    Newbie Needs Help / advice

    I I started my tank around the same time you did in November and it’s also a 125 gallon display. While my tank was cycling and fish only I pieced things together. The only thing I bought brand new was the sump and feel I got pretty good deals on the rest. I got used lighting from different...

    125 gallons of nature

    I was finally able to fish my saltwater mixing station. So much easier to transfer the water now into the drums. The rodi line goes into the top 55 gallon drum and then I can open a valve to drop the water into the 30 gallon drum with a powerhead in it to mix the saltwater. Maybe one day I’ll...

    How long is the Neptune sale for?

    I ended up pulling the trigger on the trident last night as well.

    Phosphates and Nitrates

    Actually that would be pretty awesome of you. I’d love to have an experienced reefer take a look at my setup and give me some pointers.

    Thanks! I'm in Manalapan. I was at your house with my daughter recently picking up fish from NY Aquatics we ordered. I appreciate the offer I may take you up on it.

    Phosphates and Nitrates

    Thanks Amado, i think i started slow with the GFO by only filling the reactor halfway. The hammer and frogspawn were under the powerheads so they weren't getting too much flow. I moved them out a little bit from underneath to see if that helps.

    The kit di have doesn't have the syringe. This is the kit I'm using. No I don't have an algae bloom.

    Phosphates and Nitrates

    So far no algae bloom. The tank doesn't have much algae so far even though it's only 6 months old now. I didn't seem to go through the ugly phase very long.

    Phosphates and Nitrates

    I too run a refugium, skimmer runs 24/7, and a few MarinePure blocks in the sump and live rock along with filter socks that i change every 3-4 days.. I'm running bare bottom so i felt the blocks would be needed to make up for having no sand. Maybe I'll set the timer for my skimmer with the APEX...

    Phosphates and Nitrates

    Yes I agree and thought it was odd as well. I use the Hannah Phosphate checker and the red sea nitrate. They both have been reading like this for a over a month now. I got both of them last summer brand new so they're less than a year old.

    Phosphates and Nitrates

    Good Morning, I'm having a hard time getting my frogspawn and hammer corals to open up. Also I'm starting to notice a little bleaching on the tip of one my acros. My nitrates are 0 and I'm trying to get them up with a little heavier feeding. Any other ideas to raise them without dosing nitrates...

    Brick Fire

    How is it going now? I didn't realize it continued through the night. The winds were horrible last night. I read one firefighter was in critical condition, i pray he makes it through.

    125 gallons of nature

    It’s been a while since I’ve posted about the tank. I’ve moved most of the fish and coral from the biocube over and getting ready to add a few anemone and clowns to that tank. I’ve gotten some awesome looking corals from fellow Reefers that are slowly showing some growth. I’ve recently added a...

    General pricing

    I’ve gotten almost all of my frags from fellow Reefers. One day when my tank grows out I hope to do the same for other fellow Reefers
