  9. That's the only way I could get it to work from my phone when I'm not hooked to the Wi-fi. One uses the apex's actual 10.0.0.23 address and one uses my computer's IP

  10. Ok I'm late to the game but I figured out if you want to see your dashboard app outside of your home network you'll have to set up port forwarding and use your computers IP address . In iPhone app you can set up 2 programs with different IP addresses to pull it up. Posted Image
