You can see it in action here: http://www.pnwmas.org/forums/showthread.php?13252-Grassi-s-65g/page13 You can see the difference with a Maristar running 14k Phoenix

I run this combo now and I like it. It is the same suggested on the Ati website 1. Blue Plus 2. Aquablue Special 3. Purple Plus 4. Blue Plus 5. Aquablue Special 6. Blue Plus

Charbon will remove some entering the skimmer, but the exchange air/water is gonna happen mostly at the surface of the tank.

They came from this same source lol: http://reefbuilders.com/2011/04/01/lightning-maroon-clownfish/

They have low prices on both corals (ora included) and fish. But it is a hit or miss and Kim said: I've read a lot of bad reviews on nano reef. If you don't find the LMC's (Lighting Maroon Clowns) there, I have a pair for sale

Looks great! Good job Sps are looking great

I would read some reviews first...

We were referring to remote deep sand beds, not the deep sand bed in the tank. I agree with you for the cons of a sand bed in the tank. Nitrate cannot become phosphate. The nitrogen cycle and phosphorus cycle are two different things

I see you already have the new ORA Purple undata!

I think that for a reef tank a well build and sized RDSB ca do wonders for a fraction of the cost and risk compared to biopellets. We don't feed as much as a fish only tank or a fish breeding setup

I had the same problem. I solved switching to balling and the doser controller

Did you put some live rock with coralline in the tank? It needs to be seeded

2 articles on reefbuilders plus this... this is awesome. Thanks to all of you that made it possible

After Steve feedback it is definitely something to try...

If that's a 17,5 inches 70w sunpod, it is worth $150 alone, since they don't produce them anymore and they are really desired for many small nanos. Good deal $200 for all!

I'm with algae. I built a 73x36 without the vertical 2x4 and I had to add them later. I only had 2 40b on top of it, but it was enough to bend the 2x4 and the top. I had to use a car jack to do the job. The 2x4 do bend easily

I wish it was as simple as it seems from your lines. The problem of low cost hosting and css (xss) is not something we can control. I can have all my scripts up to date and secured but if you hack from a Mambo 4.6 beta installation that is on the server and that I don't even know of the existence.. there isn't much to do. I've been working in this business for over 12 years now and I'm still ask myself what kind of amusement a person can find on just running bots for hacking random websites. At least I used to have a specific target lol

I just spent my morning fixing one of my clients websites that was hacked. I had 2 other websites last week. Then there is our pnwmas.org which is constantly under attack. This message is for you, our dear hacker: why don't you get a reef tank! You can spend your free time enjoying this amazing hobby! How boring is to spend your life seeking the latest sql injection? Get a tank and a clownfish! (laugh)

Bump for some good deals, and for our punk rocker

Ryan, I think the media will last about 3 months if you are lucky. I'm reading here and there right now and, from a scientific point of view, it looks more like snake's oil. But who knows, maybe it can work well for our aquariums. We should give it a try. If it works as it should, the device should perform better than the hole in the wall.

Let me know where you can find some. I would like to give it a try too. During the winter I ran the air intake outside, but I didn't notice much difference in ph. Maybe it is gonna work this way

I think that you got the point: the low evaporation. You need to drip a good amount of kalk for the benefits you were mentioning. I used kalk alone for a couple of years and it worked great. I think corals grow faster for the po4 precipitation more than the 500ppm of ca in the tank. The only problem I experienced was too much coralline algae and the fact that dripping kalk is not easy and you can't control the effects of what you are doing: if there isn't enough co2 in the tank when you are dripping, you will release carbonate ions, with a lot of precipitation. You can add vinegar to avoid this, but this makes the hole setup even more complicated to manage

I was thinking about this a few days ago. Which media were you thinking to use?

Kalkwasser
