Got tired of buying NeoPhos at $12-$15 for half a liter. I found a post elsewhere by Randy Holmes-Farley and now my cost is 6-cents for half a liter. Using Trisodium Phosphate from Loudwolf.
2 grams of TSP to 1 Liter RODI water. Mix well.
Wanted to share in case anyone wants to save some...
Anyone used Tampa Bay Saltwater live rock and sand recently? Been thinking about ordering one of their small treasure chest boxes to add to my tank to try and help get rid of my dinos. Looking for feedback.
I'm considering starting breeding berghia nudis. Is there a local need? I'd rather not ship, but if there is a good enough local need, I'd strongly consider starting up. I would need a few months to propagate enough aiptasia to be able to support the berghia.
Let me know if there is a need...
I am fighting Ostreopsis dino's for the second time. UV has been running for a week so far. My nutrients were bottomed out, so I'm assuming that is what caused the ostreo. Right before this I was treating for GHA (I assume it's GHA) and winning using FluxRX. Now that I am dosing phosphate and...
Been so long since I had to fight GHA....what's the best remedy? Both phos and nitrate are showing 0. Should I run GFO anyway? I don't want to keep the levels bottomed out. I've already removed a whole bunch by hand. I'm going to refresh my CUC and add pods and phyto. But anything else I can...
Now that I'm back in the game...there have been so many changes in the 12ish years I've been out. Previously I dosed BRS 2-Part and had good results. At least I think they were good lol.
Now I've heard about and come across All-For-Reef. Seems easier as it is one liquid for everything.
Trying...
Anyone here fought Ostreopsis Dinos and won? Tank is 4.5 months old. I've been fighting Ostreopsis Dinos now since 2/16. So many people say they should have been gone in a week, but mine persist. I am running a 36W UV at 100gph on my 50 gallon tank. My nutrients were 0, but have been steady at...
Should the skimmer be turned off while dosing live phyto? I'm dosing to feed the pods I added as well as try to avoid the ugly stage. I'm thinking I should and if so, how long should it stay off?
Has anyone ordered from TSM Aquatics recently? I know they moved to Pennsauken not too long ago. I'm looking to order QT'd fish and came across them. Just looking for any personal experiences...
Is the standard to still use egg crate on the bottom of the tank and place the rocks on that before adding the sand? I've seen many tank builds recently that don't seem to both with it anymore........
