    Kamoer X1 and F1 pump inner tubing replacement

    I'm not sure what size the X1 and F1 use, but search up Kamoer Parmed BPT on alixpress for the right kind of tubing. https://www.aliexpress.us/w/wholesale-Kamoer-Pharmed-BPT.html?spm=a2g0o.home.search.0

    Looking for help to relocate an established tank.

    Add a date and time, or range of dates, and people can see if they're free to help. I have a 60 gallon Rubbermaid stock tub you can borrow but I'm in Dublin so a bit further away. In the temporary holding tank, having enough circulation/aeration and heating will be sufficient for a day or two...

    Remove mushroom UPDATE: KEEP THEM ALIVE

    Get a metal boba straw and connect some vinyl tubing to it. Use this when doing a water change. Use the straw to scrape away at the mushrooms and the guts and bits will get sucked up. https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/7139HYPUKpL._AC_SL1500_.jpg Example from r2r

    FINALLY GOT THE PAR METER AND THIS ARE MY RESULTS

    Hm. Last thing I can think of is if any of your LEDs are dead. Try turning all colors on then taking a picture of the LEDs with sunglasses to check. Or if you have it hooked up to an Apex, turn all colors to 100% and see if the wattage consumption equals the listed amount at ~95 watts

    Macroalgae at any shops?

    What kind are you looking for? Cheato or something more decorative?

    FINALLY GOT THE PAR METER AND THIS ARE MY RESULTS

    What are your color settings? If it's mostly blue then PAR will be low. How's your water surface? If you're not properly setting your overflow to remove that oily surface scum that will drastically inhibit light transmission.

    Which corals would you never (again) put into your tank?

    This. Zoa gardens are bullshit. One will eventually overtake the others

    Which corals would you never (again) put into your tank?

    Mystic sunset encrusting monti. Only the growth edges look good and it's aggressive so will kill corals in its path. Pain in the butt to remove

    The Mangrove Seahorse Hitching Post

    Haven't tried but I'm starting with freeze dried mysis since they're accustomed to frozen mysis. Seahorses are very much visual eaters that inspect their prey so I wanted to mimic their current diet. From what I hear it's really difficult with wild caught seahorses. These seahorses are captive...

    Featured FREE '24 BC Adam Bomb SPS Growout Contest

    This is going to be interesting to see how it colors up under different conditions knowing they came from the exact same colony. Mine is looking PC Rainbow-esque with some green and yellow under tones.

    The Mangrove Seahorse Hitching Post

    Today was a successful progress day in terms of feeding! With their need of daily feedings, going out of town for an extended time would pose a problem since i hear most seahorses only eat live or frozen shrimp. I've been using the same method I do for training finicky fish. For two weeks I've...
