    Cost of MH vs T5 vs LED

    Hey guys, I don’t want to derail the thread, but I have a quick question about map pricing. I just did some research on map pricing, and the article said the product has to be advertised at that price, but may be sold for less in store. Online, stores can make the price less once the item is in...

    Man people and their trucks at the hardware store...

    ‘Merica. This reminds me a bit of the line from the movie slingblade, the “it ain’t got no gas in it” moment.

    Manifold

    I would think it might be a hassle to make and install a manifold when a tank is already plumbed and running. Manifolds allow you to power the returns, reactors, fuge, etc, all from one return pump

    Not only is that damsel that ibn posted very beautiful and peaceful, it also ate all of my flatworms!

    Rock Ready question

    I bought my ammonia at ace, it was cheap. Make sure it is unscented. I would add 2-3 drops for 30 gallons or so

    New dedicated (and mostly nem proof) BTA tank...

    Randy on reef2reef physically added a controlled amount of that aluminum compound when the leathers had a reaction. The marinepure material probably releases less aluminum than randy added, and I would guess the marine pure releases larger particles, which might not be as harmful

    Nassarius Snails

    The part I love most about this hobby is the diversity in life that these ecosystems hold. I enjoy watching the “zombie snails” come out of the sand when I feed, or watching a pod colony buzz around inside a tiny cavern, and even the micro brittles waving their arms around. It’s always nice to...

    New dedicated (and mostly nem proof) BTA tank...

    He definitely saw a negative response at a certain level with leather corals. I use the spheres and haven’t noticed any issues from them.

    Nassarius Snails

    I’ve definitely had trochus babies before, the biggest one I saw was maybe half a dime size. I’m pretty sure I’ve had nassarius babies as well, they had a cone shaped shell, but I never found one bigger than maybe 2mm

    Jorahx 90g

    Vinegar was my best friend for cleaning coralline off the walls and overflow when I cleaned a tank I bought used

    Embrace Cyanobacteria

    Well, Cyanobacteria did cause the first mass extinction on earth, and provided the oxygen for life as we know it today

    Yasha and Pistol m.i.a.

    I’m not sure if mine eats pods, or maybe eats some food when I leave the room, because I literally didn’t see him for 2 months and assumed he was dead, but then I saw him last week. I’ve had him for about a year and a half or so

    Tank Journal : Converting Fresh water to a Saltwater Tank

    Stability is the most important aspect for SPS. People say to wait at least 6 months before getting sps, so that the tank is stable nutrient wise. You shouldn’t have nutrient spikes at that point. That’s very important, but I think keeping alk, PH, Cal, and mag stable is the most important. If...
