I have a pretty nice leather that has begun dropping parts of itself off. I really don't want to wait for it to fall away completely on its own. Can I snip it with a razor blade ? It developed a hole and it is almost separated from main body. And if I can cut it away who wNts it? :-).

So since I picked up my Hanna meters I've been checking stuff much more often and with better precision. Well started seeing phosphate increase. Checked her and there. Running phosban. Decided to check RODI storange tank. Out of filters reading is 1 ppm. Water in tank was 60ppm!! The...

I was setting up a new gfo cartridge and forgot to catch the first water that came through. Definitely got some into the sump and of course into the tank. How bad a situation is this?

Mine had a channel go out. I emailed the company and I'm sure they'll get me fixed up but it might take a few days. My controller should still be under warrenty but I have 2 out of 5 lights out. Was 3 out of 5 bit I swapped the channels. If anyone has one they aren't using I'd love it if I...

Picked up a beautiful clam a month ago (from trop). Looked at it today and the flesh is withdrawn into the shell. It's usually fleshy and blue. Any ideas?

I think we should have a forum dedicated to this topic. Anyway. What is this? It's small (but has grown) pink and puts out tenticles at night.

Got my 300 up. Wife wants 150 gone. It's drilled and water tight. Just took it down tonight. Free! You have to come and get it. It's in good shape. Not perfect but hey for free you can't complain! In howell.

Ok Im redesigning my sump cause of the glass 70 wont fit in to the new space. I ordered a ruff neck (I think that's the name) but its a 70 gallon watering trough. I also ordered a 20 gallon that will sit above it and be the first vessel that my drain will run into. This will also be the...

And my god was it a monster. Truck with lift gate. Quad with heavy duty electric winch. And lots of insane friends If work would just stop making me work I'd have more time to work on this build. But I have a secret weapon. The iron worker father in law is in from Puerto Rico. Pics to...

Ok. I have a nicely behaved and quite friendly 70 gal sump. But I'm wondering if it's at all useful for my new build. I considered converting my 150 into a sump but it is heavy and not very polite. New tank will be 300 gal. Those with larger tanks what do you have?

My wife actually said these words...."you might as well go for the star fire it's only 500 more"... 96x30x25 300 gallons Peninsula style It's going to be a labor of love. Stay tuned. :-)

Not quite sure why but my tank is being overrun with brown stringy alge. I tried cleaning it and it's not much better. Been doing water changes but found out after a day that I had my salt at 1.030. Took it down to .025 bit now one of my orbic cardinals is dying. I'm going to keep cleaning...

Just about to put my fairy wrass into dt. My dori (kids named her) has always had blotchy face but her tail is ragged and has bumps on it. Looked up lateral line pics and she's a match. She is eating like a pig and is active but the bumps I just noticed them. I changed out some old peer...

That does or does not hold water I'm trying to help out a biology teacher who has an iguana (Godzilla) that has grown too large. The long story is that they won't buy him one cause they are trying to push him to get rid of it. So i want to get him one. For a tiny price. You know free or...

Jumped out of my tank. Found him this morning. I have 2 screens covering each side of the tank. Tank had center glass brace so I went with 2 frames and brs clear mesh. I think cause I put egg crate squares at each corner to lift metal up off tank rim (wanted to keep aluminum from getting...
