    Tank or Ship

    I think there's some humor here between a sunken-ship-in-an-aquarium and an aquarium-in-a-sunken-ship. But I can't come up with a punch line. Help me...

    Hannah Mag kits being sent

    I found out about it pretty quickly and posted my request for the new reagents just as quickly. Mr. Saltwater Tank (on SaltwaterAquarium.com) posted his 2nd review of the checker two months ago. Here's the sad news he posted:

    Just figured I start it all over again

    This dish certainly interests my palate. Where can I get one with Italian Prosciutto? (Somehow good paninis are getting harder to find where I am, and I'll take what I can get.)

    My engineer gobies

    I had two of them once, forty-odd years ago. I had a nice blue carpet anemone in the tank with them. I got the carpet from a fellow "mixed tank" keeper (as vert & invert tanks were known before anyone had "reef tanks"). He was cleaning out his inverts so he could copper his tank. Anyway...

    Hanna Magnesium Checker Issue...

    WOO HOO!!! I got my replacement magnesium test kit in the mail today! They replaced the whole Checker test kit, not just the reagents. It came with an apology and a discount on my next order... All things said, it's nice to see a company standing behind their product.

    Wtb algae scrubber

    Location? (For possible future reference.) I've recently hit zero phosphates and zero nitrates using a 120W scrubber (Ice Cap) and an odd DIY Chaeto filter. For better or for worse, I'm also looking to run an automated Nannochloropsis culture with the algae output going into my main system. I...

    Aqua Medic Plankton reactor

    Your kalk reactor is probably flat bottomed. I'm inclined to believe that the funnel shaped bottoms (or 2L soda pop round bottoms) of are preferable because gunk shouldn't collect in either. That said, when searching for Aqua Medic Plankton reactors this past weekend, I actually came across a...

    Aqua Medic Plankton reactor

    While searching for the perfect soda bottle, I remembered I had one of these Aqua Medic reactors that I picked up used many years ago. Looking at it again, it occurred to me that it was just a tall skinny bottle. It would need similar fixings to those needed by the ((FORDTECH)) design. The...

    Aqua Medic Plankton reactor

    Looking for one or two Aqua Medic Plankton reactors, preferably those without the fluorescent light. Here's a link to what it looks like: Plankton Reactor - Aqua Medic (DISCONTINUED)

    PH levels

    I wouldn't be happy with your reported pH levels. Suggest you validate them with some other pH test kit(s). If they actually are that low, I'd consider dosing Kaltwasser. Just don't dose the kalk as a top-off water replacement - dose a fixed amount daily that is less than your daily top off...

    Oops ~~~ I Overdid my Algae Filtration

    My algae filtration has been a little too much for my system. I've been getting 0 ppm measurements (Phosphorus Hanna Checker) for my phosphates and the same 0 ppm measurements (Hi Range Hanna Checker) for my nitrates. I'm currently using Sea Chem's Flourish to boost my phosphates and...

    Tank Move Will Need Help

    Suggest you offer free beer (and maybe even some free hot barbeque) for your recruits! You might even consider billing the occasion as an NJRC gathering! GLWM! (Good Luck With Move!)

    Salt

    Wilson416 ~ What is the location of your I/O buckets? I currently pay $50 for a 200G I/O Box, so $70 for 320 in buckets is hard to beat!

    Remodeling

    Mark, If it isn't too late, try hanging a filter sock inside the tank and use a pump like a maxijet to feed into the sock through a hose.

    Purple gorgonian 08057

    Hi Chris... Did it originate from ECOGORGONIAN? It looks like it did, and their photosynthetic gorgs tend to be quite hardy! Bob
