Yeah, this year isn't shaping up to be a good one. My place of work went through a reorg 2 months ago, my boss was let go and today there was another round due to cost cutting.

I would double check the red sea test kit. I just picked up their new test kit and it is very good. I've been testing it along side the Hanna and I get results within the acceptable tolerance each time.

I just read a post on RC how a number if people have had success with TechM for the bryopsis. Just raise mag didn't work for all people. Either method I think it's worth a shot.

Unfortunately that set up doesn't work for me as I don't have the reactor near the tank/sump. Yes, I will be filling the ato with kalk water. What I'm concerned with is the concentration of kalk, as 10 sec of very strong kalk (if the is such a thing) will swing alk faster then a weaker...

Agree

I do use the Neptune Apex, the problem I see is that the Tunze goes on for a minimum of 10 sec, which is perfect for the ATO function. If 10 sec of Kalk water is too much then the issue is the over dose. I doubt the PH probe will be that fast to catch it running within the 10 secs. I've been...

Makes sense and I'm glad to hear it's working for you. I think you have a larger tank then I have so you can absorb the difference better. I'm looking to keep the Tunze running during the day and just fill the Top Off tank with the Kalk. I have a dosing pump which will be used but I don't...

Another Kalk question. I am ready to put my reactor online and would like to use my Tunze Os ATO. I'll have the Kalk from the reactor filling the ATO to prevent an overdose as others has mentioned the ATO set up would be the safest. The issue with the Tunze is that when the ATO kicks on, it...

You can't compare straight memory numbers between macs and pc, Mac's are architected very differently and are very efficient at memory usage. Yes there is a upfront cost, but there are a number of reviews which shows after you get to the same benchmarks from a performance and software...

oh well, I was born 1/7/69. Geez I'm getting old.

I use the glass holes stuff as well, I just have my return below the water only deep enough to fill my sump 3/4 full. What I did was turn the pump off, let the water drain into the sump, then put the return a bit lower then the water level, which will be at the bottom of the teeth on the...

Hi and welcome. Lots of good info around here, check out the build threads and you will get a lot of great suggestions. The numbers at the end of your handle; your birthday? Jan 7, 1969?

Here is a recent FTS

That was a year ago!!! It's a bit more of a mess, lol.

I'll take some recent pictures when I can. Seems as I have a lot more equipment then when I started this 1 year ago!!

So after a cracked bulkhead and hours of RO/DI water making the tank is finally cycling. I still need to order some custom doors and make a housing for the light fixture. But I guess I have at least 4 weeks for the cycle to finish.

So here is the latest. I'm pretty slow to update. Stand with tank on it: A test run of the plumbing lucky only 1 leak from a cracked bulkhead: I hate painting, but that part is done (the dolly isn't part of the stand): Installed a new RO/DI, I was having problem with my last unit and I...

So, I found some of my previous posts on MR, so here is my 1 year old build pictures. I update this site more so, I'll try to fill in the rest. DYI Stand being built: Test fitting the Custom sump made by CustomKing. Its 18x18x16: Decided to use the Glass-Holes 700 overflow with the 1/2"...

I'm running 1 AI Sol Blue on my 45 cube. Now that the tank is 1 year ago, I'm a little better keeping the parameters in control, I've seen a great increase in SPS growth. I'm using the parameters as suggested from this forum of White-60%, Blue-45%, and Royal Blue-45% I would think that 1...

I have 2 Pepperment shimps which I am offering up to a good home(s). I've had them for a year, and are currently in my QT tank. They are available for pick up most evenings after 7:00pm in the 07901 zip code (Summit, NJ or somewhere close i.e. OGii). This coming Tuesday anytime should work as...
