power came back after an hour or so last night, went out again this morning at 9:30, running on a generator now, they said i wouldn't have power back till later tonight, and i'm pretty sure the hurricane is still a couple miles away from us at this point, i think someone sneezed near a power line...

Apparently it already hit me, my power is out. :huh: apparently even if you just talk about a storm around me it goes out.

Surface exchange is great, fresh air line to the skimmer, which works well. Calibrated the probe a few times, also dipped it in 10ph fluid and it measured it perfectly. What I can't figure it is this, yesterday at about 6:30, ph took a nosedive from 7.73 down to 7.63 within a few hours and...

i have a 6500 running watt generator and it runs my entire house, tank, fridge, extra freezer in the garage, well pump, all of it accept for the A/C, water heater and oven. I have a gas range so good there.

Well, in all honesty, its there, its visible, but its not fully overtaking anything yet, and its beatable just by correcting your nutrients. I would do the gfo, be careful how much you feed the tank, and manually remove as much as you can with each water change, all i do is use i think a half...

yup, echinata takes the cake for the priciest frag i've bought at this point, now i just have to figure out where i want to put them, lol. Oddly enough i these are my first true blue coral, i have others with hints of it, and blue is my favorite color. Thought i had placement all figured out...

GHA is mostly a waiting game, keep up on water changes, run gfo, i would change it maybe once a week for two weeks and go to two weeks per change after that, and manual removal on each water change. I've battled what i thought would never end with bryopsis for 4 or 5 months before i found a...

I'm not sure but i know a lot of anthias prefer groups, could there be a possibility he reached maturity, and, for lack of a better word, is bummed that there are no mates? Just a guess as i've never had them but i was always told accept for a few certain ones that they are better in groups.

Two new additions, been waiting for a long time to put them in, blue vermiculata and ice fire.

i still use a hand scraper, but i've heard a lot of good things about one called flipper.

stocking up on beer, ellio's pizza and fries. probably some popcorn, some extra vodka for the fish if they get jittery. I think i have enough gas to last 2 days.

what type of anthia is it?

i also like the other idea of splitting up the frags between each person, assuming they can all handle it.

This would work great with friends, not so much people that just met. If i give you $200 and expect 3-4 nice frags in 6 months, the problem is, what if that guy decides to just not hand out the coral, takes it and you never hear from him again. Hard to prove you handed over $200 and for what...

This could work and i was interested in doing it at one time, but for it to work right, the person receiving the frags needs to take on two responsibilities. One, they need to be able to pay up front for the order, and if someone drops from that order, needs to be able to cover that cost, or...

To get to my main point and question, My house will not see a window open in the winter or in the middle of summer, the only thing i can do is run the line to my skimmer, could this just be a fluke due to high humidity and temp outside causing the outside air to not have much affect on my ph or...

I got an apex a few weeks back, and after hooking up a ph probe to it, i discovered my ph was sitting between 7.5-7.6. i ran an air line from outside to my skimmer, it seems to help, and put the ph between 7.7 and 7.8 after running it for a day. I then had a chance to open some windows and the...

Looking good to me, once they start growing out and filling in it feels like everything starts coming together.

I know they make them, i actually traded some coral for mine, definitely not a home built one either.

I really want some euphyllia in my tank, the more i look the more i see how much room i don't have to put one in, lol.
