Insecticide huh, what's the ratio you guys are using for your dips

Just wondering if anyone on here dips their new purchases, be it sps zoas palys etc. Havent had a tank in a few years so I'm assuming there are probably some new products out now. Just want to hear what you guys are using, if anything!

Anyone going and bringing frags or have any corals they might want to sell? In the market for zoas, palys, sps, and anemones. Let me know!

Looking forward to picking them up tomorrow night. Thanks again

Why I'm walking around in a torn up pair of steel toes haha

Might be more enough light, how many bulbs are in the t5 fixture, and is it an individual reflector or one big sheet for a reflector

Where are you getting these corals from? Is it the same place? Are they freshly brought in or grown in a tank? How long is it in your tank on average before you start to see it dying off? What are your water parameters? Are these in low or high flow areas? Is it always the same spot in the...

Pics won't post for her right now so Ill throw some I have up. Clowns I love his mohawk haha

Used a 40lb bag in the breeder and I'd say its close to 1.5-2"

None that I can find. I did experiments ranging a span of about 12 fish tank setups, in many different locations and many different variables. I have not had a single anemone that didn't bubble the minute it went into one of my tanks. Those greens came from a tank where they were for 7 years...

Let me know if you have any questions lol.

What size is this sump going to be? What is the thickness on the glass, and how much needs to come off? Might be easier to get acrylic and cut that with a saw, or get new glass cut. There's a real good place up in palmyra that I use, guy actually built himself a 250 gallon freshwater tank lol...

Best refugium light I've ever used was a 6500k cf spiral bulb in a regular socket with a dome reflector. Cost about $10 total lol

haha trust me i came from freshwater tanks for the first 18 years of my life lol. grew up with a 125 full of snakeheads lol thanks dad. I honestly didnt even really know until my second salt tank cause the nitrite spiked in the move and i panicked, because exactly as you said, they are very...

Hey Paul, After being in the fishless cycle for about a week and a half, the cycle stalled out on nitrites. ammonia spiked to 4.0 for a few days, and gradually went down as nitrite increased, and nitrite spiked to about 3.0 i believe, and then started to sink. Nitrates rose, and the ammonia...

both need to be nursed a little bit, starting off as a hospital tank so far lol. Buddy of mine decided to redo his tank and didnt have water for a water change. he also has a lot of dead spots. so the entire tank was full of detritus. rescued both of these before he could kill them -.-

I might take you up on that... On a side note, i am not at all happy with the spectrum being produced from the Rapidled xt-e royal blues. they are way too far on the "Cool blue" side of the spectrum, and the tank has a "windex" look to it. I am going to take the fixture back down and swap out...

yellow watchmen take very well to pistol shrimp, i had one with a candy stripe for 3 years.

I only used optics on the royal blues, and they were 80 degree optics for the XT-E's from RapidLed. Being that the fixture was only roughly 5" over the tank height, and the heatsinks are set up like halides would be, it caused too much of a focus on the left and right sides of the tank and left...
