  1. I didn't see anything about 2024.
  2. Dosing Ammonium Chloride in water produces ammonia plus hydrochloric acid. Dosing Ammonium Bicarbonate produces ammonia plus CO2, which means dosing ammonia and carbonic acid. This is how calcium reactors work, the CO2 pumped into the water produces carbonic acid which dissolves the dead coral media. Both of these methods of dosing ammonia will lower the pH in the aquarium. I don't know how much, but I don't like anything that lowers the pH in a coral growing aquarium. Neither method will raise phosphate, which also needs to be dosed if your nutrients go too low in an aquarium. Maybe just feed the fish and corals more and/or remove less of them via filtration/skimming/etc.
  3. I will be bringing a food grade blue 50 gallon barrel with top to the meeting. I will give it away. Mark
  4. I have a clean blue food barrel with removable top that I am not going to use.
  5. Don't forget Denver. That was my first MACNA.
  6. I didn't know clove polyps could look so good. Those are by far the best cloves I've ever seen.
  7. I have an Ozotech model OZ2PCS-V/SW I would like to sell. PM me if interested.
  8. You can sure raise phyto Dave, but are you able to raise pods too? How is your pod breeding going?
  9. I saw a YouTube video about SeaTak today. It looks like it will be handy for attaching corals to rocks or rocks to each other, under water. They said it should be availoable in 6 to 8 weeks.
  10. I second @obrien.david.j
  11. Thank you to Chief and all of the officers for your time and effort to continue our club!
  12. I have a reef octopus 170SSS if you are interested in a slightly bigger skimmer.
  13. How about posting a picture of the vertical portion of the light holder. I need to see how I will have to attach the mount behind the aquarium.

    I recommend Iwaki pumps for pressure or high head applications.
  17. This was a really enjoyable get together and fascinating lecture. I would like to thank all of those who helped make this meeting happen. The strength of our club is based on our members and especially a group of dedicated people who always come through for us. I would like to thank them for their continuing work on our behalf.
  18. I've got a tub of hydraulic cement you can have.
