Don't know if this counts but here it is.

Congratulations to the winner of May 2017 picture of the month, TheClark!!!!

I have officially replaced everything that came with this Aquatop system but the tank, sump and plumbing...Today I put in a Current eFlux DC return pump. I love the DC skimmer and everything I read said these were quiet. WOWSA no lie, its silent. The Aquatop pump I had vibrated so much it was a distraction and I hated the rough stop and start for feeding. I was nervous that I would not be able to dial this in low enough for my tank but I actually have it at about 25%. I attached a limewood airstone to the front grate and connected the airline tubing and tomorrow going to see if I can get some microscrubbing going. I have made sure everything I have purchased can be used in a bigger tank :). Only thing I will need to buy to upsize to a 50g will be a second AI Prime....I like to plan ahead LOL. My Corcea clam has been in the tank for a week or so now and seems to be doing great.

Of what? There are so many macros out there................ This is my 14 and well......................

I would totally do that but 10 is all that fits under the tank. If I have a spare there won't be down-time when I fill. I practically need a bucket of two-part to keep going for the few days it takes me to get it filled. The way my system goes through media, it's stupid for me not to have a back up.

Holly, you should just get a 20 lb and save yourself some time by not having to swap as often. I run a 20 lb on my 180 and I couldn't imagine having to swap 4 times as often. I think I've refilled 3 or 4 times the past 2 years. I can't really recall.

Miles I just want to say Thanks! .................they all look good and well not wanting one................ Good to see this What are you after ??????????????? Miles.....................I can bring you something next time..........................

Funny, I was just considering looking for a spare myself. Now that I can get them swapped out on Sat or Sun near me however it's less of an issue. If you do happen to find more than one maybe give me a shout.

That's what I was gonna try to do with it.

These tanks are great for cutting down into frag tanks. Cut it 5-6 inches tall with a 40 breeder underneath for a sump and you're good to go.

Can't wait to try this stuff!! All the corals at the shop look awesome!!!!!

This weekend we are running a sale on Fritz RPM Salt. Regular price $64. 200 gallon box $10 off with $50 livestock purchase $20 off with $100 livestock purchase Come in a grab one of the best salt mixes on the market!

Hey Miles... just to be clear, it appears that this month's topic is encrusting corals? Just want to make sure any new folk catch that.

Oregon City... it's actually in the thread (sorry, couldn't resist)

Here's my latest update on my tank. I have spent a stupid amount of money on a variety of things. I have lost a few fish, I mean lost...never to be seen again with a screen top. Current and pretty long term residents are Darwin clown(was first fish) I have tried to add 2 others first one I found dead after being seemingly fine second one completely disappeared, again fine, active and eating when I left for work that morning. Lost both fire fish, separately. Again one I saw dying and removed it one vanished. So also doing great is a sapphire damsel and a orange spot Goby. He has a pistol buddy. Lots, probably too many LPS and Zoas. The WWC sps have not faired well but I should never have bought them. [language filter] ambien. Got lots of equipment, ATO upgraded skimmer, Koralia wavemaker, fans and heater controller, dosing pump for the Red Sea foundation system with Nopox. Yesterday I ordered the Seneye Reef monitor. So here is the lesson of what too much disposable income and not enough self control can get you in 8 weeks. I must be doing something right cause these corals are growing and showing like crazy. I am getting a Ragnarox island made for my WWC Zoa garden to show off my Darth Mauls, Scarfaces, Utter Nonsense and a few others. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
