  1. I built my stand for my 180. The tank is 24 tall and with the hight over all its a pain in the a--. I cant reach the bottom. if I have to rearange things the hood can only be tilted up about 10 inches. A shorter tank could have made things alot easyer to work on.

  2. Maybe Im wrong but adding that much phyto to your tank every week will raise your phosphates. This would just be a guess in saying this as i dont know for sure' date=' Hey what do I know maybe you can add enough phosphate remover to counter act this. I would like to know what everyone else has to say about this.[/quote']

     

    When I ordered my supplies from FL. aqua farms I ask them about that. and they said there was no problem in adding the phyto straight to my system. I ask about there fertalizer and the efect on my corals and fish. and there answer was it wont heart them at all. if my phosphates do go up then I will start doing the water changes again.

  3. Not nice to tell a board member her Cowboy's suck..(nono) (laugh)

  4. I was just wondering if any one else is growing these. I have just started to grow these little guys and with the cost I should have done it a long time ago. I am growing the phyto in 5 gal. water jugs. I will be adding two 5 gal. jugs each week to my reef system. I am also hoping that this will also take the place of my reg. water changes each week. I am also hatching the brine shrimp in a 5 gal jug once every 3 days. as for the roties and copepods those will be in a 55 gal tank that I am just setting up. the cost for everthing was under 100 dollars. That price also included the one year supply of brine shrimp eggs { cysts } and the phyto. from Fl. aqua farms. Well I guest time will tell if I made the right choice. Please let me know what you think.
