    AquaMedic Kalkwasser ‘Reactor’ KWR 1000

    Thanks, I'm worried with the tunze kicking in for about 8-10 secs and my small 45, the kalk would spike the tank too much. I might just use a dosing pump to be safe.

    AquaMedic Kalkwasser ‘Reactor’ KWR 1000

    Are you using the stock Tunze pump? I going to be adding a Kalk reactor as well, but didn't know if I would be able to use the Tunze pump to get from the basement to the tank. What is the approximate vertical distance it's pumping up?

    Ph Extremely Low - Windows are open, but next steps?

    Once again thank you for the info. I don't have the room to put anything after the tunze oz, thus the question on the kalk water right into the ato. I can run directly to the sump from my basement. I picked up the new redsea test kit for all, cal and mag. I like it so far, a bit easier to...

    Ph Extremely Low - Windows are open, but next steps?

    Thanks Jcurry, I will certainly fix the probe issue before dosing anything.

    Ph Extremely Low - Windows are open, but next steps?

    So if I did decide to go with Kalk, would running the Kalk to the ATO tank which then feeds the Sump work? Or is it better to have the Kalk water feed directly to the Sump? I have no room in my stand for another piece of equipment, but I run the RO/DI from the basement to the ATO tank.

    Ph Extremely Low - Windows are open, but next steps?

    The 45 has more SPS now then LPS, and more coming (hopefully). I will be starting another week of Alk test logs to see what the demands are. I'm hoping with the continous water changes will be enough. I'm also thinking increasing the Alk at the water change level.

    Ph Extremely Low - Windows are open, but next steps?

    Well the fish and coral are still alive as of 6:00am when I left the house, so hopefully it's just a bad probe. It's almost 1 year old, I will check it out tonight when I get home with calibration fluid again (I did a calibration last night). I do not run a Calcium reactor. I'm thinking...

    Ph Extremely Low - Windows are open, but next steps?

    Over the course of the past few days, my Ph, which has been pretty steady at 7.9 has dropped to 7.00. Thinking it maybe my probe out of calibration, I did calibrate it and still the same. Since, I've opened as many windows as I can without getting yelled at, and I have a air hose running from...

    Are LED's alone enough?

    I can't remember where I read it from, but I'll search for it when I get home, but some "expert" wrote that a light photon is a light photon regardless of where or how it is generated. As long as the par is correct coral cannot tell the difference. Not sure if this is true, but it does make...

    Help me pick a new addition

    Choice and decisions. Maybe I'll just look for another clown for now to go with hawkeye's. Thanks everyone for the input.

    Help me pick a new addition

    Hawaiian flame wrasse was the recommendation. I guess I'll have to keep researching. Thanks for the heads up.

    Someone recommended a pair of hawaiian wrasse. They are really pretty, anyone have experience with them?

    Am I getting swindled?

    I guess I'll continue to be the starter for the mini. Hahaha I'll probably bring the car into one of those shops you listed and ask them if an alarm was put in.

    Am I getting swindled?

    I don't have the car with me (its the Nanny car). It has a seperate remote to start the car. The funny thing is once it starts, I cannot unlock the doors w/o stopping the engine. I've had remote starters and they all allowed the doors to unlock when the engine was running. I've complained...

    Am I getting swindled?

    Oh and it's a 2012 Civic, I was told it only came with a active alarm, thus paying through the nose for both the starter and the alarm. I should have fun armed with all the information you have provided. :) I won't name the dealer directly, but lets just say they are in Madision, NJ

    Am I getting swindled?

    Wow, your the best. Thanks so much for the time to write this up. If your ever in the union area, I'll give you a ora frag of your choice :). Assuming I keep them alive. Lol.

    Am I getting swindled?

    Thanks Kevin for your time. No led indicator and I don't think the car locks itself. I'll have to check that. I think the next step is for me to bring it into a place that installs the same unit. Anyone know a place around the Union area?
