  1. Hey Guys.... It's been a while. Still have the 65G RR in the garage, $200 takes it. I also have a great looking jbj 1/10 chiller I'd let go of for $300 OBO. Also also I have a ton of Aquadome water jugs still in the garage. $5 per. Thanks
  2. Bump water jugs from Aquadome still available (and lots of them) $5 apiece also have a 65 gallon Planet Aquariums tank and stand I can leak test for you, $150 takes both. no scratches on tank.
  3. Hey Guys This has been a long time coming: The getting-out-of hobby sale I should have had a while ago. Everything listed is in working order, and I have seen to it that the prices are slashed at least by 1/2 the current retail. Thanks for looking (Would like this gone by the end of the week). While offers are welcome, sucker punches aren't ;-). 1. 2 Kessil A350Ws w/ Goosenecks ($200 takes both) SOLD 2. Neptune Dos ($120) SOLD 3. APEX probes for PH, Salinity, ORP w/ Probe holder ($150 takes all) 4. 2 Different Refractometers and a PH probe ($50 for each refractometer, $20 for PH meter) SOLD 5. TUNZE pump 1073.5 Silent ($100) 6. Hannah Checker ALKALINITY ($20) SOLD 7. Reef Octopus Space-Saver Classic 150 ($90) 8. Random Buffers and Test Kits ($50 takes all of it. I have others that aren't even pictured here I can throw in for free) 9. 15 or so 5-gallon Austin Aqua-Dome bottles, $5 each.
  4. awesome work BPB! glad to see your tank successful after all the hard work. You still doing CPs? Terraforums has been dead for a while, lot of the regulars have moved on. I abandoned the outdoor bog and am doing a highland tank build now, if your interested I'm tracking it on FlyTrapCare forums! Sorry to hijack. Keep up the good work.
  5. This truly is the strangest case of bad SPS luck that I've seen. The fact that you have great luck with literally every type of coral (including SPS) other than Acropora really makes me think that its something specifically targeting the genus, as others said here. Have you done that Triton test yet? I'm really curious to see what the result is. I really do think you'll find despite all the heartache that the resolve to this issue is just in reach, considering throughout this tank's timeline you have eliminated every other variable that could be affecting the corals. Also do you run carbon on the tank? If it's any consolation, your tank is still pretty awesome looking.
  6. !!! What are the ODDS! I'm Hamata-Honzo off Terraforums! that's freaking crazy how coincidences like this work out... man!
  7. Bpb I completely agree you probably have years more experience than me in the SPS world. Just offering a possibility. I know the cause of death for SPS can be a headache... Just trying to eliminate all possible causes.
  8. Nightfuries tho Btw I think the alkalinity for a sps dominant tank is best kept around 9-13. Until I raised it from 7.5 I had STN on everything. IME when you don't have an obvious cause of STN (rough handling, corallivores- is that a word?) it will usually be a low alk/ high phos. At least that's why I think your SPS didn't like it... Of course I'm just saying what Imy experience was.
