    Nitrate testing variances between LFS and Hanna?

    So last week I decided to get a Hanna HR Nitrate checker. My Nyos kit is easy enough to use, but the color differences is crazy. 12 is one color and the next is 25. So any color in between those two is an educated guess. I have used it three times and gotten test results of 8 - 8.8 Nitrates on...

    Need some lighting help

    Wednesday night my wife did an OTA update to her Fluval 4.0 Plant and it bricked. We have tried everything to get this light working again, and it will just not respond. We have had the light for 4 weeks, and luckily the seller is allowing us to return it. BTW Fluval's customer support sucks...

    Sump vs HOB vs Canister

    My wife is absolutely in love with my 32 biocube even though it only has the two clowns. The clowns have so much more personality than her tetras. So seeing as Petco has all their tanks 50% off she is seriously thinking about getting an Imaginarium 60 gallon breeder tank (not as tall, but...

    Power Head for my 32 biocube

    So in the near future I would like to replace the power head on my 32 gallon biocube. It works, but has no adjustable flow rate. I would like to get something that pulses or will mimic ocean currents. I might be asking for too much as I know the tank is only 32 gallons, and the flow from the...

    Can snails crash my calcium level?

    I am not sure what is going on. My tank has no corals, no fish, only 7 snails. Three trochus, two turbo, and two nassarius. The capacity of my tank is 32 gallons, more likely has 28ish due to rocks and such. My calcium level is normally 390ish, and last night it tested at 60 - 70 ppm! I was a...

    I don’t think it’s hair algae

    So what might it be? Sorry the Vegas don’t have white light. This the best I can get of it.

    What are you currently using for testing, and do you plan to upgrade? A pole!

    A simple pole to see what every one out there in the BAR family is using. I have left this multiple choice, as I know not every test by every brand is the best.... you might use Red Sea Alk, but Nyos Mag.... If so, please comment :) I shall start with that I have Milwaukee salinity tester at...

    New to salt water

    Hello all! I was lured here by SlingFox on R2R. Kinda new to salt water. I have had fresh water aquariums on and off in my life (rental agreements can be a pain). But never a saltwater tank. During that time I built a 180 gallon mixed reef tank, with stand, chiller, refugium, and 4 AI Vegas to...
