    Skimmer air intake

    I thought it might force some more air in maybe making more smaller bubbles other than bigger ones. But the tube to the pump is only one size so I guess not. I do all the adjustment by the gate valve.

    Bully in my tank.

    I agree I would separate the yellow tang for a week

    Skimmer air intake

    So I keep both inlets open to let more air in... or at least I assume that's how it works... I have been trying to get a better wet skim. My water/bubble transition is currently at bottom of collection cup. If I can close one of the inlets, other that my skimmer being quieter, would I have more...

    Well I'll send a pic of my lobo later when my lights turn on, they look completely different. I will add the the poll later too. It is definitely under stress it looked even worse at the lfs. It is slowly looking better in my tank.

    Good to know. And when u say looking at Skelton I would assume it would have to be deflated.

    That's what I was leaning towards I know it's a brain and they no longer use the term wellso, but my lobo is bumpy and more round with alot less waves

    DIY NOPOX Recipe Revealed

    I agree it does work well. Haven't seen real reduction in nitrates yet, my lack of wet skimming, and cheap bacteria but all coral in tank is happier then ever. I also saw the same post you did Paul.

    Diy nopox dosing

    I have been adding special blend every two wks, but I think it's time for change, I'll order the mb7, and next time I get to a lfs, I'll bring some water. I also check nitrates with an api kit, I know it's junk but I test twice a week for nitrates so it saves me a couple bucks on test kits I've...

    Back to my first saltwater tank

    Yeah it's a shame I want to make a nem only tank with the pair but that's to much work for me lol, there are people that will force them, putting them all in a bowl.

    Diy nopox dosing

    Live rock, lots of the rock is original when I first set up 12yrs ago, then I added some more around 6 yes ago that was old live Rick found in my buddies crawl space, I obviously had to let that cycle before adding it. The test kits are still good at least according to the yellow sticker date on...

    Back to my first saltwater tank

    Good luck with the flurry and a nem, I have a breeding pair in my tank and the rather host to a price of dying Monti cap then the rbta. They were both put in at the same time, about 8 months ago. I love the flurries otherwise.

    Diy nopox dosing

    A wk after I started dosing my rbta and corals all looked so happy and still do. So the mix has done wonders for that.

    Diy nopox dosing

    So I've been dosing this for 8 wks now and I haven't seen any change in my nitrates. As I've stated in my tale of the tank all lives stock does look good, we'll except for the little bit of sps I have, they are doing worse. My nitrates hang at 50ppm while my phosphates swing from .25 to .03. The...
