    Frozen food choice and have you had any issues?

    My CBB is in a tank full of greedy A holes. Anthias and a couple tangs make short work of anything that goes through the feeders, so my window of feeding the CBB is fairly slim and when the others are already stuffed. Hopefully the price on the AF4 drops tomorrow.

    Frozen food choice and have you had any issues?

    I use Rods when I need to get my PO4 up. It's been a while, but still have it. The chunky pieces go to my nems, although I have experienced issues with that after using the herbivore blend. I feed my CBB daily with piscine mysis. Drop in a chunk to a feeding cup and let it thaw in tank. He...

    Patrick's 81G - the last dance

    They are strapped to the articulating arm and ran through the 80/20. Tried to make it as low profile as possible

    Patrick's 81G - the last dance

    Ran the wires while I wait for the snow to clear. The light spill is ridiculous, so I'm going to need some lenses to cut that down.

    Black Friday deals

    Out of the ICPs ive tried, I like oceamos and ATIs. I plan on stocking up a years worth once the code is active. As for the geo reactor, I agree, its beautiful. Exactly what id run if I went the ozone route. I just lack the space for its footprint underneath my stand if I were to pair it with a...

    Black Friday deals

    Ive been stocking up on consumables with BRS with the discounts they currently offer. Use the military/first responders code to get an extra 5% off. It can be used multiple times and stacks with the sale price. Geo is offering a discount on their reactors now and until BF. Www.geosreef.com...

    Patrick's 81G - the last dance

    I'm hoping so brotha. I'm wishing I had the dimensions of your 112 to fit more right about now haha. The stags will definitely cut into the swimming space with their upward growth. I'm thinking about swapping those out for more plating acros before I get too attached to them. If I could get...

    Patrick's 81G - the last dance

    I'm not sure if id want the cure if there was one..haha..I should consider myself fortunate that I ran out of space, especially with the holidays coming up. I do need to clear up the ones left on the sand. Restraint seems to be harder to practice than patience nowadays. :p

    Thinking about switching salt

    I would focus on your main elements and organics first. Salinity and alk- both of these should be rock solid and you have a good feel for your consumption. Adding traces changes their consumption and not having a good idea of your tanks swing can make it a moving target. Ca,mg - similar to...

    Patrick's 81G - the last dance

    A little over 10 month update. Corals are starting to grow in and I'm beginning to realize some of the placement is not ideal. Shading has become a problem and things are already require a bit of a haircut. Getting tools in there to cut is already pretty tight and I imagine things getting even...

    Thinking about switching salt

    FWIW there have been MANY successful reefs maintained with the good old IO. POTO uses IO and they achieve colors i strive for. Even the best salt in the world (whatever it may be) couldn't hold a candle to good husbandry and knowing your system. As long as you find the one that fits your...

    Thinking about switching salt

    One other thing to note is that this salt is super fine. It mixes well and clean, but if pouring it into a dry bucket of scooping it out, watch those clouds..my eyes learned the hard way. Out of the mixes I've tried: HW Wein, Tropic Marin Pro, RPM blue, & Nyos...AF has one of the cleanest...

    Thinking about switching salt

    I use AF reefsalt and have found it fine. I test alk when doing water changes to avoid swings and find them to be pretty consistent at 8 DKH when mixed to 1.026 with the TM hydrometer. It lacks vanadium, selenium, flouride, and bromine, so If traces matter heavily to you, know you'll have to...

    Woe Day Scammer

    Crucified? Jesus would have told Danh about the magnet. Just give him his money back and be done with it. Go sell it on FB marketplace with some transparency. At least people know what is wrong with it and what they're getting into.
