  1. I have this hammer and over the past month or so, it’s been receiving… first I lost the one head and it’s now taking over the second… is it worth trying to save or should I get rid of it to prevent any pest maybe.?. Idk

    ive dipped in coral rx, peroxide, and iodine.

    I was dosing trace elements and my zoas lost a good amount of color, I’ve since stopped. All other hammers are doing great-ish… 

    sal 1.025

    alk 8.5

    mag might be high, my corals don’t seem to be consuming it.

    nitrates are at about 2ppm

    phospates are also pretty low, maybe .25 ppm

    Ph 8+
     

    im new so I’m not sure if it may be a pest or some sort of infection maybe…

    my tank is also small so idk if maybe it’s too much flow

     

  2. Hey All.!.

    i have a 20 gallon long with a HOB filter, I know, yawn…

    anyways I need a lid for it I’m currently using eggcrate but i feel like it really messes up my PAR on the sides.

    What are you all using, I’m kinda looking into the Red Sea, but it’s either $54 or like $90-something…

    any cool diy suggestions.?.

     

  3. As the title says,

    Is there anything I should do out there.?. It’s gonna be my first Reef expo and want to make the best of it…

    I hope to get a picture with Dr. Tim… lol

    Maybe March from FragboxTV…

    idk if I would risk buying a coral, tsa in California can be pretty intense but who knows.?.

  4. Hey.!. I’m also new to the hobby but welcome.!. It’s been a great 4 months for me… started on April fools… lol

    From my experience, the cycling process went fairly smooth… I went to it not knowing a thing but I tested like crazy, sometimes twice a day for my 20 gallon and when levels of ammonia and nitrite got too high, perform small water changes…

    after about 3 weeks maybe less, I added my first zoas… they have all done great… just yesterday, I added my first acro… we’ll see how it does…

    You can definitely do it, and the more you learn beforehand the better you’ll be…

    don’t add too fast and quarantine if you can…

  5. Hey guys.!. Hope you all are having a great day.!. 
     

    I’m looking to make a Timelapse video of my tank. Has anyone here ever done anything similar.?.

    I bought a Wyze Cam V3, but it doesn’t have a wide lense, and the quality kinda sucks in live view… I’m gonna try the Wyze cam that rotates 360*.

    I also have the flipper deepsee, and blue light filter.
