Yeah I agree. I didn’t really notice it until I looked for it. I can paint it black (or cover with electrical tape. And then add some white in one end :). Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’ve been planning for and setting up a frag tank plumbed into the Reefer for awhile now. Finally got it finished over the weekend :). I really wanted it to look like it was built into the adjacent Reefer, so I wanted the dimensions to 20” wide (width of one of the Reefer cabinet doors). A...

This is the main reason for me. I discard all plugs and whatever is encrusted on the plugs. So it’s easier when it’s glued on the end instead of the side. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Nice canopy. I think you’ve got plenty of ventilation since the top is open. Mine is much more cramped with the 4 T5s. I should probably open mine more on the top. Next project! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks Liz for the support. I doubt apex really cares that much about me. I just think it’s scary because if the water was room temp, like most ATO reservoirs are, then I would not have been alerted to any problem, and the whole tank would have crashed. It’s also one of the dangers of having...

Do you have temperature correction turned on in the advanced salinity settings? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yeah, I’m planning on letting evap and hypertonic auto water change bring me back up. Will probably take awhile. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yeah I think the aquascape is pretty cool too. Good job. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It woulda been a lot harder to talk about if I left it alone and the tank crashed. So the apex temp sensor did its job giving me a heads up that something was wrong. But the salinity probe definitely failed. Wonder if @jonmos75 has any insight into why the delay happened. Sent from my...

A near miss yesterday. I was working on some plumbing and needed access to the back of my stand. So I removed the tubing from the autowater change masterflex head to remove the pump from the cabinet. Normally the heads compress the tubes so when not rolling, it is sealed shut. I forgot that...

Yeah, with the newer software upgrade it has seemed much more consistent. Before my app wouldn’t be able to find the lights and I would have to periodically set everything back up again (annoying). But it has been good for awhile. Maybe it’s kessil’s way to tell us not to change our lights so...

Individual fish. Most would say that melanarus wrasse are peaceful. Mine certainly is. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I don’t get why you guys are talking about TTM and fallow periods. Why? No new livestock, no ich in the tank. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Oh I thought when you said “breaking down the tank and maybe restarting” you meant you were considering breaking down the tank and quitting. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

MAYBE restarting? Uh oh, that’s horrible. Restarting wouldn’t be too bad. It is a small tank, not much livestock. Just hope you don’t transfer the dinos into the 40B with you. Unless you start cycling a tank first and keep the old rock out. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Can you extend the wiring and move your ballast out of harms way? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Agree with @JVU. The bubbles in the skimmer catch larger molecules, proteins and other organic byproducts. Once it’s broken down to phosphate and nitrate the skimmer can’t clear it. That’s how carbon dosing plays a role. It feeds bacteria that take up the nutrients and form it into molecules...

Sounds like a great beginning. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yeah, really sucks. Old heaters and cheap powerheads are two things that pop into mind that don’t stand the test of time well. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
