Julian from TLF was quoted saying that automatic dosing isn't an issue on another forum.

Not sure what TLF is but that’s what I was hoping just because I ordered a gallon jug and didn’t wanna have to shake that thing every time I go to add it haha.

So im gonna start dosing Acropower in the tank and was gonna set it up with a dosing pump, but was concerned because it says to shake well before each use. So my question is has anyone done this? Is there any concern with setting it up with a dosing pump and not shaking the bottle each time prior to dosing? If set up with a dosing pump how did you keep it mixed if it needed it?

Also was curious as to any brightwell aquatic products? I was thinking about the zooplankton but wasnt sure which ones would be good to dose, I have a scallop, SPS, LPS, zoas, and some softies.

I think the plus side of that tank was it was barely used.  Marinelsnd DD tanks do not have a great reputation though 

Dang wasn’t aware of that just liked the idea of those dimensions, sucks they don’t have a good rep

Dang wish I had seen this before, those are awesome dimensions I wish my 180 was like that. Just reading those I already imagined how I would do the rock and everything.

Do you have any pics of the torch? Where are you located?

I have a calcium reactor, 10lb CO2 tank (currently empty), 3/4 bag TLF reborn, 3/4 bag NeoMag, and Milwaukee pH meter I’m looking to get $180 for. I can’t seem to figure out what I’m doing with it and am just gonna go back to doing 2 part dosing. 

The not sure if there is a leak with the regulator or if I just can’t get this thing on tight or an o ring needs to be replaced but the tanks only seem to last me about a month which I thought it would last longer. 

Calcium reactor has a spot for the probe on the top, meter is a MC122 pH controller (which on Amazon is $130 alone). 

Dang haha, I always wanna go to the meetings but they are usually on Sundays (which I work) then one lands on Saturday but I’ll be out of state taking the kids somewhere for sprint break. Everyone will have a great time out at Paradise Corals.

Any pics of the rainbow lobo if its still available?

dang man, if you get it im looking forward to the pics, the 180 already looked great. 

any concern about the it affecting your tank glass? How long do you leave the beam on the aptasia?

If you havent found what your looking for yet, I know Bobby who owns Auto Spa 360 in Vancouver had quite a bit for sale if I recall correctly.

I have always messaged him to make sure he is available, as he is out of town doing shows sometimes. 

Ya I messaged him on facebook (right after I saw this post yesteday) but havent gotten a response so figured I would ask and see if anyone was aware, was thinking about hitting him up this weekend and take a peak at all the LPS he has (maybe some SPS too).

Is rudy still open to public on Friday/ Saturday or is it by appointment or what? 

Not that close to Oregon City but Paradise Corals in Hillsboro usually has a couple in stock. I would say hit up @MrBret, also Cuttlefish has them in most of the time I have been there.

Great help @Blue Z Reef

Nice work @bamburgb getting it fixed up.

Love to see this kind of stuff happening!

 

Me too I love how everyone on the forum is really helpful and there was that thread going around a while ago of what people did for a living haha, lots of experience in different areas so its one of those have a question about ANYTHING (tank related or not) Im sure someone on here knows a thing or two about it haha.

I’m sure I’ll have some available then if you’re still interested. I’m thinking of setting up an anemone tank too. I have 6 in my display and it really limits space for other corals

I was in the same boat you were in, mine kept splitting to where I was getting over run and decided to trade them into an LFS, I ended up taking a few to Brett over at paradise corals. I would hit him, Jeff or Seahorse Aquarium supply up if your looking to get them out of the tank relatively fast.

Awesome! Glad it’s sorted for now. Also, you can always jumper around the led in a pinch to get the channel up and going again. They are cheap enough it’s good to have extras on hand.

 

 

Anytime you need a hand I’m happy to help. Can only really help with black box leds as the nicer ones typically have a pre fabbed  pcb board that I don’t have the tools to fix unlike the Chinese style with individual diodes and easy soldier points.

Ya I think Ill create a spot under my tank (sealed in a ziplock or something of course) just for spare Diodes, 

I have been seeing a lot of biocube 14 and 29 for sale lately. I started with a 29 biocube and those were great AIO tanks. I know its a bit bigger but I just saw someone had posted on FB a 29 gallon biocube with stand for  $100.

I always order extras since it takes so long to ship.

Thanks so much man, Im gonna be placing an order for a few to have on hand, but in the mean time I had a smaller spare LED light in the garage and was able to take 2 diodes from it and now the light is working perfectly.
