It's great having a large tank to farm the corals for the nano, 3 pieces of rock a fist full of frags and their you have it instant reef. I'm hoping the tank won't give me to much trouble cycling as I've been soaking the sand and rock for weeks but as you can see their is a little algae starting...
Great thread ,maybe we can put to rest some of these myths. I know it was a touchy subject the other day wither the egg crating, once I free up my 5 gallon quarantine tank I'm going to stuff it to the gills. What other theories can we think of.
Swapping livestock around in the next few days with an additional tank being added to the mix ,looking for a pair of of clowns ,black,snowflake ,ect something other than true perculas unless its a larger pair. I've got tons of sps frags to trade , 200 pounds Liverock , a 2x 250metal halide with...
An idea I just thought of in the "fuge" what you guys think if I put rubble rock in one of those draw string filter socks ? Not going to bother with a protein skimmer as I heard the nano ones are a joke. Also thinking of taking the true perculas out of my 90 to put in her tank then getting a...
Don't get me wrong I'm ignorant and thick headed but please don't think I'm trying to start an argument , i just find it amusing more than anything! I've found everything that gets put in the tank goes through a cycle of algea covering it from white or black egg crate , clear plastic on protein...
Does glass leach phosphates too? I think the sky is falling chicken little. If phosphates leaching from my egg crating is all I have to worry about than ill be in good shape
This was brought up a few months ago , believe it to be bogus. 9 out of 10 people here probably have or had white egg crate in their system me being one of them and I have a flourishing sps system next it'll be white PVC I'm not feeding into it
Oh also. Since the investment has already been made on the apex system on my dt I'm thinking of linking the two systems together ,just as I know parameters can fluctuate a lot with these small systems. Posted in the wtb looking for a an eb4 or eb8 plus probes. I've been cycling rock and live...
Well my daughter has caught the reef addiction ,at only 18 months old! We started with a freshwater planted tank in her room but seems she has lost interest in it and would rather sit in front of the sump/frag tank below my DT. The frag tank has a few fish in it for her to chase around but it's...
If I had a dollar for every fish that has dead since starting this hobby I'd be a rich man. Don't know what the heck is going on system is running top notch crazy coral. Current tank mates include. Two clowns , fire fish , purple fish fire , mandarin goby , pink line shrimp goby, two lawnmower...
If you need rock I've got lots from ed take what you need it's been cycling for about two weeks ,have you thought about clearing out the sandbed while you have everything out ,figure its got to be built up with detritus
