    Dan's 90G Reef

    If you have a multimeter you can buy a sensor for a lot less than the entire unit. http://www.apogeeinstruments.com/quantum/?gclid=CK7D1arkiroCFUWd4AodYWUANg Ive been meaning to pick up one.

    Dinoflagellates

    How long did you have your lights out for and was there any ambient light hitting your tank during that period? They came back within a week or so the two times that I only kept my lights off for 2 or 3 days and didnt cover my tank to keep the room lights from hitting it. It took a 5 day...

    Upgrading 75 Gallon to 200 Gallon... good idea or bad?

    That probably means that he isnt willing to ship. I dont think the USPS has a priority box big enough for the tank. ;) When I bought the fish it took a little bit to get in touch with him. Im not sure that he is on RC very often. Im sure he will get back to you.

    Upgrading 75 Gallon to 200 Gallon... good idea or bad?

    Good luck! I bought a fish off of him a few weeks ago but didn't see the tank.

    Best sand to get

    Another vote for TE Reef Flakes. I only used 3 bags in my in my 300. One bag would be plenty for you.

    Upgrading 75 Gallon to 200 Gallon... good idea or bad?

    I see that you already have a pair of led fixtures on your current tank. You could add 4 T5s to them and get a decent spread across the tank. For not much more money (about 175 each) you could grab a pair of reefbreeder value fixtures and run them with your existing lights and have enough light...

    Upgrading 75 Gallon to 200 Gallon... good idea or bad?

    Like others have said you can really find some good deals if you are patient and don't mind buying used. So many people come and go from this hobby. Tropiquarium is probably going to be tough to beat on new tank prices. Are you looking for a 200DD? Here is one for sale that includes a stand and...

    Dinoflagellates

    Good luck and let us know how you make out. I'm on day 3 with my lights off and am dosing peroxide. I am going to give it one more day and the ramp my lights back up over a few days. I also noticed that my DI resin on my RO had mostly changed colors so I changed that out also.

    Dinoflagellates

    The first time I did it was for 3 days but they came back after a month or two. The second time was for 5 days and I wrapped the tank in black trash bags to eliminate any light. It my case they were really starting to irritate my corals and nothing else was appearing to work so I got more...

    Dinoflagellates

    I think you are thinking about diatoms and silicates. I haven't heard that they fuel dinos. Dinos can be a real PITA. I had issues with them on my last tank and they have made an appearance on my new tank. There are a couple of long threads on RC and some of the other sites about them and I...

    T5 / LED hybrid DIY

    I'm sure there are plenty of guys out there that would like the options that diy offers but don't have the time or the skill. Not to mention those that have tried leds and want to go back. Go for it!

    The 210 tank build

    Great shots of the fish. Are they ventralis anthias? What temperature do you keep your tank at? I was thinking about getting some but I thought they required a little lower temperature. There are so many interesting anthias out there.

    Aquarium movers?

    If you call the main number they will set you up with the right guy. It seems to be a relatively small outfit.

    Aquarium movers?

    Morrish Tucking/Movers in Eatontown. I believe the deliver tanks for tropiquarium. Spotter used them to deliver his 315 gallon tank that weighed 700+ pounds. When I bought his tank I used them to move it from his basement to mine. The guys were great and very professional. Moving livestock...

    You're making quick work of this project! I'm looking forward to seeing some shots over your tank.

    Mike's 315 Gallon Build

    Hey Steve, sorry that I missed your post. I think it's too soon to pass judgment to the t5 setup. I have lost a few sps frags but that could have just been from water chemistry and the transition. The rest of my corals seem to be doing very well. I wasn't crazy about the original bulb...

    E-a-g-l-e-s eagles!

    No kidding... I won't be surprised if an 8 and 8 record wins it. As an Eagles fan I was surprised how well oiled their offense seemed the first two weeks. I was expecting more of what we're saw Thursday night until at least mid season. I still think their qb of the future is coming out of next...

    Red Slime Algae I Think

    Glad to hear that you were able to get it in check. My tank is going on 6 weeks and have been going throught the usual algae blooms. The diatoms showed up first and have pretty much faded. Im seeing some cyano and brown algae but that seems to have leveled out. About a week or so ago I dinos...
