Grandmaster Reefer (9/13)

  1. 20mg per gallon or 20mg per 10 gallons?
  2. I have some Fluconazole from a few years ago, will give it a try. The Wife says to tear it down and start over.........says she'll buy the rock. 
  3. CUC- Mexican Turbos, Top Crown and Astrea snails.
  4. First I'd like to thank all of you for the replies. Salifert readings: Alk- 10.9 Cal- 520 Mag- 1440 Rock is live rock that dried out while waiting for replacement tank, twice. Rock was given an acid bath so basically dead when tank was setup. RODI water for top off/water changes, no phosphates detected. Filters were changed a month ago. Using a calcium reactor with reborn media. Flow- 4 MP60's, Red Dragon 150W for return pump. Lighting- 6 XR30 G4's ran 8 hrs. a day at 70%. Tank has been running Two Years this month. First Year and a half rock was covered with coraline algae. Now rock is all white. Have use Sea Clear, GFO and Rowaphos to control phosphates. Have to dose No3 to keep numbers up. Frozen Mysis is rinsed with RODI water before feeding.
  5. 225 gal. 3 Tangs 1 CBB N03- 5-10 P04 - 0.67(Last checked) *ALK- 11.2 *CAL- 563 *MAG- 1415 *Per APEX
  6. Was feeding Mysis shrimp. Have stopped and switched over to Nori sheets.
  7. I keep pulling algae and it keeps coming back
  8. Been having the leaching problem for last 6 months to a year.
  9. I believe my rocks are leaching phosphates. Tested last week while running Rowaphos and phosphates were 0.07. Tested yesterday after taking reactor off-line and phosphates were 0.67. Should I just replace the rock or continue with phosphate remover?
  10. Could be: Acoel Flatworm - Neutral Hitchhiker. Doesn't harm anything, however, can grow greatly in numbers quickly.
  11. Along the frame, there is a ledge about 1/8-3/16" wide. The glass center brace sits atop of this ledge. It appears that the glass was held in place with silicone.
  12. Nothing is broken. There's a ledge where the glass sits atop of the frame.
