How are you acclimating and for how long usually?

Interesting, I'm sure your abundance of available nutrients helps being in high PAR :p That's something I have to think about, do I have enough nutrients and flow for more light?

I was just wondering what everyone's timing is when acclimating corals to new light, more specifically when adding lights/increasing PAR. I'm sure it depends on how big the lighting change is, but what's a general guideline, a couple weeks?

I love when people bring other expertise that can be used in the hobby like pottery, photography, plumbing, 3-d printing (I just realized that's a lot of p's) and more, very cool of you!

I've heard there have been much less Japanese tourists in Hawaii due to how weak then yen is.

I like that idea, like having simple syrup premade when making cocktails lol

Because spraying RODI on corals is bad. On the podcast @Thales accidentally made a KCL spray solution with RODI instead of saltwater and it messed up some of his corals.

I remember hearing on one of the Reef Beef podcasts that you could use Potassium Chloride in a spray bottle instead and have it at ready instead of having to mix up a full batch of KCL dip. Has anyone done this before? From my understanding, you use the same ratio of KCL to saltwater to make...

Check out the first 2 minutes of this Tidal Gardens video. He talks about why he wouldn't setup a manifold to run off of the return pump:

Nice setup, cleeeaaaaaannn!

Maybe try cutting back on the nori a bit too. If they get too full on what you're feeding, they'll never clean your rocks. Put those fools to work! :p

FedEx Tony shall now be known as Tank Saver Tony :p @psidriven is the best!

You got that tank from me, which I got from @hyacinth! Very nice setup, the sump looks good!

What was your QT protocol for that designer clown?

Initially it was because the MP-10s could run down as low as 1% power, where the gyres I looked at had low ends that were more like 40-50%. This was all before I put acros in the tank. I might experiment if I can find a good deal on some used ones. Merlin Staff was under 260 PAR before all the...
