What kinda pump do you use for the di stage?

Alright since I just realised that ive givin no information. I have a 4 stage 150 gpd brs rodi system my input tds is 174tds out of the membrane is 2-3 tds Im on well water Iron is 4ppm Hardness is 9gpg Ph 7 I go through a resin refill in about 250 gallons of water

Has anyone made a degassing chamber for their rodi? Im burning through di resin really fast

Bummer I work weekends ! Glad everyone had a good time!

Only 4 more years until their current patent is up if they dont get an extension.

20% off on brs. Just sharing!

Yeah I also did but their shipping was 120 bucks for 5 of them lol

In search of some. Not sure if we have any local breeders.

It will be for eradication. I plan to personally qt all fish that go into my larger tank and just want to be setup as good as I can be.

Say hi to march from fragbox! For sure

Should I even bother with salifert copper test or just get the hannah? Im setting up my qt right now. And other than prazi/copper power/metro and formalin or ruby is there anything I should be trying to get ahold of?

Okay I have a few smaller nice pieces of dry rock that I wanted to put some plug holes in.

When drilling dryrock do you use masonry bits or standard bits ?

Yes this is for my 20g aio. I havent tested a fresh batch of salt yet. Though that would be good to do. Actually all three bags of salt I have are from different batches after looking

There is a donate option of adopt a coral where is was explained that you would be sent a frag from the gbr with an rfid tag it was explained in a livestream from reefbum with one of the guys running the organization.

Just wanted to pass this along as a way to support the effort of coral conservation and a way to be part of the movement. https://coralbiobank.org/

Had to look but all my standard braced aquariums the black brace on the bottom holds the glass up, they all rest on their brace.

Thats a very important parameter I negleted to post its 35ppm i always mix to 35ppm I use a refactometer and I check calibration everytime I use it ive read to many horror stories about them not to. And I dry mix the salt as well before mixing with ro water

Okay so just for the sake of getting it out there im using bags of fritz rpm and I do a biweekly water change of 30% no skimmer 7/27/2022 Ph: 8.0 Api test not confident Nitrate: 16ppm Redsea test Phos:.08 Redsea test Cal:460 salifert Alk:8.3 salifert Mag:1410-1440 salifert Waterchange: 8/2/2022 8/4/2022 Ph: 8.0 Nitrate: 12ppm Phos: .04 Cal:470 Alk:9.3 Mag:1470-1500 Im not sure why it went up I retested everything 2x today just to make sure Using salifert Cal/Alk/Mag I stir up the salt before I mix and I mix without heat. Advertised Cal/Alk/Mag Cal: 440 Alk: 8.5 Mag: 1425 Just thought I would share my params

Okay I was wondering if people just make their own I have a decent chunk of 1/4 acrylic that I can put holes in and make a rack out of thanks for the info.

Ill soon be in the market for some frag racks and was wondering what everyone uses?

I was just looking at the tort frags last night! If you have frags left by next week ill pick one up!

How are you guys removing the frags from the plugs with a scalpel or razer blade?

I was curious. I havent mounted any coral yet because I wanted to know the par numbers before I mounted them. I think im going to use super glue to hold them in place what do you guys use?

Im curious how many people remove/break their frag plugs before final placement of their corals
