anyone recommend any supplements and additives for LPS tanks?

this takes away the excess nutrients so HA doesn't occur again. Once the HA is gone you use a maintenance dose once a month. So I hear anyway.

I've been recommended to try this out, supposedly a lot of LFS use it on their tanks to keep hair algae gone and fish mortality low. Anyone tried it?

Your rock shelves are so badass! I can't wait to see them with coraline growth on them. Do you equate your coral growth and color to the vodka dosing or the other new additives and lighting you have added? Or is it because the vodka has diminished your phosphates and nitrates and therefor your...

thank you that calculator is very nice

yeah i'd need more than the whole bottle to go up it seems. I'm confused.

It is definitely an electric blue hermit crab. I got two from TB Aquatics. Only one of the two survived the trip.

seriously I know this company is german or spanish or something, but I can't understand their english directions either. What do they mean by... "Dosage: 5 ml sera magnesium plus increas the magnesium level in 2 liters (0.5) gal.) of water by 60mg/l (ppm). sera magnesiumplus can be added...

oh boy, no more 120 for Phil, the wife has her sites on the zero edge!

Re: AGA 120 (very few pictures and lots of dull writing) along for the ride even if it is slow. Remember that the tortoise wins the race in the end.

I guess we missed each other. I left around 11:30. Thanks for the attempt, hopefully you found someone to give it to.

It may have been the salinity, because during that period it had dropped much lower than it had ever dropped before. Has been corrected since then.

a lot of the snails still have their flesh when I find them dead. The mantis would eat them right?

I am actually attempting to *gasp* use it "hidden" in my 46g display tank. So not sure how much I should start with. I guess a sandwhich bag sized would be more than enough. Thanks again!

hey Phil, The tank is about 8 months old and it was brand new. I was originally using RO I got from Wholefoods Market (no problems) until I purchased an RO/DI about 4 months ago. I'd say in the last month and a half I lost about 8 blue legged hermits, 3 turbos, and about 10 of a mix of...

I'm having some issues with invertebrates dying and after doing the standard water tests from a master kit and checking for stray voltage I am still stumped other than the idea of copper being in the water. I use our sink water (in New Brunswick) filtered through a 6 stage RO/DI and I usually...

I could also use some even if just a tiny amount if you are going to the swap. -Matt

I got my unit from Filter Direct (Water General) it is a 6 stage 100gpd unit and it is built very well. I have only used it once so can't really comment on it too much, but after dumping the first gallon out I am getting a 0 TDS reading. I paid $105 for the unit.

can live sand be stored without dying off much? If so I may be interested.

Thanks for the burger! I enjoyed my first meeting.
