  1. Does anyone have pics of there calcium reactor? Preferably a CR-70, can’t seem to figure out how it is suppose to be hooked up. Can’t find any manuals on it anywhere online and can’t figure out where the input water is on it.
  2. Where do people get there tanks filled? I’m about to head over I hillsboro area doesn’t look like the tank I got today has much in it
  3. It’s a 180 display with about a 40 gal sump
  4. jeabo is what I use, it’s the dp-4 and I have had a lot of issues with it... i think my res will go dry like next week so instead of buying a new gallon set I am debating the switch
  5. Part of the fluctuation was that I would run out of 2 part and not notice or the dosing pump (I went cheap) would just stop sucking up the fluid and I wouldn’t catch it for a few days and have to play with it.
  6. Is the reactor typically in the sump or what? thats another thing Im kinda debating is because I dont know if i have enough room in my sump for a reactor... Any pictures of the reactors people are running would help. Its just so foreign to me that its kinda overwelming.
  7. So If you have a pH controller does that help with dialing it in?
  8. Is this something that is pretty much ready to go or is there more equipment that would be needed to get it running? Not framiliar with calcium reactors but I've been debating on getting one.
  9. I am starting to get curious about calcium reactors and how hard they are to get started using? I have never been able to get SPS growing well and am debating on getting a calcium reactor to help get my tank levels more stable to assist with that. What is everyones preference? I have always used B-ionics 2 part but am seriously considering switching. How much maintance does a calcium reactor cost? what media do people run in it? for minerals do you need to dose anything extra for trace elements? How often do you need to refill/change the media? how often do you test your parameters once its dialed in? I have seen a few people selling some used ones which is also adding to the possibility to switch.
  10. Ocean in a Box in Vancouver is another good one, I have heard the new owner is doing a really good job I havent been there since the new owner took over due to not having the time yet.
  11. I believe I have a par38 lying around believe its got white and blue bulbs so would be ok for softies and some LPS. It doesnt have many hours on it, it was on a frag tank which I took down after about a month if that. Im out in Scappoose
  12. Idk if you found one but i thought frank might have one for sale recently
  13. If all available when you come down next weekend ill take everything I mentioned above
  14. If you were down south near Portland I would take the brain, anthias, torch, and the hammer
  15. Is that a condy anemone or a torch coral? cant tell
  16. I should be free this weekend I'll hit you up as soon as I know for sure to try to plan a time to stop by have been told to check out your tank by many people on the forum
  17. looked like you have a big torch how much is it?
  18. I live in scappoose too, I might have to make a trip over to see what you got. very interested in a smaller colony and a couple acros and milliporaras.
  19. Think we're gonna keep it to the first people who messaged me about it so everyone gets a small colony, someone commented in the post saying they had one they are willing to frag might wanna hit up badxgillen.
  20. Hey Brian I sent you a pm maybe we can take a look at cutting it tonight gonna meet with him as soon as he gets off work around 5-6
  21. I'll let everyone know, right now there are about 8 people wanting to, I'm gonna pick up the colony tonight and try to see how we can cut it to where everyone is getting a nice colony
  22. O I thought he just didn't wanna try to sell the individual chunks. I could ask Jason to cut it I believe he has a saw up in Vancouver
