    Pink Gonipora, Flower Pot, Coral not doing well since I got it from the Coral Kids frag swap

    The Goni is looking better. The flow is the best flow in my tank. Same side as the pump output and my wave pump is on the opposite side so it pumps over there and hits the wall. I put some GFO in and my Phosphate is dropping about 0.03 per day. I have been putting some Brightwell Magnesium...

    Pink Gonipora, Flower Pot, Coral not doing well since I got it from the Coral Kids frag swap

    Yeah. I am hoping it does not get much bigger. I only have a 10 gallon tank. Maybe a bad choice for such a small tank.

    Pink Gonipora, Flower Pot, Coral not doing well since I got it from the Coral Kids frag swap

    I have not checked Magnesium lately. I used to check it regularly but after a while it seemed the only things that changed were the Nitrate, Phosphate and Alkalinity so I check those regularly. I started keeping a log so I can keep track of what I am adding and what the readings are so I can...

    Pink Gonipora, Flower Pot, Coral not doing well since I got it from the Coral Kids frag swap

    The corner it is in is just under the pump outlet and I have a wave maker. Also the reason I use Kalkwasser and All For Reef is when I first started a reef tank my Alkalinity was always low so I was constantly hand dosing Soda Ash. I bought a doser and starting using Kalk and my problem was...

    Pink Gonipora, Flower Pot, Coral not doing well since I got it from the Coral Kids frag swap

    I have an ATO for evaporation. I tuned the Kalk in using a dosser. I was doing 30ml a day and as my Alkalinity stabilized it was down to about 8ml and it seems to be happy there. I use All for Reef for the trace elements. I am slowly upping the AfR. I started at 2ml, now 3ml and will go to...

    Pink Gonipora, Flower Pot, Coral not doing well since I got it from the Coral Kids frag swap

    Hello Everyone. I paid for a grab bag at the Cali Kids frag Swap and I got a Pink Gonipora. I acclimated the coral, let it float, added water over some time and finally put it into my tank. I put it in the corner at the bottom of my tank because I read online to put it into a lower light part...

    Need advice on Acrylic or Poly tank cover.

    I already have an ATO. I think it is just a waste to keep having so much water evaporate. This was just what I was looking for. The only think I don't like is the netting looks like it is 1/4 inch. I already upgraded to 1/8 inch because I already lost a goby. Found it on top of the net. I...

    Need advice on Acrylic or Poly tank cover.

    Hello Everyone, I need advice on getting a tank cover for a Nuvo 15. We already have a net tank cover but we have to top off about 1 gallon a week and it is not even summer yet. I was thinking of getting one made at TAP plastics. I cannot find a ready made one online. I will get a 2 inch...

    Jebao 3.4 doser price just dropped to $60

    I am doing the same thing. I got a 4 banger and using 2 and other two will be spares. You can buy Spare complete pumps for about $2 each on AliExpress and if you buy over $10 you get free shipping. For the price I decided to take my chances.

    3/3 Frag swap at Cali Kid Coral

    Sounds good. I will see if my daughter wants to come out. She got a tank after I set mine up and we have slowly been adding to our tanks we break them in. Right now we have only a few corals in each tank.

    ATO Recommendations?

    That is close if not exactly what I am doing. Thank you for posting. I got a 3D printer so I am printing the box.

    3/3 Frag swap at Cali Kid Coral

    My tank is less than a year old so I don't really have any frags to swap. Is it worth me coming on out? I got one tiny Rasta Zoa I am trying to get larger but that is probably months away from being impressive enough to give away. Thanks Richard

    Jebao 3.4 doser price just dropped to $60

    I have one of these and it works well. Price just dropped from $75 to $60. You need 2.4Ghz WiFi for it to work. Does not work with 5Ghz. So far so good if you are on a budget...

    ATO Recommendations?

    That is ok. I will have 2 sensors. The smart plug is just set for a maximum about of time. I can give it 5 or 10 extra minutes if I want because the sensors will shut it off but if the sensors fail the timer will keep it from running all day long.

    ATO Recommendations?

    I have looked at all those and I have some ideas. I also looked at some DIY and here is my idea. Build one with a relay and here is one of two of my ideas. I can plug it into a Wemo smart plug or some other smart plug. I calculate my water loss per day and lets say it takes 5 minutes on...

    ATO Recommendations?

    Hello Everyone, I am looking at getting an ATO. I need two for small 15 and 10 gallon tanks. Any recommendations. I see them from $39 - $200+ and DIY which can cost as much as the low cost ones. Optical or Mechanical? Thanks in advance. I was searching around the forums but didn't see much...

    What do you think about this for Dosing container. Found them on Craigslist for $2 each.

    That is what I was thinking of but I saw these and thought they looked similar to what is sold for dosing. The dosing containers are crazy expensive for plastic.

    What do you think about this for Dosing container. Found them on Craigslist for $2 each.

    I looked it up. That is exactly what they are. Says FDA approved for food. I was also looking as some squarish mason jars. I do canning when I harvest from the garden so I got plenty of them.
