I wanted to give a shout out to Kessil for taking the time to do the AP9X demo's via zoom and making time to talk to customers. I just spent an hour with them, they listened to, and acknowledged my gripes for the AP700 (App and Firmware issues) and then went into the new AP9X which looks and...

I've seen the price of these things go crazy at the moment and wanted to check if anything I have is going to help me retire ;) Any specific ID's on these would be greatly appreciated.

Two times in the last 2 weeks I have driven here to find the store closed during their posted hours! Super frustrating.

Does anybody happen to have the firmware file for the latest 4.2 version of the AP700 firmware? NOT the firmware update app which I can download from the site, but the actual firmware file itself? When you run the updater there are 2 modes, one for an "Online" update and the other is "Manual"...

So I was thinking about this for a while and finally hooked up my Google Home to my Apex controller. To the point where I can now say the above and activate the Fish Feeding mode. Also hooked up a few other commands like "Stop the wavemakers" etc. For anyone interested, it was actually pretty...

I have a very healthy tank overall, been running with practically no intervention other than water changes / Kalk+2 supplements for close to a year now. Corals all look good, Shrimp looking great and fish too. Except for my one Cardinal that has developed some kind of "growth" on it's left gill...

So I am just starting to poke around with setting up my AFS. And my question is about the pellets food and getting them to sink! I've tried a few types and they all just seem to float at the surface. My clowns don't care, but my tangs and especially my Marine Beta are not flying up to the...

Woke up yesterday to not one, but 2 splits!!! 3rd one in about a month now. Everything in my tank looks pretty healthy, coral growth (SPS + LPS) is pretty good, fish healthy, numbers all look good so I am not sure why they are splitting! Anyway, looking to trade, or free to supporting members...

So @Apon set me on this path after peeking at my tank. Essentially using some magnetic rocks to create a floating shelf and get more real estate in my tank. Awesome idea and the best I have come across so far is this - https://fragtasticreef.com/magnetic-shelf-rock-ceramic/ Anyone know any...

What is the longest folks on here have left their tanks in auto feed / top off etc. mode? Are we all limited to 7 day max vacations once in this hobby or do folks do longer?

I recently bought a replacement for my Sicce PSK-750 pump on my Reef Octopus OCTX 200. Seems like this pump is not made any more so I got the Sicce PSK-1000. However this has slightly different outputs / inputs so I need to get sme adapters for both connecting to the Skimmer and the Venturi...

Is there any way to use the controller to manage a remote outlet? My controller is in my garage, watching my sump etc. But I'd like to also control my powerheads that are in my living room and not sure if there are any clever hacks to do this? Back in the day I was munging around with X10...

I know it's not much to go on, but essentially a rock with bright yellow/green 'polyps" ?? I'll try to get something clearer, but is it even coral?

I know this is the same day as the Pot Luck but I am a little stuck with other options! I am moving the LR/Livestock from a 100g in San Ramon to my new 120g tank in Dublin, along with all the equipment following tear down. If any folks are around locally I would really appreciate some help :)

I am starting to plan a tank swap from a friends 110g cylinder to my new 120g. Thread Here Here is my plan to date, would LOVE ideas/suggestions from the experts out here so I don't loose anything. I am moving from San Ramon to Dublin, so pretty close. Set up my tank here...

For a 120g with up to 100g sump, how big a heater should I be considering - out in Dublin, East Bay. Also - How much Live Sand should I consider for the 120?? Thanks!

Looking to get a good list of what folks are dosing regularly. I'm going to be doing Kalk +2 with my RO top off, but interested in the "usual suspects" that others are doing.

I am looking to plumb my drains/returns through a wall into my garage. Any advice/recommendation/experience on this would be welcomed before I just dive in. I have 2 overflows, so do folks make 2 sets of holes or plumb them to use one single hole etc? Thanks!

What's a good suggestion on test kits nowadays? I'm spinning up a full reef, hoping to lean more towards SPS so suggestions would be great to be prepped. Thanks.

So after a lot of thinking I am about to get back into this hobby after about a 7 or 8 years break. I used to have a 210 TruVu with the AquaSpace Light (3x 250w DE MH + 4 actinic PC's), Euro Reef Skimmer and a fairly simple sump. This time I am going with a little smaller 120g glass. I have my...
