    Was ready to give up then...

    Where'd you get the crab you put on the smaller stand's door, or did it come with it? Makes me want to put one on my tank's superstructure and get a real crab (Emerald Crab?) to put in my tank!

    Danner Supreme Aqua-Mag 1200 Pump ~ NEW and CHEAP!

    You can't beat the price - if it is too loud, you can always make salt water with it. I use a Mag 18 to mix new salt water in a 55 gallon drum, and the water is ready a lot faster than with some old powerhead.

    PAR meter

    Hallowhead... (1) Where in north Jersey do you live? This influences whether or not I might be able to "swing by". (2) Do you have a lap top Windows PC?

    RO Membrane info

    Mark_C... With standard sized membranes, I'm inclined to believe that "one size fits all". I haven't looked, but I'd personally defer to any BRS preferred brands. My only caveat is that you perform the necessary cleansing of the membrane (running it for X* gallons and then tossing out the...

    5g frag tank, frag rack mods

    This looks like a clever frag rock mod, and I look forward to seeing how it plays out... If I was looking to do something with similar functionality, I think I'd try drilling a lot of 1/2" holes in a real (vs. faux) live rock. If I had a need to go the faux variety, there are people out there...

    Brrr good morning reef peeps

    Monkfish is a favorite eating fish of my younger son. But since I sent him a photo of one, I'm not sure it is still his favorite fish... Note: monkfish do have peculiar reproductive methology ~ the male attaches himself to the female, and is then gradually and completely absorbed into the...

    Tank Bacteria - Aquabiomics

    Interesting stuff indeed! But are you planning to make any bacterial adjustments? And, if so, how will you do it?

    Dendros

    Are you feeding them? I hand feed mine two or three times a week. In a well fed tank you apparently don't need to, but mine are still in my frag tank.

    How do you water change?

    I've programmed my Apex to change 5 gallons of water a day. My pre-made SW comes from a 120 I use for water storage. Hardest part is making 50 gallons of SW every week or two to keep a decent water level in the 120. I make the SW in a separate 50G drum. Note: I'm not using any dosing pumps...

    Roxanne

    Good luck with Roxanne! The Rosy Scales are my favorite, but I've had 2 or 3, but never had much luck with them. I likewise haven't done well with the Solarensis, or the Orange Flanked variety which are similar in size. I may try a Scott's Fairy Wrasse in the future, just because they are...

    How to get fish out of return

    We probably don't have the same setup, but... I've got a 180 with overflows in both far corners. I've had fish jump into both of them. The height of the overflow is almost two feet, and one can't reasonably get a net into either at that depth. So... I added sand to the overflow and slowly...
